I defintely plan on watching. I've heard great things about the show from Zap2it.com and I also like Portia De Rossi.

I was able to attend a preview of this show this past week in a movie theater, and I loved it. It is very different from the usual sitcom, the humor is more subtle and I feel hilarious and insightful, and I recommend that the viewer actually pay close attention to the show. The is humor in the smallest of scenes and even in facial expressions. Not sure the average viewer will get it, but I feel there wasn't one lame moment in the show. Definitely worth taping because the show has so much in it that you may even miss some of the best parts with paying close attention, and honestly it is worth seeing again.

"Arrested Development" is the best new comedy this Fall.

I never thought I would actually say this but Jason Bateman was very funny.
Not to mention there is a great supporting cast to boot.

Thumbs up kids, this show is brilliant.

Yep.All of that but remember, "FOX" and "Brilliant Sitcom" in the same sentence usually means "Cancelled by January"

.

Also, I hope they do more with Mae and George Michael.They are my new favorite sitcom couple!
