terry crews was criminally underused in his brief spot.
kristen wiig was great.

overall, boring.

CERTIFIED: BORING

maybe?

I enjoyed it but I thought some of the episodes really dragged.

Michael Cera has gone from awkward cute nerdy teenager to awkward creepy trying to hid his huge bald patch 40 year old.

That's why he starts dressing like GOB

hnibos · 05-28-2013, 03:02 PM

Michael Cera is extremely ugly.

can we talk about the ending yet? i wasn't expecting anything to be resolved so the hasty ending that segued directly into movie-style credits, i think, was a perfect set up for the upcoming movie.

apparently the entire cast was only together for 2 days of shooting which would explain the piece-meal style of narrative. i enjoyed the reconstructed story through the use of flashbacks and it made the roofie jokes even funnier. i enjoyed watching all the timelines eventually sync up and so on and so on.

the biggest in-joke, i think, was the idea of having a cast member sign a release form for the exchange of a favor. that would explain all of the tiny cameos by so many people.

It actually takes you to reddit's arrested development forum. Lot of good stuff on there involving hidden jokes and themes.

FINALLY was able to watch the finale. Overall, excellent. You definitely couldn't watch one per week for 15 weeks and enjoy it. This was made to be binged on, for sure.

I really like when the whole family is together, so it did kind of suck that that wasn't really possible. But the way everything came together was pretty brilliant. Not as good as 1 and 2, better than 3. I think. But I haven't re-watched in a while.

Will probably re-watch season 4 relatively soon. I'm sure I missed a ton of stuff.

slunken · 06-06-2013, 07:01 PM

i've only seen the original series once so instead of re-watching 4 right away i went back to the beginning.

Overall I liked it but it definitely suffered from not being able to get the cast together at the same time. The last four or five episodes were great but it took a few to get going. Got better as it went along and you saw everything coming together. I am torn about them using other actors for younger George Sr. and Lucille since they didn't do that in the previous seasons but also because Wiig was so great and Rogen was just sort of there. Overall, probably a solid B.

My favorite is the Maeby episode. Then again, I've always had a crush on Alia Shawkat..

Trotskilicious · 06-20-2013, 01:51 AM

She's less than a year younger than me. Still, thanks for making me feel like duovamp.
