Arrested Development (1 Viewer)

Why is the thread titled 'arrested development' the 23rd search result for 'arrested development' after 22 results that contain neither 'arrested' nor 'development' in the title or subtitle?

:goodposting:

The search engine here has always bugged me. It's almost easier to flip through the main board pages until you find the thread you are looking for.

 
You guys are doing it wrong. Use advanced search and select the "Search titles only" option and it's the first one that comes up.

Pretty much always have to use advanced search to get good results.

 
Now I wish I'd gone through the series a third time before tomorrow. Just the few eps I saw on the appropriately titled Final Countdown Marathon (after GOB's theme music). So many things I doubt I got on the acing viewing.

GOB stumbles trying to name his spectacular protest trick on the courthouse steps a protestacular and Tobias comes back with hair "magic" markered on his dome (to be GOB's double) saying he's ready to star in the prostatetickler. It's the kind of show that the only way you're wrong for heaping tons of praise on it is that you probably didn't heap enough.

 
Code: 
Episode guide and list in order.Flight of the Phoenix Michael (2) George Sr. (1) George Sr. (2) Lindsay (1) Lindsay (2) Tobias Gob (1) Maeby Lucille Buster George Michael (1) George Michael (2) Gob (2) Season 4, Episode 15
 
I have no idea how I want to watch these episodes. I feel like I might burn through all of them tomorrow. Not sure if I can stretch it out though

Once they're live, I'm just going to click the first episode listed and go from there.

 
Three eps in. Still very funny, but it is hard adjusting to whole episodes with virtually no Gob or Tobias.

Favorite gag so far was Barry's suit to impress the harbor master.

 
Episode 1 starting off with a bang with a nice nod to May 4th, the best day of the year for the last 41 years. And just like the Sweeney fam when they moved to that stinking hellhole, I wish we could've done an about face just as quickly...

 
I'm through 3 episodes. I'm not going to spoil anything but thus far I feel like it's been so so.

Most of the laughs have been from call back jokes. Maybe I've just become nostalgic towards the show. I don't know.

Taking a break and will watch some tomorrow.

I don't know what you saw, but I got an ostrich and no boner.

 
I saw Portia about 13 years ago in an upscale bar in Hollywood while I was dating one of the "cool kids of Hollywood" and was briefly immersed in the swanky culture of LA. She was the hottest woman in the place. I had to double and triple check the credits to see why they had a different actress (with the same voice) playing Lindsay. She's unrecognizable.

Yeah, she looks rough. As does Maeybe.

Would still smash Maeybe. Not even sure Lindsey is female, or human. Kind of ruining it for me.
 
I'm through 10 episodes. 5 more to go, but so far it's fair. Not bad but not as good as the first 3 seasons. Lots of regurgitation of old jokes, not as much new as I was hoping for.

 
Through 3 so far and a little under whelmed. I think the best part of the show was when they were all together and these single character centric episodes aren't doing it for me.

This. I get the point of what they're doing, but the isolation concept just does not work like the other episodes in terms of funny.

Unfortunately it was next to impossible to get everyone together. Bateman, Cera, and Arnett are pretty busy these days. Tony hale is on veep. Tambor seems to be in something random all the time. Obviously it's not ideal but from what I've read this a lead up to a movie that one would assume would have everyone's full devotion.
 
I'm coming away from it as you have to take them as a whole. I'm sure someone, with no time on their hands, will edit these at some point but at the end of the day, take them as a whole.

Netflix had to try something different to see if it sticks. I think Netflix is winning this round.

 
I am starting from the beginning, almost done with Season 1. Like it so far

Love Carl Weathers, he is a crackup and Henry Winkler is great as the attorney.

And my favorite line is when Jessie calls George Micheal "Opie" and the narrator says, "Jessie had gone too far, and she had best watch her mouth." :lol:

And does Marta return? I hope not because she can't act and I don't find her attractive at all

Which Marta? Marta 1 is hot. I'll agree with you about Marta 2 though.She does not return, up until season 4 at least.

 
I'm starting to think that they will be better after watching it a 2nd time after you're familiar with the new running jokes. At least I hope.

So far, the best cameo has been Max Winkler as a young Barry. He kills it and I hope we see much more of him. I also enjoyede seeing the guys from "Wokaholics".
 
I'd imagine that as the timelines catch up to each other, the ensemble cast will be together for good chunks of the final episodes. It may happen sooner, I'm only on 4 (Tobias).

Was there any doubt that Tobias was the guy behind Lindsey on the plane (of course I had doubts that it was actually Lindsey since deRossi is unrecognizable now due to botox)? You could see the round lenses on the edge of frame the first time. So far in this ep it doesn't seem like Tobias was the guru/shaman, but I'm still betting he was.

That's the second Marta. She's a Two-Face. Sometimes she looks good, sometimes not. The first Marta was definitvely hotter.

 
It definitely picks up on the second half of the episodes.

Will need to re-watch it all tomorrow, generally the case with new AD anyways.
