Sorry about posting a new topic about it, but the most recent one made was when it was still in production!
So who here loooves this show? I'm watching it right now - Canadians are lucky enough to have it running on CBC a few times through again. It's definitely something I've watched maybe 3 times through and still am not tired of it! 8)

I watch it every day on the CBC, never gets old no matter how many times you watch it. Sometimes I watch the same episode when they show it again at midnight.

It's my favourite current obsession! On a side note anyone who likes it would have to love Jason Bateman and Michael Cera in Juno.

It really does get better the more you watch it. Once you get a feel for the characters thats when the real subtle humor starts getting you.
That said my current favorite episode is where it keeps cutting to flashbacks of the father teaching lessons to all the kids by hiring his friend to pop up with a missing arm. Probably some of the funniest moments in television history

I am an Arrested Development fiend. Can't get enough. The DVDs are only like $20 a season...too bad people were too stupid to appreciate it.

lol. I think that may be the best part of AD, not that part in particular, but the fact that I can think about moments in the show and just laugh out loud or end up with a goofy grin on my face.

This thread inspired me to watch an episode while I got a snack.

Exclusive! Jason Bateman Confirms Arrested Development Movie Talks
This just might be the best news we Arrested fans have heard in a very long time.
Jason Bateman has just confirmed to me that the creative minds behind Arrested Development (Mitch Hurwitz and Ron Howard) have put the wheels in motion toward a major motion picture of the Fox TV comedy so many of us adore. I'm told by insiders that Jason and other Bluth family members have received calls from producers (Hurwitz and Howard) asking if they would be willing to shoot a movie.
"I can confirm that a round of sniffing has started," Bateman says. "Any talk is targeting a poststrike situation, of course. I think, as always, that it's a question of whether the people with the money are willing to give our leader, Mitch Hurwitz, what he deserves for his participation. And I can speak for the cast when I say our fingers are crossed."
Jeffrey Tambor also revealed on XM Radio's the Ron and Fez Show that he has been approached by Ron Howard to see if he's willing to do an Arrested film. (You can hear that interview below.)
For the record, both Jason and Jeffrey's answers were: Hells yeah. And I hear from other sources that other castmembers were called and that everyone seems to be very much on board and excited by the prospect.
Insiders also tell me that while creator Mitch Hurwitz does not yet have a script, he has a good, solid understanding of what he'd like to do for the movie, and Universal is very much interested.
And so it seems that a few good—wait, no, outrageously amazing—things just might come out of this unfortunate writers' strike, as the creative minds in this town have had time to pause, regroup and think about their dream projects.
And an Arrested movie is a pretty great dream, is it not?
So, let's join our crossed fingers with the rest of the cast, shall we? And how about a little support in the Comments section below?

The never-nude episode kills me.
But there's not a single moment on there that doesn't crack my shit up.
Never did get to see season 3.
But one and two are fucking ace!
Good to see some other fans on The Shroomery.
And, Fox was so fucking stupid for canceling that show.
