Whats this Arrested Development?

I thought it was a band that sung a song about a wise beggar?

In the immortal words of Ron Howard (bez you might know him as Richie Cunningham)

"And now the story of a wealthy family who lost everything, and the one son who had no choice but to keep them all together... It's Arrested Development."


why havent I heard of it?

because as per usual with any decent show the tv networks treated it like a diseased leper and showed it at crappy hours

The Literal Doctor

Dr. Fishman: It .... it looks like he's dead.
Gob: Oh little guy! The tears aren't coming! The tears just aren't coming.
Michael: Just to be clear, looks like he's dead, or he IS dead?
Dr. Fishman: It just looks like he's dead. He's got like, blue paint on him or something. But he's going to be fine.

Tobias: You know, first of all, we are doing this for her, okay, because neither one of us wants to get divorced. And second-of-ly, I know you're the big marriage expert. Oh, I'm sorry. I forgot. Your wife is dead!

Narrator: Tobias listens to a day's worth of his own words, to see what Michael was referring to...
Tobias F*nke: [on tape] ... even if it means me taking a chubby, I will suck it up.
Tobias F*nke: Nothing wrong with that.
Tobias F*nke: [on tape] Oh, I've been in the film business for a while, but I just can't seem to get one in the can.
Tobias F*nke: It's out of context.
Tobias F*nke: [on tape] I wouldn't mind kissing that man between the cheeks.
Narrator: ...and he realized there is something distinct about the way he speaks.
Tobias F*nke: Tobias, you blowhard!
 
I finally watched season 3. Still can't get the image of Tobias and the hair plugs in various guises out of my head... :eek: Charlize Theron is hot even if she is an 'MR F'. ;)

Still brilliant though!
 
Bump. Exciting news!

Arrested Development gets launch date

Arrested Development, starring Portia de Rossi and Jason Bateman, will be reborn on Netflix on May 26.
The subscription service announced the premiere date on Thursday, saying that all 15 episodes of the comedy series will be posted at the same time. The Mitchell Hurwitz sitcom was cancelled by Fox in 2006 after three seasons.
 
Great series. An American friend recommended it and I watched one episode with some reluctance as I detest almost all American TV. Needless to say I pissed myself laughing and ended up downloading every episode (ISOHUNT). Now I'm waiting for them to make the movie or whatever it is they're up to.
 
Did anyone else watch all of the new series? I made it to about episode 5 or so and gave up. It wasn't terrible but the old formula was gone and I found it hard to get through.

Yeah I finally made through it in 2 batches. Definitely very different from the original series but understandable given their filming constraints. There were some great gags but they were few and far between and they were a few episodes where I barely chuckled.
 
I dropped it into the too hard basket after about 3 episodes. It's not the same show.
