Arrested Development
After much peer pressure and constant badgering, I have finally jumped on the Arrested Development bandwagon. Okay it wasn’t constant badgering, but it sure felt like it! I am still just enjoying the first season, but so far…wow. I can already tell it is one of those shows you have to watch each episode more than once to even catch half of the jokes because it is so fast paced. Although mostly outrageous beyond belief, some situations and characters hit very close to home. Let’s just say the mother, Lucille, is a striking resemblance of someone I know in real life. It’s funny because it’s true! I adore Michael Cera and how awkwardly shy he is. It is kind of a buzzkill getting so hooked on a show when you know it’s doomed fate. I’m trying not to let that sway me at all though. All the characters are quirky and bring something to the table. I don’t think I have a favorite yet.
