    There's a guy that I work with that looks like Tobias...I haven't mentioned it as I just started, but over time, yeah, I'll start calling him that instead...

    I've never seen a complete season, just episodes here and there...very funny show...

    They should have had more time to end the series, that is really the only disappointing thing about it. Season 3 was a bit abrupt. I didn't like how they just threw everything back on a boat and called it a day.

    That's one of the great things about the show. You can watch it a few times and still find jokes you didn't pick up the first time. Just a ton of nuanced jokes.

    Yeah this is what I believe. They just rushed the whole thing in season 3 and didn't end it a proper way.

    Even with broadcasting they rushed it. I think it was the 4 last episodes all aired in one Friday night.

    Jason Bateman was on the Daily Show the other day....

    he said the script for the AD movie is half-way complete...

    and that he thinks they may begin filming next year.

    I didn't like it when I first saw it because I just saw a random episode, so I didn't understand some of the inside jokes that referred back to previous episodes.

    But I gave it another chance a few weeks later and I watched all 3 seasons in 2 days on the computer. I think with a show like this you definitely should watch from the beginning because the jokes all build off each other.

    Also I like that it doesn't have a laugh track, because it makes the numerous throwaway jokes so much more subtle.

    This is by far the most amazing show I have ever seen. It's not only funny, but it's clever beyond you can imagine. The writers set up a joke, at times 4-5 episodes before delivery. AD is a prime example of how network execs can killl a show.

    Can't wait for the movie. Let the GREAT experiment begin!!! :grin:

    I was really high when I said that.

    Arrested Development is a fantastic show.
