I just don't get it. I can't be the only one here who's obsessed with this show.

The actors and directors are awesome. I never thought such talent could be showcased in a sitcom.

My favorite part, though, is the writing. It has an on-going story, and yet you're not lost if you miss a week. The characters are ridiculous, but for some reason you can connect with each and every one of them.

I hope they don't wait 'til it's cancelled to release a season or two on DVD.

They put David Cross on network television. That's balls right there.

I saw it today, and I decided to make it a routine thing to watch it. I've seen it a few times, but today it was really good.

I don't get to see "Arrested Development" all the time, but I agree that it is a funny, good show. I especially love that Ron Howard does the narration.

I love this show.

The mom always has at least one totally un-pc, 'I'm rich and clueless' line per episode that makes me laugh out loud.

Also: I admit that I didn't figure this out, but once I read about it, it became even funnier --- the promos for next week's show are always fakes. And finding that out only made them funnier.

I loved all the jokes about the little Korean boy, especially how they thought "hello" was his name.

Never-nudes, not nearly-nudes. And I think she's just going through denial. [Wink]

D'oh! I knew that didn't sound right. I tried to find a site that had dialogue from the episodes, but came up empty.

There's some great material that I'd love to throw down, but am afraid that I'll get it totally wrong [Exhibit A above] if I do it from memory.
