5.0 out of 5 stars
Smart and silly,
By
This review is from: Arrested Development: Season 3 (DVD)
Smart and silly... this series is wholly entertaining and sometimes surreal.Simultaneously subtle and slapstick, appealing at face value or in the layers carefully woven throughout subtext... this series is well written, cast and designed. Immensely satisfying... one cannot but feel a twang of sadness when reminded of the diminishing number of episodes that remain after each viewing.
5.0 out of 5 stars
I'd argue for this as funniest - and smartest - TV comedy series of all time,

This review is from: Arrested Development: Season Three (DVD)
Often brilliantly funny, inventive, surreal series about a rich family gone terribly wrong, and the onesane one trying to hold things together. Sort of what you might have gotten if George Bernard Shaw, Kaufman and Hart and Monty Python had teamed up to do a spin on a traditional sitcom. The acting is terrific, from top to bottom. Even producer Ron Howard's narration is great. Not every joke works, but as it gets weirder and weirder (and funnier and funnier), all I could think is "how the hell did they ever get this on network TV? And thank god they did!" The third season is truly insane (occasionally over-the-top, but usually successfully), with the addition of elements like Scott Baio's Bob Lawbla character, and self-referential episodes like `Save Our Bluths', about the cancelation of the show - which ranks as one of the biggest mistakes in the history of TV.

Pure Genius,

This review is from: Arrested Development: Season Three (DVD)
Anyone who says they don't like this show or "get the hype" obviously doesn't understand the genius that is Ron Howard. This show is mind-blowingly funny. The jokes weave in and out of episodes and are sometimes so subtle you feel like you've solved a puzzle when you recognize them. The story line is soap opera-esque, but the acting is superb and the writing is absolutely phenomenal. Arrested Development was before its time and it's really too bad that it got pulled. It was amazing for the 3 seasons it lasted and I can't wait for the movie!
