I think my girlfriend and I used that for an injoke for about a year afterwards. Ridiculously good show.

I also highly recommend the Jeremy Piven show “Cupid” if you can find it. Just 13 episodes, but all pretty awesome.

runs off to find his arrested development dvds…

I just spent the past couple of weeks discovering and watching this entire series. What an awesome show! Sad that it’s over. =(

the funny thing is that a friend of mines lend me the season one dvd back in 2005 and I had it ever since and just watched it a couple of weeks ago.

Still looking very promising!

The “Arrested Development” feature has moved closer to reality, with Mitch Hurwitz and Ron Howard reportedly closing deals for the long-gestating project from Imagine and Fox Searchlight.

The possible migration of the critically acclaimed but short-lived Fox series to the big screen has been a hot topic among fans for the past year. Speculation has been fueled by cast members of the show, including Jason Bateman, Will Arnett and Jeffrey Tambor, who have been frequently quoted in interviews that a feature adaptation is in the works.

Hurwitz, who created and exec produced the Emmy-winning series, is on board to write the film as well as direct with help from Howard. The series, from Imagine TV and 20th TV, was a pet project of Howard, who had a lot to do with its distinct visual style. In the final episode, Howard, playing himself, heard the Bluth TV family’s pitch of their story and liked it for a movie.

I have a boner right now.

Even if the characters are all grown or some shit, and David Cross grew hair and refused to shave it off for his role as Tobias, I’d still go watch this movie.

For once G4 actually does something right. Having an Arrested Development marathon on Thanksgiving was awesome.

*Michael walks into Lucille’s apartment and talks about how bad his day is.
*Lucille hugs him.
Michael: What are you doing? Why are you squeezing me with your body?

Lucille: I remember it like it was yesterday…
Michael: It was this morning…
