Yes!!! The funniest show on television (sorry “The Simpsons,” that used to be you) hits stores today with its complete second season. I am so excited! Not having television means that I have to wait for some shows to hit disc before seeing them. When “Arrested Development” first started, I saw a few episodes of the first season while house-sitting and such. When that season got a dvd release, I immediately snapped it up and loved every minute of it.
It’s too bad the threat of cancellation looms over this show even though it’s won a bunch of Emmys and has a pretty rabid (though small) fan base. It would be nice if crap like (and here’s where you all are gonna hate me) “Family Guy” would go away and shows like “Arrested Development” would hang around. Join me in pledging your support for the funniest show on television. And if you have missed out on all the fun, there are dvd’s to be watched.
Go. Buy. Now!!!
So, yes, I’m a TV snob, but I was sorely disappointed in the second season–stopped watching altogether about midway through. Felt to me like knowing they WERE “The. Funniest. Show. On. Television.” in year one actually ruined year two. They were constantly trying to one-up themselves.
Anyway, the NEW Funniest Show on Television is Extras. Absolutely hysterical–best comedy from either side of the pond in many years. (I’ll put a couple on your first LOST DVD.)
