Arrested Development
I think that this is the funniest show on T.V. In fact, there's never been an episode where I haven't laughed hysterically. Yet...it's being fuking cancelled!! (and has always struggled w/ ratings).
So, I figure lotsa people on this board prolly don't watch it. For this reason, I'd be interested in hearing why you don't find it enjoyable. It's hilarious. |

Re: Arrested Development
Perhaps you missed the first 50 threads on AD here. The general opinion in OOT is that it's a damn good show.

Re: Arrested Development
The first three seasons of Family Guy were unbelievable, yet it was cancelled (although later brought back). This happens with good shows once in a while, especially comedies. For whatever reason sometimes even critically acclaimed shows can't hold an audience. Fox in particular struggles with this. I think they pull the plug a little too soon on some shows (and then there are shows that should never have even made pilot stage on Fox).

Re: Arrested Development
It looked good when it first came out - I watched a couple episodes - just nothing special IMO. It was like it the characters were trying too hard to be outrageous.

[/ QUOTE ] That's like the greatest part of the show. The crazy characters like Joeb, Buster, the father, and Tabias surround the "normal" Michael. This contrast causes their interactions to provide a lot of the entertainment. |

Re: Arrested Development
I understand them saying "ok, bottom line, we think the show rules, but it doesn't make money, it's gotta go".
Sucks, but like, that's the breaks. What I don't understand is them saying "ok, we'll kill that, but let's green light this Pamela Anderson sitcom". Either I don't understand that because "Stacked" will actually get better ratings and I want to kill people or I don't understand it because it clearly won't and I want to kill people at Fox. |
