On The Next...Arrested Development

Now the story of a wealthy family who lost everything, and the one son who had no choice but to keep them all together.

The show with the running gags, witty jokes, great actors, and references high and low. This thread might contain spoilers for those who haven't seen this show, but if you haven't you're a heathen anyway so...

The Cast: Michael Bluth-is the second oldest Bluth son, and the father of George Michael Bluth.
Lindsay Bluth Fünke-is the
adopted
daughter of George Sr. and Lucille, but is ostensibly Michael's twin sister.
George Oscar Bluth, Jr., called G.O.B.-is the eldest Bluth son and the father of Steve Holt.
Byron "Buster" Bluth-the youngest son of George Sr. and Lucille
although he is actually the son of Oscar
George Michael Bluth -called George Michael, is the young teenage son of Michael Bluth.
Mae "Maeby" Fünke -is the teenage daughter of Lindsay and Tobias.
Tobias Fünke-is the husband of Lindsay Bluth and the father of Maeby Fünke.
George Oscar Bluth, Sr., called "Poppop" by his grandchildren-is the head of the Bluth family and the husband of Lucille Bluth.
Lucille Bluth-is the mother of G.O.B., Michael, Buster, and the adopted Lindsay and Hel-loh "Annyong" Bluth, as well as wife to George Sr.

And let's not forget: Narrator, Ann Veal (or Bland), Barry Zuckerkorn (the attorney), Kitty "Say Good-Bye to These" Sanchez, Lucille Austero (Lucille 2), Lupe (the housekeeper), Oscar Bluth (Bluth Sr.'s Identical Twin), Steve Holt, Bob Loblaw, Hel-loh "Annyong" Bluth, and so many more Quirky minor characters

Let us discuss one of the best comedy's of all time and how we all yearn to own The Man Inside Me.

Also discuss what you think what will become of the movie

(suggestions for the OP greatly appreciated)

    you don't need a real OP because mostly everyone here has seen the show

    the thing I don't like about this and Futurama threads/jokes (probably more) is that everyone acts all surprised when they find someone else making a reference to those two shows like they didn't expect anyone to catch on when we've had these threads a hundred times

    Especially in Arrested Development where the joke is funny because of the way it fits into the continuity.

    I hope the movie comes out this year. I mean it's a comedy it shouldn't take to long to shoot and post-produce, right. Although with this show you don't know, they might do something CRAZY.

    Didn't Michael Cera say he didn't want to do a movie? I really hope that's not true.

    I have yet to get my friends into this show, I think it's because the first episode is kind of slow and you need to really get to know the characters a bit more before it becomes AWESOME

    Apparently he is the last cast member that they are trying to lock down for the movie. George Michael thinks he is too big for his britches now apparently.

    All they need to do is find another awkward teenage boy to not act and bam he is replaced.



    Alternatively, they should get George Michael to play George Michael.
