Arrested Development Season 4
 

Any Arrested Development fans out there? So excited for season 4 on Netflix coming May 26! Amazing that they are bringing the show back.

Can't wait! Conveniently, Netflix sent me a "please come back" email with a free trial offer just in time. I'll be watching.

Here is the trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C5ddjzGft0k

As a friend of mine said.....I'm as excited as Buster after he has had juice!

The Poppins house is stoked!

Yep. I'm re-subscribing to Netflix just for Arrested Development.

And hopefully, to catch up on a few movies.

But really, I'm just there for the Bluths.

I need to watch the first few seasons--I have been told it is right up my alley. Hopefully I'll find some time to get into it after the move!

It was the best show on TV. You MUST watch it lovespink88!

I can not wait!! We have been watching the reruns on Netflix. Seriously a good show and totally underrated like a couple of others we used to watch.

I am so stoked! I'm actually planning on having a AD viewing party at my house that day. I especially love how they are releasing the whole season all at once.

My son is too, and he is asking that everyone who attends comes dressed as their favorite character.

Yes! I'll be watching!

There's always money in the banana stand.

That is incredibly AWESOME!

Something to whet your appetite
 

My husband shared that with me and I just lost it. Laughed so hard tears rolled out of my eyes.

It just makes me want to set myself on fire!

Good one LXA SE285!

24 hours to go!!!

So where does everyone stand on watching all the episodes right away marathon-style, or spreading them out? My SO wants to watch them all at once, but I'd rather watch one or two at a time over an extended period. I feel like if I watch them all right away, when I get to end I'll feel like a kid the day after Christmas.

I plan to marathon, and then rewatch and savor them one by one.

I'm with FSUZeta.

I don't care, I'm very excited! The SF Chronicle wrote an article without spoilers. Found the link for it at The Daily Beast.

I went to a friends birthday party last night. She is a huge AD fan. One of her friends showed up dressed as Tobias. He had blue paint smudges all over him. She LOVED it! (He also hid blue paint smudges all over her house... she found about half of them last night, but the other half she'll apparently be looking for a while. I think that was her favorite present she got all night.

I'm watching it right now. Pretty funny so far.

Can't wait to get hom from NOLA tonight so we can start streaming it.

Im in South Carolina watching it at a friend's house. I'm going to have to get Netflix when I get home so I can watch the rest of the season. We got through two episodes yesterday.

I don't think it is as good as the original. I know that all the characters came back but I'm wondering if it is the same team of writers or a different team? That could explain the difference.

I've never watched it, but it seems like the type of show I'd like. Are the first three seasons on Netflix as well?

Yes!

Yes, Netflix has all of the original episodes. I never watched the show the first time around. My son got me started. I am part way through the first season right now.

So I'm only two episodes in but I'm not exactly impressed...Since AD was one of my all time favorite TV shows I had some high hopes but at the same time I realize that it's hard to recreate the genius that was AD 7 years after it went off the air.

The format seems a little different, but episode 3 has some glimmers of the old AD. And, what has happened to Portia di Rossi? She looks like an alien!

I read somewhere they were trying to shoot around everyone's schedules, and I think that showed.

Admittedly, I don't feel like it's as good as the original, but give it a few more episodes - everything builds on everything else, and it starts getting funnier when you see the same event from several different perspectives.

I had hoped for more Maeby. I think she's super funny, and I find Alia Shawkat to be much more talented than her "cousin" Michael Cera, who plays one character brilliantly - in everything he does.

Reportedly the episodes are each designed to focus more on one character than the others. So I think we can expect to get a Maeby episode!

I'm 5 episodes in. So far George Sr's is my least favorite storyline.

I actually watched the Maeby episode last night, and I think one scene in particular will be much-loved by the folks on GC. You'll know it immediately when you see it.
