may or may not be cancelled.

If you haven't watched it, you've been missing out. I hate TV, everything sucks now-a-days. But I can NOT get enough of this show, its INCREDIBLE. In only two seasons it has far surpassed the Simpsons or anything else.

Go here:

http://www.getarrested.com/

Do the pledge thing. It won't send you any bunk emails or anything. Supposedly FOX will announce may 15th if they're cancelling it or not.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

And everything else closed and I was making shoes.

then you're one of those people who has no sense of humor and doesn't laugh at life or smile ever.

well yeah, but I also own the first two seasons on DVD, and they aren't loosing money by me having the 3rd season episodes downloaded, if anything I can now show these episodes to friends to try to suck them in.

because really, arrested development fans are created by word-of-mouth only. The ad's just can't pull people in like they do for reality and drama programs.

what ads? they never had any of the actors do press junkets on talk shows either. fox did little to nothing promoting the show.

there were commercials, but the whole thing is (from what I've read) the audience of arrested development is a "smart" audience. In other words, people who don't watch stupid shit. So some flashy commercial isn't going to attract them, cause they're smarter than that. The only way the show gets promoted is by word-of-mouth, people bugging other people enough until they actually watch it, and then they get hooked.

I don't even know how many people I've told over and over again to watch it, and they're like "yeah, I'll try. I bet its good, but I have to watch Lost or Desperate Housewives or some shit, cause its on at the same time" and they're too fucking dense and stubborn to give AD a try, and so they never experience what I like to call "pure magic". Arrested Development is NOT LOST! Its not just some show. It's the only show of its kind, I mean if I can get drawn in to a show like this? Its gotta be good. I don't get deeply into shows like this, getting to know the characters and shit, thats stupid, its television - who cares? And yet, here I am, I could tell you the life story of every character, I'm dying to know what's going to happen next, and I cried when George Michael and Maebe kissed.

just for you Damon:
Feb. 10th at 8:00
8-10 yup thats 4 (the last four) episodes that will air on fox
sounds like showtime will be picking them up. its not totally confirmed, but they only want it if Mitch Hurwitz will stay involved. but its looking positive.

SHOWTIME FOR THE BLUTHS?: Hmm, maybe the fat lady should shut her mouth and take a seat. The New York Post hears brand-new buzz that Showtime has not only picked up Fox's canceled Arrested Development but has ordered a full 26 episodes.

thats from tvguide.com

i seen that show once, made me want to fight for animal rights. their little blurb at the end is bullshit "we love animals, and would never do anything mean to them" total bullshit. the stuff they do is so retarded.

slappin an elephants penis on your face is neither clean, good, or fun. And I would certainly consider that inappropriate and cruel treatment of the elephant.

bastards.

Arrested Development, now THAT is good clean fun.

Apples to Oranges... you can't compare arrested development and wildboys. they aren't even in the same category

wildboys is funny in its own right.. the best episode i've ever seen was when they want to go get tattoos that look like angelina jolies, and chris ended up with something totally different.. "He's just doodling away!"
