Title: arrested development
Post by: videoholic on February 12, 2005, 04:54:26 PM
Are you kidding me?  Fox has cut back on the show and the darn show is barely hanging on.  I can\'t possibly be the only one who likes this show.  It\'s like the only non cookie cutter show on TV.

Yeah. Its a great show. I don\'t know why people aren\'t watching it.

I like the Bernie Mac show too and Fox has banished it to primetime purgatory(Friday Nights).

Curb Your Enthusiasm is good, not cookie-cutter unless you\'re an obsessed Seinfeld fan.

I swear, Fox has a million great shows and cuts em all.  There are so many shows that have been on Fox that I\'ve loved, only to see them cut.  I just don\'t get it.

CYE isn\'t being cut though.  Arrested Development is just not catching on and it\'s sad.  It\'s one of the best shows on tv.  By far the most original comedy out there.

If it\'s not American Idol then FOX really doesn\'t care.

If it does get cut, I hope it gets picked up by another network.

Jason Bateman was pushing it hard on SNL.

Stop posting.  I\'ve got a string going here.

;)

BTW, have any of you ever head David Cross doing stand-up?  That dude is pretty freaking funny.

Fox needs to cut the bullshit and just greenlight the Millennium TV movie for Chris Carter.

Just do it, Fox.

Fox cancelled "Firefly" which was an awesome show.  They didn\'t even bother to air all the completed episodes.  Then Joss Whedon turned around and sold it to Universal Pictures as a feature film.  Principle photography is finished, and it\'s probably going to kick Fox in the teeth.  I hope several people at Fox get fired.

Fox has no idea how to market their shows. Some great shows have been on fox and all flopped because of stupid execs at fox.

I did not like Arrested at first but after watching it I realized it was a very good show. Sad it probably won\'t last.

You\'ve got to be kidding me.  You must have only seen one of them.  You have to watch a few I guess.  I mean the dude drives an airport staircase.  Does it get funnier than that?

I only watched a couple of episodes. I liked that it was different, and it did have some funny moments.

We haven\'t gotten CYE yet. I\'m a hardcore Seinfeld fan. :(

I was never a big fan of the show, mostly because I vowed never to watch Fox again after they cancelled Family Guy, but now that they are bringing it back, I\'ll give it a shot.
