Lord Sir Viscount Genghis Napoleon Stabbington Stabbington III deftly exposits his application to the Evil League of Evil.

A mere formality, of course.

Includes a rendition of the rarely-heard Stabbington Anthem.

His Lordship politely suggests that you watch in high quality. It's the done thing.

Winner of Joss Whedon's Dr Horrible contest.

    I really LOVED this one. It was funny but surprisingly poignant at the same time - you created a really well-thought-out character with a great backstory, and the acting was wonderful! He's kind of twitchy and crazy, but at the same time so insecure and angsty and sad and conflicted - really well done. I especially like the way he says "The old bugger...I really hated him...", while crying and trying NOT to cry. Really, really good stuff!

    That is an amazing John Cleese facial impression.

    Just discovered this via the Dr. Horrible DVD extras. It's amazing! The combination of humour & pathos work perfectly with what you'd expect from Joss Whedon. Plus, that is a well-done Monty Python homage. Jolly good show - give my regards to the Lord, and I hope he made it into the ELE.

    Here I am, watching countless Applications, when suddenly MR DARCY shows up. Absolutely love it. Lord Stabbington, your application is my favorite and you have made my day.
  • @julestrudelle
    Well done, sir! Your slightly unhinged quality will do you credit with the League, I'm sure.
  • Recognized this guy (orlando seale) instantly when watching the IT Crowd and West Wing. Crazy.
  • @flibbertygibbet
    The three videos that I still want to watch after years have passed since the DVD came out are this one, The Reverend and Tur-Mohel. I'm still not sure which one is my favorite. Oh and also "Sign Language" by this creator has long been one of the best shorts I've seen. Edit to fix the title of Sign Language. What was I thinking?

    I'm a GM/DM for DnD and maybe other systems. I'm working on a super hero/villian game, and Lord Stabbington will be a great addition. :) An homage.

    Well, I looked up Evil League of Evil applications on Youtube on a whimsy, and I am certainly glad I did so now. Your story was a moving one, sirrah, and if I had any say in such matters (which I may yet, some day), you'd be in the Evil League of Evil faster than... well, something that is fast, regardless. I look forward to hearing of your later endeavours.
  • Good show old chap! I just read a dvd review that mentioneed this video by name, so I guess you are in the ELE!
