I thought you meant the music group from back in the day....

Still haven't gotten into The Office yet. Everytime I load up an episode I doze off. Honestly I'm trying to but it just doesn't capture me.

Deg',

Spend 1 hour on The Office. Watch the first two episodes back to back in one shot.

I guarantee you will fall in love with it!

this has been my favourite tv show by far for a long time now, and none of my friends seem to like it. the only other show that comes close that's not in syndication is curb your enthusiasm

Need to revitalize this thread as this show is one of the best but might not make it.

Peope are too caught up in really bad television (reality tv) to realize there are other good shows out there.

That's sad that a good comedy like AD (never actually watched it b/c I ALWAYS work Sunday Nights), get's canned when crap reality shows like The Bachelorette (sp?) comes back for more 3x a year. I have not watched prime time television in 2 years (save for the odd news special) and I don't think I'm missing much at this point. I want to get into AD - maybe Fox will put it on another night or HBO will pick it up if it does get canned. BTW, anyone ever watch Nip/Tuck? My cousin got into this (bought season 1 DVD without even watching or hearing about it) and he absolutely loves it.

you know something. I think I've watched it once this year. I still love the show, but got tired of the switch in times on a week to week basis.

It's not like 24 that I can't miss...

I will renew the efforts though...

If this show gets cancelled, s*** is going to fly. Seinfeld, Fraiser, then the cancellation of Enterprise, and now maybe Arrested Development. What the heck am I supposed to watch? Reality? The last thing we need is another show about real life, TV is supposed to be an escape.

I really think Fox will pick up this show at least for the beginning of Season 3. I know they cut the order for this season short (by two episodes), but Fox seems to be making some effort to assure people that AD will not be cancelled.

This is the message from http://fox.com/arresteddev/

Dear Arrested Development Fans:

Thank you for your e-mail and your passionate support of Arrested Development. While the show has finished production for its second season, contrary to the rumors you may have heard or read on the internet, it is NOT cancelled.

We at FOX love Arrested Development and we look forward to having the Bluth family back on FOX in the future – hopefully for many years. You can help make the show a bigger success by getting as many people as possible to start watching the show this Sunday and every Sunday at 8:30 p.m. ET/PT.

Sincerely,
Fox Broadcasting Company


At any rate, I hope the ratings pick up. There are some great guest starts in the next few weeks, like Julia Louis Dreyfus and Zack Braff. And Bateman was pretty good on SNL this past weekend.

Hey brother

i can't believe this show was 74th!!! people are too busy watching other people people in "realistic" situations (the bachol/ette, nanny 911, wife swap, all kinds of ***** like that)

i was angry when showcase stopped playing curb your enthusiasm, and now i don't want to lose this show to the premium networks as well

They're not switching times - it's just on sporadically. But for next week, they're replacing AD with a repeat of the Simpsons - sadly, the reality is more people will watch that over a new episode of AD. I was also pretty mad when I found out American Dad is bumping AD starting May 1st.

Just so everyone knows - the next new episode is...

Sunday March 6th at the regular time (8:30 pm) and it's a double episode (an hour long). Spread the word!
