Hey everybody, I was just wondering if any other Nintendo Lifers liked what I consider to be one the greatest sitcoms ever made, Arrested Development. The new season is being released tomorrow (it's a Netflix exclusive) and my friends and I are incredibly excited. We're getting together tomorrow afternoon to watch all ten episodes in one shot. Our favourite character is Tobias Funke (David Cross), and we're hoping he is prominent throughout each episode.

Anyways, what are your favourite characters? And what do you think will happen this season?

(My favorite character is Michael. He's just as crazy as everyone else in his family, but his deadpan reactions to the madness around him are just perfect.)

Hell, I love both the band and the TV show.

Each episode focuses on one member of the Bluth Family and what they have done in the five years since the family fell apart. This is my ideal episode line-up:
6 Episodes Tobias
2 Episodes Franklin
1 Episode Buster
1 Episode Ann

I am watching all 15 back to back starting a 3AM with my brothers. We have been waiting for this for years. Seeing Gob again is going to be the best part.

Probably my favourite sitcom.

I really want to watch it, but Netflix isn't even available in Australia. Why must the world be so cruel?

Oh man, that's awful! Well, I suppose they will be released online eventually (on one site or another) for free, and perhaps Netflix will release a DVD set if they are really popular, although that is unlikely.

I find it so odd that Netflix has become so large and isn't global. My sister is living in Japan and can't get it there either.
Watched a couple episodes. It's decent.

By the end of season 1 that decent will turn into FANTASTIC!

Buster must be more of a Milford man than ever, because I'm eight episodes into season 4 and I've barely seen him.

the pacing of this series is very manic. i've watched them all (finished last nite) and feel exhausted, lol. there are moments of true brilliance, moments of wtf? and moments that just leave you a wee bit confused. if you blink you miss a lot of 'in' jokes.

plot lines do begin to come together about episode 7. the real humour starts about episode 5. the ending? i am still deciding how i feel about that.

I've watched all Season 4 now. I have to say it was awesome. Kinda different from before, but that's great; I wouldn't mind if Season 5 takes the same route, but of course, with more character interaction.

I'm starting to see it again, and I like it even more...
That part "The strong will become the weak, the weak will become the strong" or whatever, really summarizes all Bluths ultimate fate.
