Posted May 15, 2012 I'm glad they're sticking to the original format. It would have been a bit unsatisfying as the most laughs come when they're all together. I doubt each character episode would have only had the 1 character in it for the whole time :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 15, 2012 I remember reading that it won't be on the UK Netflix which is balls linkage I assume they're hoping to make money by licensing it out worldwide to standard network channels Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 15, 2012 you won't have to wait a week between each episode as they will all go live on Netflix at exactly the same time. I am booking that day off work! I'm glad they're sticking to the original format. It would have been a bit unsatisfying as the most laughs come when they're all together. To be honest I assumed the whole family would be there, but the narrative focus would be on one character per episode. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted May 15, 2012 I didn't actually think it would be one character and no one else... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 16, 2012 Started rewatching this, halfway into the second season now. It's still not that funny, not laugh-out-loud funny but "clever" funny. Since I'm not using it as background noise it's more entertaining than I remember, but not worth everyone blowing their load over. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 16, 2012 I didn't actually think it would be one character and no one else... I assumed it would be just one character. Alone. In a featureless room. For 23 minutes. I'm glad that won't be the case. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 22, 2012 Apparently the new season may end up as 13 episodes according to David Cross (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/08/22/david-cross-arrested-development_n_1822254.html?utm_hp_ref=tv). He also had this to say: "It's really audacious and amazing. I think a lot of people will miss the work that is involved, the story, the Venn diagrams that are being created, the domino effect that characters have with each other in their various episodes. I know what he's doing, and this has never been done on a TV show like this. This makes 'Lost' look like a Spaulding Grey monologue. You'll have to watch each episode more than once."

Posted September 25, 2012 (edited) I spasmed and flailed my arms when I read all episodes will go live on Netflix at once. Such a fantastic show, which reminds me...you should all watch Archer! It has such great similarities, right down to Judy Greer being crazy and Jessica Walter playing the Lucille Bluth as Malory Archer. Edit: Oh, I also realized that this is way more impressive than Joss Whedon getting Firefly's cast back together for Serenity. Larger cast, and episodes and possible movie Edited September 25, 2012 by Nolan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 12, 2012 I'd like it if they released it weekly because I know I'm just going to binge on it and watch it all within a week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 12, 2012 I plan to print out every single frame, shred them into a fine pulp and then absorb every episode intravenously in a non-linear fashion. I will essentially replace my blood with Arrested development...and most likely die in the process. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
