Arrested Development

schizophrenicroom · 03.25.2006, 09:38 PM

Inspired by the The Prisoner thread, I must make one for another genius show. Anyone else watch this?

One of my favorite episodes has to be where the Bluths hold a funeral for George Sr., and GOB acts as his body because George is supposed to be dead. Ahh. It's hilarious.

I have both seasons that are out. Man it is hilarious. I hope it doesn't go to showtime. I don't get showtime.

I know, I don't get it either. I was really wishing ABC would take it up, but Showtime went ahead and took it.

Is it official?

I love Arrested Development. Hilarious. Damn shame that Fox couldn't handle it.

Pretty much, Alex.

I love all the little jabs they'd give Fox about their schedule cancellation, like this whole thing they had about a company cutting their order of model houses from 22 to 18 (Fox had just cut their episode order from 22 to 18).

I gave this show more then enough chances but never got into it. I didn't hate it but also didn't see it as being the funniest show on television. There were moments where I would laugh pretty good, but only at moments, and other times I could really take it or leave it. For me it just didn't live up to its hype.

this show was my fave.. it's sadly pretty much over; showtime was interested but mitch hurwitz (the creator guy) said he didn't want to continue. argh. that was pretty much the best show ever.

Yeah it totally deserved to be cancelled

<edit: oh well 3x1 beat me to it> , the creator of Arrested Development is working on new projects & has recently opted-out of Showtime's offer to buy the series. It's over.

in other showbiz news, Linklater's anticipated A Scanner Darkly PKD adpatation is going to be filmed with digital cameras & then "painted over" graphically with MacIntosh computers just like Waking Life was...the whole movie.

First time i saw it i hated it, but the second time i fell in love with it. Why the fuck does south park get past the NINTH season or whatever it is now, while truely brilliant shows like this are cancelled? Its a sad world.

The lady that plays Lindsey is Ellen Degeneras' lover ( i know i mispelled her name)
