Arrested development

[Alex28]

The real easy way of watching it on Netflix - use Chrome or Firefox, get the Media Hint extension, get yourself a Netflix account using a valid credit card but use an american postcode. You are on your way watching it validly - heck Netflix even give you a free one month trial!

First few episodes were a little slow but then it gets great. The first GOB episode is the best I reckon - the Forget-Me-Now cycle was fantastic. Tobias being a Theralist is pretty great too.

Anustart :lol:

His choice of words in the "to catch a predator" scene was priceless.

 

[GAZF]

Also GOB is pure awesomeness hahaha.

Saw his ep last night. His selfishness/stupidity knows no bounds :lol:.

I've just finished watching the 11th episode, and I'm not going to lie to all of you, I have been severely disappointed with the lack of chicken dancing

 

[canberra_raiders2k2]

Ill be watching episode 11 tonight. I'm trying not to rush through them but its hard.

Also Tobais is the shit in his episode of "to catch a predator".

The Anne jokes are pretty awesome, that never gets old.

One of my favourite shows of all-time. Not surprisingly, it hasn't had an equal since (Community goes the closest, followed narrowly by Modern Family).

That it would be cancelled while shows like Two & A Half Men & The Big Bang Theory could flourish is why I will never share the Dalai Lama & Nelson Mandela's moronic optimism toward Humanity.

Come on!!!!!!

The 11th episode was funny, but unexpected. Wow

There's been some great bits in this series, dont think it quite hits the heights of the original run but it's unbelievably well written.

Tv was different when it got cancelled it rated better than parks and rec for example which nbc lets limp along

however its cancellation will be used for good. There is no way in hell a network (even hbo) would allow a sitcom to basically be one 8 hour act rather than 15 self contained stories. Netflix gave Mitch Hurwitz the freedom to basically do what he wanted. Some of it doesn't work (the show is legit confusing until ep 4) but what works is really good.

This is probably the future of tv.

I thought he was ok in it, the actual "to catch a predator" scene was funny. His second ep was better. Looks like the "Tobias is black" theory got some more credibility after hearing his middle name in the elevator scene.

 

[Pete Cash]

Its Barack Obamas fathers middle name. Also Lindsay says that Love reminds her of Tobias.

 

[Pete Cash]

Another little joke is that George Michael hates his name because of its connections with the singer George Michael due to the notoriety of the name (public toilet thing)

so he comes up with the name George maharis is/was (not sure if he's alive) an actor who also got charged with lewd behaviour in a public toilet.

Disagree.

The Newsroom.

Archer.

Both just as good, in some ways (IMHO).

 

[Pete Cash]

If he means shows altogether he's obviously sucking down the stupid pills because mad men and breaking bad are two of the most acclaimed shows ever.

 

[Amadaca]

In fairness, the two shows you mentioned each, I haven't watched.

But thinking about comedies, I haven't seen a show as good as AD since it departed. Closest to come along so far has been Community.

All just my opinion, of course.

 

[canberra_raiders2k2]

Haha. I only just watched episode 11.

By far the best episode. IMO.

Hate knowing it ends in 4 more episodes.

 

[GAZF]

I have to give props to Maria Bamford as De Brie, she is literally nuts.

 

[Godz Illa]

I love Maria Bamford so much

 

[Amadaca]

I know its a long shot, but has the Cornballer made an appearance?

 

[Frederick]

Yes it has

 

[Amadaca]

Yes it has

Are you kidding?

f**k I loved that silent little ambush predator :lol:
