Arrested Development: The Funniest Show on Television

I dont quite remember how our viewing of Arrested Development began some 2 weeks ago, but Hunter, Thew, and myself have since watched every episode from the first season. It used to share Desperate Housewives timeslot, but now airs at 7:30 cst on Sunday evenings. But might I suggest that everyone rent the DVD's and enjoy the episodes in their entirety, and back to back. The writing is so fast, I can see where it might be seriously undermined by commercial interruptions, phone conversations, bathroom trips, etc.



Jason Bateman plays Michael Bluth, whose father has built low-quality manufactured homes in Iraq, and has since been arrested for fraud, treason, etc. Now Michael must run the family and the family business, both of which are as dysfunctional as they come.

All I ask is that you go rent part of the 1st season. It doesnt really matter which part you pick up, the writers do an incredible job of rehashing previous episodes and episodic character re-development. But chronology will help as you try to catch every joke. You can find out everything you wanna know about the show by clicking the link above.
