Arrested Development

fast becoming one of my favorite shows. Anybody catch last night's episode? not sure if it was new but man i almost pissed myself laughing. great cast too, w/ Dave Thomas from SCTV & the guy who used to play Super Dave Osbourne on Bizarre. Malcolm In The Middle's cameo was pretty funny too.

I've only watched it a couple times and I find it somewhat entertaining, though I would have to say that I haven't really got into it. It's alright, good concept

Nice to see other people getting into it :)

FOX almost cancelled this show (even though it won many awards including the Emmy for best comedy) because of lacklustre ratings.

This is definitely one of my fave shows on TV. I'm surprised something this intelligent and witty is on FOX. Seriously, every episode has great one-liners.

"At Risk Male Youths"
*rings doorbell* "STEVE HOLT!"
"UNCLE MIKE!"
"WHAT THE HELL!"

Most of the one-liners are inside/running jokes though. But I think they still work haha.

i love gob.

i haven't watched any of the third season yet, but my friend and i have just rented all of season one on dvd. that's the only way to go. i'll wait until season three comes out on dvd...i can't imagine waiting a whole week before seeing the next episode.

Tim I could've lent you Season one for free :p

Season three is much better than two so far. Two was still good, but the humour felt a little dumbed down to appeal to more (more stupid) viewers.

maybe just because it's been off for a month, but i rewatched last week's mole episode and couldn't stop laughing AGAIN.

my dad said there were two 'new' ones back to back on monday though, was that true?
