OK I know a few of us watch this show. Anyone catch the new epi last night w/ Julia Louis-Dreyfus ?
Man this show just gets better and better. This sunday\'s epi has her again.
Looks like a real good one.
i\'m mad i missed it! love that show; it\'s got excellent writing. reminds me of seinfeld, actually, in the way that everything sorta ties together at the end.
Funniest dysfunctional family on TV (non animated)
I loved the clips from the next episode at the end where Tibias is trying to rob Juila -Louis-Dreyfus. Classic
I\'m a huge fan of this show and Wednesday\'s episode was among the season\'s best. I can\'t wait for Sunday\'s conclusion, but I hope FOX moves it to Wednesday 9:30 permanently. Sunday 9:30 is a death-trap going up against The Sopranos. Arrested Development has yet to crack the top 70 in the ratings in that slot. But American Idol can finally contribute something worthwhile to society by paving the way for AD in the Wednesday slot. I\'m interested to see where this Wednesday\'s show ranked. I\'m hoping for at least top 40 and for AD to be a Wednesday fixture. Unfortuately, I think the show will rot if left on Sunday\'s and that\'s simply not fair because it\'s a quality show. It deserves a chance. The ratings need to match the critical acclaim.
Pitch
leith - you are a mind reader.. i was gonna start this exact thread the day you did... :thumbsup:
for those who have not seen the show, you are
really missing out. probably the best show on network tv right now.. check out the website
here.
the show really has not had a bad episode yet! it\'s absolutely hilarious, very well done, and the cast is perfect.
there\'s no better time than now to start watching - tomorrow (sunday), FX is airing the first SIX episodes beginning at 2:00 EST, followed by an all new episode on FOX at 9:30.. yes, it\'s sopranos time, but tape/tivo it. trust me.
WOW Thanx for the tip about FX Dave. I had not heard. So mini marathon niiiiiiiice !
Flipping channels and saw that AD just won a TV Land award for "Future Classic"
Neat little John Ritter video tribute too
And Lynda Carter is still Wonder Woman, man she looked good !
results of the wednesday show:
http://shorterlink.com/?G19VQYFOX moved into the lead at 9 p.m. with a 10.5/17 average. The conclusion of "American Idol" jumped up to 14.9/23 and was followed by "Arrested Development," which dipped to 6.1/10 (still way above its season average).
It turns out last Wednesday\'s episode finished 34th in the ratings (with the American Idol lead-in) and the usual Sunday episode was 65th. The show typically finishes in the 75-85 area. I\'m hoping it can level off in 60\'s and gradually improve so cancellation won\'t be an issue. I\'m looking for a second season. Another new episode this Sunday at 9:30. I thought last week\'s double-bill with Julia-Louis Dreyfus was some funny
****.
Pitch
interestingly, episode 16 debuted on Sunday, while episodes 17 & 18 have already aired.AD continues to be the most brilliant \'sit-com\' on tv.. i felt that for AD\'s standards, this was a mediocre episode, yet it still had tons of moments that had me lmao...
Kitty: "up here michael, up here."
George Michael: "talk you off what, pop-pop?" :lol:
An Yang being used as Luceille\'s purse! rotfl "he goes with everything."
Michael: "that\'s the seventh nipple i\'ve seen today!"
can\'t stress it enough -
watch this show.

see, if you had HBO, then you\'d prolly be watching The Sopranos on Sundays at 9:30, but since you don\'t, you really should tune into AD on FOX!
I don\'t really watch much TV to be honest. (With the exception of occasionally the History Channel or Animal Planet.) I don\'t want to start watching AD and then find myself in front of the tube every Sunday night. I hear it\'s great though.
Speaking of Animal Planet, I think I would probably marry the crocodile hunter. That guy is the greatest. I know, I know, he has a wife. That
****. :slap:
I loved how the lawyer played by Henry Winkler pulled a"Fonz" in the mirror. Classic. Bits like that just keep me comin\' back.
An average episode this week, but still with plenty of laughs. Finished 69th in the ratings. Needs to be moved to 8:30 and follow the Simpsons.
