I couldn't find the older thread anywhere, so I take it the thread's been removed because of the site updates a while back. So....

[FONT=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]I recently sat down and rewatched the second season. If it's even possible, I love this show even more tthi[/FONT][FONT=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]han the first time I got into it. The cast nails their parts down perfectly, but I have to say my somewhat updated/new favorites on [/FONT][FONT=arial, helvetica, sans-serif]s show are... drumroll...

- Tobias. I don't think any other person could make being blue any funnier than he can. And Mrs. Featherbottom. Pure genius. The exact plot of Mrs. Doubtfire.

- GOB. Will Arnett's great. Every time he screws something up it's hilarious. And Franklin. Jeez.

- Lucille. She is perfect with her sharp-tongued insults. "

- Buster. Motherboy gets me cracking. MOTHER!

The regular guests are great too. Barry Zuckercorn. Just fantastic.

Best comedy ever....what more's to be said?

The perfect cast, writing, wit, intelligence...it has so many jokes that you won't appriciate untill viewing it for a second or third time because you missed it first time. It has infinite rewatchability.

One of my favorite parts of the whole series is when Mrs. Featherbottom tries to imitate Marry Poppins and falls off the landing, through the glass coffee table. Just thinking about it makes me laugh.
 
''You have heard of when the host body rejects transplants? In this case, the transplants are rejecting the host...'' :woot:
 
AD saddens me to think of how soon it was taken away from its audience. For F*** SAKE, FOX, HOW F***ING STUPID DO YOU HAVE TO BE TO CANCEL ONE OF THE BEST COMEDIES EVER TO GRACE TELEVISION. Congratulations, you have put your network in the TV HALL OF SHAME!!!!
I'm sorry, that could have been a much longer tirade, but I think I'll just cool down.
 
Eh, Fox had it on for 2.5 seasons while ABC, NBC and CBS would've cancelled it after the first month. Of course it would've premiered earlier in the fall and not during November sweeps and might have a better marketing team to market what the critics said was the funniest new show of the fall.

We've got the DVDs and didn't see it jump the shark. Except that one episode when Henry Winkler did.
 
If it was on FX, we would still have it...
 
"No, I know her name's not Annabelle. That's how I remember her name, 'cause her body's kind of shaped like a... She's the belle of the ball."
 
one of the funniest sitcoms ever.:up:
 
I loved this show to death.I ran into Micheal Cera who played George micheal at my local best buy 2 weeks ago.Really nice guy,he was picking up the larry sanders show.
 
Arrested creator, Mitch Hurwitz and Arrested writer, Richard Day have a ABC political comedy that might get picked up next week. Its based of a BBC comedy, The Thick of It. So think The Office meets US Congress.

PRINCIPAL CAST INFORMATION:
· Alex Borstein as Hope Mueller
· John Michael Higgins as Albert Alger (he played Wayne Jarvis)
· Michael McKean as Glen Glahm
· Oliver Platt as Malcolm Tucker
· Rhea Seehorn as Ollie Tadzio
· Wayne Wilderson as Taylor

Christopher Guest is directing the pilot.
 
I loved this show ever since I discovered it a few months back and have recommended it whenever I got the chance. It is truly the best sitcom ever. GOB is my fave character of the bunch, because he's just so friggin' hilarious (especially when doing his magic acts).

Illusions. When he does his illusions. :oldrazz:
 
The world just wasn't ready for the awesomeness.
 
I saw how a lot of people on here love this show, so I gave it a chance awhile back. But I didnt really like it, so I stopped watching it. Then a few months ago I saw a new thread on here about the show, so I gave it another chance. For some reason I loved it the second time. Now I own the three seasons and I pretty much watch them whenever I'm bored. I wish I would have supported it when it was new.
 
Wheeenever I feel a wee bit scared I hum a little tune. Hum didily didily...
 
I am going to try and watch Let's Go to Prison today because it has will arnett in it....Im hoping it's basically GOB goes to prison although it probably wont be...

speaking of which I love prison break in, where he has the map of the prison drawn on his chest...upside down :D
 
My favorite ep is with the blind lawyer.
"Justice is blind." lol
 
My favourite would probably be "Good Grief", only because Charlie Brown is teh awesome.
 
I miss Lucille and Buster and Tobias. I like that Lucille ended up being the most villanous one in the end.
 
Ive always heard about what a great show this was and all the buzz it had when it was on the air and all teh controversy there. I never checked it out though. However I saw it on G4 earlier this year and fell in love with it. I scored the entire series worth of DVDs for about $30 and have been watching it. I love this show and I only wish I had discovered it when it actually mattered. Good stuff
