If you are a big fan of Joss Whedon then you are going to love this. These things seem to be all the craze now. Webseries started off as a way of lesser experienced film makers show casing themselves and making a pretty good, low budget series of episodes about 5 minutes in length. However, webseries seem to have grown beyond the amateurs and the professionals now seem to be embracing them. Some such as Battlestar Galactica: The Resistance and Heroes: Going Postal add up to become almost like a hidden episodes of their actual parent TV shows providing those that watch the webseries' with more information, but ultimately not being essential to the other fans of the TV shows that haven't watched the webseries'. But the professionals also seem to be making stand alone webseries such as this new creation from Joss Whedon (the creator of Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Angel, Firefly, Serenity and the upcoming show Dollhouse scheduled to air on Fox in January of next year).

The webseries has 3 episodes or acts (as they are called in this show) totaling at just over 42 minutes. But hopefully that is not the end of the webseries as Joss Whedon said at this years San Diego Comic-Con that he would love to make a 4th act.

View the trailer below or click the image above to watch the webseries.

UPDATE: The webseries is now only available to watch online if you live in the US. So if you live in the UK or any where else then you're just going to have to wait for the DVD. But unfortunatly it could be a long wait.
