redskins0756 Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 I don't know if anyone here watched the show or has picked it up on DVD, but this is probably my favorite show of all-time. If you haven't seen it before it's tremendous and I recommend buying all 3 seasons on DVD or watching the episodes on Hulu. Anyone else here watch? "It's not a trick. It's an illusion.

RonArtest15 Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 I thought it was the best show on television while it was on. Could not believe it got canceled. Funniest show I have EVER seen....I seriously think it was too smart for FOX. It might have been a bit before it's time. With the success of 30 Rock and The Office (US Version), I think had AD come out within the past 2 years or so (on NBC), it would still be on the air. You won't find funnier characters than Buster and G.O.B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People better tune in to keep it form going the same way as AD! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You won't find funnier characters than Buster and G.O.B. Don't forget Tobias and his misunderstood statements... "Even if it means me taking a chubby, I will suck it up. (listening to himself on tape recorder). Nothing wrong with that." "I'm afraid I've prematurely shot my wad. On what was supposed to be a dry run if you will. So I'm afraid I have something of a mess on my hands." "You need to decide whether you want a man or a boy. I know how I'd answer." "Lindsay are you forgetting I was a professional twice over? An analyst and a therapist. The worlds first analrapist." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robotfire Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 For some reason, when George Sr left the hospital at the end of season one and the family was reminiscing, GOB's tearful moment was incredible. From memory it went something like this: GOB: I'm gonna miss that old bear. Old big bear. He liked the honey! Buster: I didn't even realize we were calling him "big bear". GOB in tearful breakout: We never got the chance! EDIT: Also, GOB's campaign he ran for George Michael was amazing. "Go home, ya terrorist!" "Young and old, it doesn't matter ... in the dark." (so that's why you told me to turn off that lamp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjah Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Great, great show. Probably my favorite ever. Here's a though-provoking clip of David Cross with a theory about why Arrested Development got cancelled. Fair warning: language is NSFW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
