It might actually be August; Fox has made comments about Prison Break getting six or seven episodes aired before baseball starts. If the entire schedule starts the same night, that might push them into mid-August. (Of course, if Prison Break has a two-hour premiere, that shaves a couple weeks...

East of the Mississippi, Monday Night Football doesn't start until after Arrested Development is finished (and these programming decisions are made in New York). And {insert snarky comment about the relative intelligence of Arrested Development's fans and football's here}.

Fox made noises last year about rolling shows out earlier so they're established before the baseball playoffs start; I wouldn't be surprised to see Arrested show up in September or even August to get a jump on the rest of the schedule. Also, if they start filming earlier, that gives them a...

You know, there are few times when I wish Fox was more like NBC, but when you look at the guest stars this show has had and how little awareness there seems to be of it, I don't know as pimping the guest stars like Will & Grace would necessarily be a bad thing.

Actually, they skipped last week because the local affiliates don't want Arrested Development stinking up their ratings during sweeps.

Sadly, Simpsons reruns often do better than first-run episodes of Arrested Development, and the local stations want the strongest schedule possible.

True, but where GOB often seeme pathetic or oblivious, here he was often coming off as a knowing, calculated jackass.

They've already won one, and the show is far funnier than Desperate Housewives. Then again, Gilmore Girls didn't win one in the years before Arrested Development premiered, so the voters are suspect.

I think the funniest bit had to be the Mexican cops piling onto George because they thought he was Oscar, complete with the late hit with the nightstick. I think I laughed hard enough to cause injury a few times during this episode.

Man, the quality television that could have been produced if the quick pull was around a few years earlier... Of course, when it started, Seinfeld was a much cheaper show to produce than Arrested Development is now - cast of unknowns, no name guest stars, no location shooting, a...

No, Patrick. That was too subtle for me to catch.

Nah, jump right in. One of the things the show does well is humorously integrating backstory via the narration and occasional quick flashbacks. Some of the running jokes won't hit you quite as hard as they do the rest of us, but this show isn't a David Greenwalt "two minute clip package that...
