    Well, this past Christmas my older brother gave me the first 3 seasons of "Arrested Developement". I've never heard about or have seen this show on TV. I've been procrastinating on opening the package (its still in the shrink wrap) and was wondering if its worth watching.

    I will eventually watch it but just havnt been motivated to do so since Christmas. Am I missing out on something? Help me get over my procrastination or let me know if its warranted.

    Depends. Name some comedies you like. People who liked the show LOVED the show, but it never caught on with a mainstream audience so it only lasted 3 seasons (and only made it that long because of its hardcore following).

    It is beyond brilliant. Immediately leave this forum and watch all three seasons right now. You won't regret it.

    If you like your sitcoms to have laugh tracks so you know which parts are supposed to be funny, you won't like Arrested Development.

    For some people, the style of humor just doesn't stick.

    Personally, I think Arrested Development is the funniest show that's ever been on television. It really is that good.

    Well, my brother does know my sense of humor. The fact that there is no "Canned Laughing" is definately encouraging. I think I will start watching it at work tomorrow (I Love my job ).

    It's very good, and very funny My only complaint is that it's about as smug and up it's own ass as a show can get, which is why David Cross was a perfect casting decision.

    The film has been pretty much greenlit forever. I'll be in a much better mood when they actually start shooting the damn thing.

    Isn't Michael Cera's loser ass holding it up so he can make some more lame indie rock films? I thought they'd all signed on but him?

    That would never hold up in a court of law. I'll post something in the Bob Loblaw Law Blog to further clarify.

    I didn't watch it when it was on TV, but watched all the episodes on Hulu. Defintely one of the funniest shows ever made.

    I have all 3 seasons sitting here as well as I borrowed them from a mate.

    I've been told it's great but I am also procrastinating on it. Is it similar in vain to something like Curb Your Enthusiasm? That's the impression I get. (I love Curb)
