Title: Arrested Development
Post by: Tiger Six on October 29, 2008, 03:29:03 PM
I picked up the series (all three seasons) the other day and have been laughing my ass off ever since.

Highly underrated series. 

David Cross is a frickin' genius.  Jason Bateman is the epitome of the straight man.  Michael Cera is great.  The rest of the cast is prefect for the story. 

I hit It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia next.

I thought we were going to challenge each other to a game of horseshoes in this thread.

Yes.  Watch the old episodes of Mr. Show with Bob and David for further evidence of this statement.

  Jason Bateman is the epitome of the straight man. 

He's definitely grown on me in the past few years.  That whole Sandy Duncan sitcom fiasco is forgiven.

Michael Cera is great. 

He's hit or miss for me.  Seems to play the same character over and over in his films.

This, sir, is the Comstock lode of television comedy.  You will enjoy it immensely.

We can derail it and talk about Mr. Wendall if you'd like.

That would certainly Take me to another place,

it would Take me to another land,

it could Make me forget all that hurts me
 
and Let me understand your plan.

I have only seen a couple of episodes of Arrested Development. I started watching Sunny in Philly last year and love that show.

Hulu.com has a bunch of that past episodes you watch online, plus a lot more new and old TV shows.

Ok, I don't know if the buildup was too much for this show to handle, but I was a little disappointed with the first couple of episodes. 

However, by the time I got to "The Gang Finds a Dead Guy" and "Charlie Got Molested" came around, I was a devotee. 

Awesome.

Just wait until you watch the one where they go on welfare and also the one where Mac starts screwing Dennis and Dee's mom.
