La Lindsay Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 Alright, so I watched any episode I could catch last year of Arrested Development and I thought this show was funny as shit. No laugh track. Excellent comedic timing by all of the actors. Amazing writing. Very sharp. Quirky characters. So I bought the DVD of the first season. Best investment I've ever made. I highly recommend watching this show. My mission in life is to get everyone I possibly can to watch this show. Michael : Mom wanted me to tell you she doesn't care whether you live or die, but if you're not dead, she would like to see you at the courthouse tomorrow in a blue sweater. Buster : Dammit! I hate the blue sweater! Michael : She said it would look nice with the gray pants. Buster : Dammit! She's right! --------------------------------------------- Lucille : I don't want to leave Buster alone with all the J-U-I-C-E. Buster : I can spell, Mother; you spelled juice. Lucille : What a genius. Let's see you find it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyLeakyBucket Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 Never seen this but being in England until september I have an excuse. However, noticed tFOX are going to show simpsons, arrested development, king of the hill and malcolm in the middle all in a row so no work that day.

MyLeakyBucket Posted December 8, 2004 Share Posted December 8, 2004 Haven't watched an episode of this in a few weeks. Damn sunday showing time is difficult for me. Also, for me, really like this but if I only have time to watch one show on sunday evening, Malcolm in the Middle takes precendence. Good show though.

The NZA Posted December 11, 2004 Share Posted December 11, 2004 (edited) "He's your brother, too! Everyone's laughing, and riding, and cornholing...except for Buster." oh shit, i had to stop at that line, almost spit up m'drink.... s'more highlights: "we'll have enough money for you to neuter every cat and dog...no more cats & dogs; theyre a thing of the past."

MyLeakyBucket Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 George-Michael is probably my fave character. The Christian book-burning episode the other week had me rolling about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Lindsay Posted October 17, 2005 Author Share Posted October 17, 2005 OK, seriously, you guys need to buy seasons 1 and 2. Or at least bit torrent(?) them because if this show gets cancelled and another season of joey gets greenlit, i'm going to have to kill myself. do you want my death on your conscience? of course not. or at least most of you don't...now go buy or download the show already.

Lycaon Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 (edited) Seen some of this series (not much, unfortunately). Very funny. A friend of mine has the first season and we talk about doing an Arrested Developement marathon every so often. ...crap, this is on Fox? Fox, as in the "Channel-that-kills-good-shows"?

Lycaon Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 (edited) Well crap. Fox really is the killer of good televsion. Of course, the ratings really didn't help. Still, one does wish they had more patience over there. Edited November 11, 2005 by Lycaon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 SONOFABITCH Fox wouldnt know a good show if it teabagged them, between this and Firefly. I admit, high brow comedy might not be ideal after a baseball game, but fuck....i hope FX or someone picks this up. LL's not gonna be happy.

MyLeakyBucket Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 Damn, if it wasn't for DVD sales probably all we'd get would be Oprah all day long. Arrested Development is an amazing show and cerianly one of the best U.S. comedies I've ever seen. Fox could use a little balls right now to see past those profit functions.

Lycaon Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 Friend of mine in Austin has the first season. I'm gonna encourage him to have that Arrested Developement Marathon he's been talking about. Maybe we'll call it the Arrested Developement Wake (I wonder if there'll be boozahol...).

crimsonfire Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 That show is hilarious beyond words. Nuff said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Lindsay Posted February 11, 2006 Author Share Posted February 11, 2006 well, it's over. officially? that's up to showtime. there was a lot more closure in the last episodes than i had expected but they still left it open for showtime to pick it up. i'm still pissed at fox for burning the last four episodes against the opening ceremonies of the winter olympics. fox, you've made a huge mistake. and hopefully showtime won't make a huge mistake by passing up this series. in the meantime, you will be missed.

Lycaon Posted February 13, 2006 Share Posted February 13, 2006 As I've said before, Fox kills good tv (kinda like kryptonite and Superman). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arnah Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 thats right. and then there's season 3 which is 13 episodes (i think) but it's not out on dvd yet. probably in october this year. *sigh* Which means we'll get it around March 07. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
