So I started dating a girl about 2 months ago. Things are going pretty well, but there was this big thing looming in the horizon...whether or not she'd like Arrested Development.

I had lent it to Tu so I couldn't show it to her and to be honest I was a little nervous anyway. I mean, if she didn't like what I feel is an absolutely BRILLIANT show, what was I suppoesd to do?

Well, we watched the extended pilot last night, and I actually had to pause it several times so she could stop laughing and catch the next joke. WHEW!

I was wondering if you guys ever had similar barameters with your lady friends?

Emily HATES The Big Lebowski, so I HATE HER.

Mandy hates my music, tattoos, wrestling, horror/gorey movies, and my beard. hahahaha

but she does like most of the movies I like, The Big Lebowski included.

Emily also hates my lack of compassion for the less fortunate. She doesn't care very much for poop humor either. She also do not like it when I quote obscure movie quotes to her. She also thinks I'm a hick.

I was actually, you know, thinking about measuring sticks, but if this is cathartic for you guys, go ahead and let it all out. Chris is here for you.

jenna likes the flyers almost as much as i do and thats all that i care about

Check out these videos:

My favorite gag from the show: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid ... 0739929435

David Cross sounding off about the show being cancelled (not safe for work): http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid ... 0912971901

"These aren't even birds." HAHAHAHAHA The best part of that episode is the flashback where George Bluth Sr. is telling Sally Sitwell's dad how Michael is gonna lay the pipe to her when they are kids.

I laughed at this when you first typed it and now that its resurfaced I laughed again hahaha how are you a hick.

Oh yeah I definitely wanna watch Arrested Development too. Bateman is hillarious, remember that episode of The Hogan Family when his house burned down, classic stuff right there haha

Because I make racist remarks.

The show is amazing. The entire cast is great. I constantly hear arguments from people about who their favorite character is.

If you want to get into it, though, you have to start from the beginning and watch them in order. Otherwise nothing makes sense..

the girl I'm currently boinking and I have absolutely nothing in common whatsoever.

Haha. Boinking.

At least you have a mutual interest in boinking each other. That's something, right?

**Since it's pretty safe to say that the show isn't going to be picked up by another network at this point, here's some solace for those still suffering the loss of TV's late, great "Arrested Development": According to two different interviews with two different cast members, show creator Mitch Hurwitz has been in talks with producer Ron Howard to develop a movie based on the show. TV Guide spoke with Alia Shawkat ("Maeby" on the show), who told them Hurwitz "actually recently told us that there is a good possibility for a movie" and, in an interview with IGN FilmForce, Will Arnett (AKA "Gob") had this to say: "Yeah, there has been talk of that. I don't know exactly where they're at with that. I've talked about it with Mitch [Hurwitz] and Jason [Bateman] and a little bit with a bunch of people involved with the show and different producers". Personally, I think "Arrested Development" would have no problems translating to the big screen.**

Repeats of this show have been coming on G4 lately, and I managed to catch a few episodes here and there. I never really knew what was happening but I found myself laughing at it anyway. So I picked up the first season earlier this week and I'm loving it. Dem and I watch it together, and she likes it as much as I do. We've only watched 3 episodes so far on the DVD (we caught a few on G4 together) but I get the feeling we might start watching this on a nightly basis.

Dude it's awesome. Probably the only way to watch it is on DVD since every episode is related to previous events, but that show is GENIUS. I still have to see the 3rd season, but I have the first two if you need to borrow it.

It's awesome. I need to start season 3. It's been sitting on my desk for 2 months now.

The DVDs are very easy to find. Season 3 came out almost 2 months ago. I was able to watch it. The best way to watch TV is seriously watching DVDs.

Who's everyone's favorite character on the show? They are all really good! I was gonna say Gob, but I think I like Maeby, George Michael's cousin. Her name just makes her character so great!

- Thark

Elaine: [embarassed] Hi.

I think it's a tie between Gob and Tobias. I think just about every character is great. What about STEVE HOLT!?

_________________

Yeah man, GOB is definitely my favorite. But Tobias's best moment would have to be when he dressed up like a woman. I think I was dying during that episode or episodes.
