Title: Arrested Development : Season Four Post by: Vaporman87 on May 24, 2013, 08:41:14 PM I searched but did not see a thread on the new season yet. I am looking forward to it's return, and I hope they have stayed as faithful to the original run as possible. Any thoughts on the new season?

There were no huge, classic laughs, but for a series fan it was fun to see what the characters were up to over the years. I wasn't crazy about Michael's plot line (the first episode), but they seem to be getting better as things come together. Interested to see what's up with the ostrich.

Title: Re: Arrested Development : Season Four Post by: dean on May 28, 2013, 09:23:49 AM I just signed up to a vpn and netflix purely so I could just check it out. I wasn't wild about the last season [the hair plugs plot line bugged me] but I still love the show.
Early thoughts are that its not bad, but not brilliant. My housemate says it gets alot better after a while and repeat viewings, but I'll wait and see. Title: Re: Arrested Development : Season Four Post by: Vaporman87 on May 28, 2013, 12:19:05 PM Indeed. After view episodes 4 to 9, the show is getting better. The writing is funnier and the characters, especially in their interactions with new characters, is improving. I especially like the numerous references to prior seasons and the way in which each family member's story ties into the overall story arch. I'm pleased with it so far.
Title: Re: Arrested Development : Season Four Post by: spongekryst on May 28, 2013, 10:41:18 PM It's not perfect, but it is sure as hell close enough. So far it (4 episodes in) has me hooked and I look forward to watching the rest. Alia Shawcat is still beautiful.
Title: Re: Arrested Development : Season Four Post by: JayJayM12 on May 30, 2013, 10:17:23 AM I'm loving the new season so far. I'm about 7 episodes in (my original plan was to watch them all on the night they came out, but that didn't happen).
It's not quite as laugh-a-minute as the previous seasons, but I think the writing is still top-notch. The cast is all back in fine form as well. I can't wait to finish it up... |
