Arrested Development Appreciation!

Maybe...the best show ever. The entire cast is perfect.

Everyone should try giving the new show Modern Family a try, and not just because my old drummers twins play the homosexual characters' baby. It has some of the same intelligent sensibilities of uncomfort and awkwardness that made AD so amazing.

If you liked Arrested Development you'll probably love It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

Both are good, but neither seem to have that X-factor for me that AD had that made me crack up nearly every scene.

Sign me up for being a huge fan of the show. Definitely one of the best sitcoms ever.

As a huge Married With Children fan it is a disappointment that Ed ONeil is basicly playing Al Bundy all over again. Although he's tried other things and its never worked out.
 
They are now running Arrested Development on Independent Film Channel (IFC), Sunday nights(?).

I never recognized Opie's voice during the first run...what's funnier this time around is that my current employer and his family are incredibly reminiscent of the Bluth's without a Michael!
