So every episode is set at the same time? That's really interesting and something I've wanted to see a TV show try and tackle for some time now. Can't fucking wait.
i will do the same.WtOB? wrote:I'm watching the first three seasons again now in anticipation. This show gets better every time I watch it.
Oscar: Hi. This is Oscar. I’m off pursuing my lady love. Leave a message. I’ll get back to you next summer.
Michael: Hey, it’s Michael. I know that you think that you’ve disappeared, but I will find you.
George Michael: Who’s... who’s disappeared?
Michael: No one. Why do you ask? Have you seen someone?
George Michael: I’ve seen no one!
Michael: Then you haven’t seen anyone who looks like Pop-Pop?
George Michael: No. Why? Has someone who looks like Pop-Pop disappeared?
Michael: No. Of course not.
Michael: What do you think of when you hear the word, "Sudden Valley"?
George Michael: Salad dressing, I think. But for some reason I don't want to eat it.
Michael: Right. But, "Paradise Gardens"?
George Michael: Yeah... Okay, I can... I can see marinating a chicken in that.

This is exactly what I thought. Not only was I lol'n, but I was thinking to myself "self, these guys don't seem to have missed a beat". Great clip.@SkitchP wrote:McParadigm wrote:That's a pretty great example of how perfectly they cast those roles.

Yeah the encouraging part about that, despite the fact there wasn't really anything to gauge in terms of the writing, is that it felt like Arrested Development. My fear when they announced that it was coming back was that despite good writing and acting, is that after 7 years it wouldn't feel right.
Good.@SkitchP wrote:yepdarth_vedder wrote:Is this guy gonna be in this thing?

Yeah this thread is gonna be a cluster of talk about different episodes all over the place.@SkitchP wrote:turned2black wrote:How do you guys feel about the new season being released all at once?
