trippkc 0 Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 Well, there has been more than enough crap in general this weekend so I figure I might as well start a debate that probably won't end in someone writing a letter to DN to ban someone.Is there anything on TV right now funnier than Arrested Development? I didn't start watching it till mid second season, but I am now caught up on the majority of season 1 and2. Nearly every scene is laugh out loud funny and it is very original, I have never seen anything like it. I couldn't believe Fox was considering cancelling this show, it's a good thing they didn't.OK, discuss... Link to post Share on other sites

TheIceman05 0 Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 No, it's one of the best written shows since Seinfeld.I always keep a running tab of funniest moments of my life, and #4 right now is the first time I saw the episode where Buster as a child throws the Dustbuster at the city bus becase he's mad at the Hispanic maid."...and Buster threw what he thought was her favorite toy at what he thought was her car."Classic.Ice Link to post Share on other sites

Â Nearly every scene is laugh out loud funny and it is very original, I have never seen anything like it. Â I couldn't believe Fox was considering cancelling this show, it's a good thing they didn't.OK, discuss...There's very little to choose from. All of the truly funny shows are leaving us. Fox continues to threaten to cancel AD and NBC is all but finished with Scrubs. I'm holding out hope for My Name is Earl, though. Word is, it tested better than any NBC sitcom in recent memory (including Friends), and it's a chance for the Lee to show the world how truly talented he is.I make it a point to watch Reno 911! and Stella every week.Edit: Teen Titans has some pretty funny moments as well. When I want truly good TV, though, I have to get the DVDs out. I just finished re-watching The Office, and have now moved on to Firefly. Now we need MTV to cut through the red tape and The State on DVD and I can die happy. Link to post Share on other sites

Now we need MTV to cut through the red tape and The State on DVD and I can die happy.It's true, although I heard that NBC isn't canceling Scrubs, they are planning to bring it back in the spring (hopefully). Before I started watching Arrested Development, Scrubs was by far my favorite show on network TV. I forgot to mention Curb Your Enthusiasm as I think this it is really the only other show to be in the running for "Funniest Thing On Now." I enjoy Stealla and Reno 911, but for some reason I have a problem remembering to watch these shows, I think it has something to do with them being on Comedy Central. If you enjoy Stella then I assume you've seen the movie "Wet Hot American Summer" which is also brilliant and hillarious.p.s. My Name Is Earl could be good, but the previews for it just don't look that interesting or funny. Link to post Share on other sites
