I don't really have a substantial take on this show, which is why I chose to post this thread here.
I saw only half of the first episode until this weekend. Girlfriend and I broke up so I had some free time over the weekend, so I spent a lot of it sitting around and watching the first season of this DVD series...made it through the whole thing pretty easily. Not a whole lot of laugh out loud parts, more of a "Ahhh, I get what they're doing and that's smart and clever" kinda thing. I appreciated the fact that about 98% of the Mr Show cast was used in some form during the season.
Overall: Excellent for network television, but just "good" in general. Overrated? Yes, a bit, but still very watchable. For a sitcom on major network television it's probably the best thing going right now.

And that's not saying much considering it was cancelled.MgoBlue-LightSpecial wrote: For a sitcom on major network television it's probably the best thing going right now.

it appears the show isn't cancelled afterall.
Which is GREAT, as it's easily one of the top 3 comedies on TV these days.

I watch "Boston Legal", SuperFreak likes "Amazing Race", "ER", and "Grey's Anatomy".
Other than those, we don't pay much attention to network TV.
I will on occasion, if there's a good ballgame on. :P

The show was revived last year at this time. It was chainstoking when Charlize Theron was on and is now DOA.website wrote:Here's a quick history: on February 9, 2005, Fox reduced the episode order for Arrested Development from 22 to 18
