And OMG... Is he really dead? Seriously?

Edit: ROFL!! NEVERMIND.

That was my thoughts - an homage to Snoopy, they just needed a yellow bird flying around.

They did it several times and I thought they were all hilarious.

The walk-of-shame was a great running gag. I'm not sure which was funnier -- that, or George Sr. as Saddam.

They had the dog in the background or people walking with their heads down?

I just recently watched season 1, straight through over three days......there is a reality to it, while still being absurdely unbelievable.


"Hey, brother." :) classic

Outstanding show. Anyone notice, when George Michael was walking home from the Banana Stand with his head down, there was a giant red doghouse behind him with a dog laying on top of it. Very odd.

It was a total scene right out of charlie brown. If you notice, there were kids running by him first and they were carrying a xmas tree, the music was playing from the charlie brown xmas special and the dog on the doghouse was a tribute to snoopy. Now why they kept it running through the whole show I have no idea, but I kept laughing everytime.

I would have called it "sit-com" in the title, but it's not. Not even in the way Seinfeld was.

Arrested Development is more satire, sort of like Police Files, but not really. It's unique in that respect.

I saw one episode (they went to mexico to look for his dad). It was alright. Didn't really laugh that much except for bounty hunter and I kind of giggled a little when the detective showed up, but that is it. Other than that, i did not care for it.

The one liners come so fast its hard to remeber them, thats why I love my tivo. When they were showing Ice's yellow pages ad I read at the bottom "see also: Party Planners" and was thinking WTF is that all about. Then it comes up later in the show. I had to rewind it to show my wife. His ad is next to Gene Parmesans ad. Which read...all disguises are original gene parmesan designs. (or something along those lines) It was in last weeks episode.
