    People aren't likable. That's real.

    It certainly makes things more interesting when they appear to be likable.

      Appears is a good word.

      It's definitely important that a despicable character appears likable. Someone that you like to see on screen bc of their interaction with other characters though not necessarily someone you like.

        I just finished re-watching this series for like the 6th time the other night.

        Such a brilliant show. Simply too many hilarious things/episodes to name.

        Can't wait for the re-boot on Netflix!

          Looks like Netflix has allegedly ordered more episodes, upping the total to somewhere between 12-15. They're targeting a spring premiere and will be releasing all episodes at the same time.

          EXCLUSIVE: Good news for Arrested Development fans. The new season of the cult Mitch Hurwitz comedy commissioned by Netflix will be larger than originally planned.


          Also, the fake movies/tv shows from Arrested Development are "on Netflix"

          So excited for the return

                Do they still have 30-day free trials?

                        Goodness, I'm going to swallow this entire season when it becomes available.

                        No date yet, right?

                            I'm hoping to have some people over and watch the entire season when it is unveiled - possibly covered in blue paint wearing jean cut-offs....

                              Also, I started bringing my lunch to work in this (when I don't eat out)... I wonder if anyone at the office will understand the reference.
