I do my best to keep a good collection of Joss/Serenifly/Felicia Day type links on my blog. Just doing my share to advance the world domination of excellent writing. Besides, if Browncoats can contribute (mightily) to charities and someday (we hope) manage to change the world for the better, imagine what we could do to promote new and exciting Web delivered TV.
I’ve been raving about The Guild for months and happily introduced others to Dr. Horrible’s Sing-along Blog (flan site link). Ok. So I nagged them until they gave in and watched the episodes online. We can be gracious and forgive their previous ignorance for they have found the holy grail of Web TV and have hopped on board the flan-dom with a vengeance.
Today’s my chance to rave about The Legend of Neil. According to the blurb on the site:
The Legend of Neil is a webseries produced by Effinfunny.com, Atom.com, and Comedy Central. Written by Sandeep Parikh & Tony Janning, this series follows the reluctant adventures of Neil- a gas station attendant from Jersey who gets sucked into ‘The Legend of Zelda’ and has to fight his way out.
It’s a hoot. Don’t take my word for it though. Hop on over and check it out for yourselves. Savvy Guild watchers will notice a few familiar faces in the episodes. The Guild‘s Zaboo (Sandeep Parikh) is one of the sets of brains behind the Legend of Neil and Felicia Day makes an appearance as a fairy in episode 3. Suffer through the commercials at the beginning of each episode – it’s worth it! Childhood memories take on an adult feel in this spoof of the Legend of Zelda. The old man is a hoot and the series is well worth following.
One caveat: Legend of Neil is NOT safe for work…

The pre-order free shipping deal is no longer available, but you can get your copy of the first season DVD at http://www.watchtheguild.com/. Mine arrived yesterday and I think I’ll spend some time watching all the special features this afternoon.
