Who here *doesn't* watch Arrested Development?

Not open for further replies.
My brother just watched it for the first time last week and I came back to my room to find like 5 MSN messages featuring quotes from the show. He's pretty hooked; going to propose that we each get one of the two Season Sets for Christmas so he can catch up and I can watch it whenever I want.
 
i watched one or two, but I don't watch much TV to begin with. I mainly wanted to watch it for Steven Cross, but I don't really like his character. I like that a quirky show is surviving though.
 
I don't watch it much, but I've been wanting to. I've seen a few episodes and loved what I saw. Blame my forgetfulness for not watching it religiously.
 
it's fantastic.

the scene with Lindsay trying to pick up Maebe's boyfriend at her school was priceless :lol

THANK YOU STEVE *husky voice*

Sort of a spoiler I guess.

What makes that even funnier is that Steve is Lindsay's nephew :lol
 
I've seen the show, all of season 1, but none of season 2. It's good but I don't see why it gets such a crazed following around here. It's nothing spectacular.

Gob is not her uncle, he's her brother, thus nephew.

Gob's Wife: I'm in love with your brother-in-law.
Gob: You're in love with your own brother? The one in the army?
Gob's Wife: No, your sister's husband.
Gob: Michael? Michael!
Gob's Wife: No, that's your sister's brother.
Gob: No, I'm my sister's brother. You're in love with me - me.
Gob's Wife: I'm in love with Tobias.
Gob: My brother-in-law?
Gob's Wife: I know it can never be, so I'm leaving. I'm enlisting in the army.
Gob: To be with your brother ..
Gob's Wife: No!

Unless there is going to be a major plot development tonight, you are confusing Lindsey with Maeby.

Enough with this spoiler crap, here's the family tree: (as currently known)
Code: 
George Bluth, Sr. m. Lucille Bluth
  |- George 'Gob' Bluth II
  |  |-- Steve Holt (mother: Eve Holt)
  |- Michael Bluth m. Tracy (deceased)
  |  |-- George-Michael Bluth
  |- Lindsay Bluth Fünke m. Tobias Fünke
  |  |-- Mae 'Maeby' Fünke (possibly adopted)
  |- Byron 'Buster' Bluth
Lindsay and GOB are siblings, their children would be cousins. Also, not that it factors into how they relate to each other, but Michael and Lindsay are twins.

Maeby can't be adopted, since she is Steve Holt's cousin.

Do you even watch this show? :) It's only been a running joke since season 1. I think it might even be older than the "Oscar is Buster's father" joke.

Who?

You not only don't like his character... You don't even care enough to know his name.





AD is the best show on television. Between AD and Curb I'm set. I really digged the season premier of Extras also. *hugs tivo*

Uh... what? While there are running jokes on the show, I don't think they would purposely give false information. The fact that Steve Holt is GOB's son and that he and Maeby are cousings means that Lindsay, at least, has to be her real parent. EDIT: And I don't get what you mean by "'Oscar is Buster's father' joke." It's a joke as in it's funny, but it's true within the storyline.

  |- Michael Bluth m. Tracy (deceased)
  |  |-- George-Michael Bluth

  |  |-- Mae 'Maeby' Fünke (Made in a cup, like soup. Possibly adopted.)
  |- Annyong (adopted)
Oscar Bluth
  |- Byron 'Buster' Bluth (mother: Lucille Bluth)
 
Maeby IS adopted. If you're adopted, your uncle's son is still called your cousin, he's just not blood.

Besides, the stuff that comes in that "next time" bit is only rarely true, GOB still has his hands after all.

EDIT: Unless there's some other reason you guys are bringing this up I've missed anyway.

Adopted might not be the right word...it seems like she's a designer baby or something, from the amount of money that Lucille/George Sr. apparently sunk into it.
 
Well I got teh spoilered just coming in here to say "I haven't seen Season 2 yet, because it isn't out on DVD yet, so I'm not watching S3."
