And if so, have you ever noticed how much Buster looks like Ed Witten?
hahahaha. god that show was amazing.And if so, have you ever noticed how much Buster looks like Ed Witten?
:rofl:Let me take off my actor pants, and pull on my analrapist stocking...
One of the reasons it had to be cancelled is that it could not "build" an audience. You need to get the DVD of the 1st season, and start with the long version of the pilot (they aired the shorter version of the pilot). Too many jokes require that you have seen the previous episodes. Some of the joke references in the 2nd and 3rd seasons call back to the first season. And there are lots of running jokes that are not funny if you don't watch the episodes in proper sequence.I haven't seen this show yet, but I've been meaning to. I never seem to know when it is on. I hope to catch it sometime, everyone I talk to seems to love it![]()
Ok, thanks! I'll for sure get the first season and watch it, and go from there. I'll have to watch it a few times, though, to get most of the jokes, lol.One of the reasons it had to be cancelled is that it could not "build" an audience.

So no one could just start watching AD and still "get it." Only 4 million viewers in the US would watch regularly, and that is a meager market share.
Yup. But while this made the show less popular it also made it better. Just like scrubs. Most people can't fully appreciate it if they haven't been following it since day one. Luckily the owner put the episodes on hulu so everyone can see them. (It's not illegal, it's an ad supported tv website). I'd link directly to the Arrested Development page but I don't know if linking is forbidden or not. Google hulu though if you want to see it.One of the reasons it had to be cancelled is that it could not "build" an audience.
