OK, we all know about Alan Tudyk was in one episode of Arrested Development (2X16), but did you know, Michael Hitchcock (Dr. Mathias from Serenity) was in one episode? It's Season 1, episodE 19. From all this time I've been watching this series (and I've seen it a lot) I never noticed till now. Hehe Joss is all around me...

I think that series would be very successful on HBO or Showtime, I'm honestly surprised it stayed on Fox as long as it did, way too smart for those hwoon-dahns.

Yea. I really do think it'll be picked up though. A LOT of people watch it...hell, they didn't win awards for nothing.

I can't wait to get 3rd season on dvd...I haven't seen any of it. Monday nights sucks for TV. They had a better time slot on Sundays.

Arrested Development was absolutely brilliant. FOX does get a bit of a reprieve from me for keeping it around for three seasons and for bringing back "Family Guy". So, I think FOX deserves a nice, cool glass of lemonade as they burn in hell for sabotaging and cancelling Firefly. But no refills.

Anyway, it didn't hurt AD to have so many powerful Hollywood types behind it either, and so many stars wanting to make cameos on the show.

Hope someone picks it up, it was a great show.

Yeah, I always liked Michael Hitchcock. Of the Christopher Guest ensemble, he's one of my favorites. And his guest stint on AD was great as well. How he insists on being called Ira, but everyone else refers to him as Gilligan. And GOB'S slip-up at the end was priceless.

"Gilligan killed the Skipper...stripper."

Although I was a bit bummed that he only lasts the first ten minutes of the movie. I dunno. Watching him getting killed by The Operative and seeing the horror striken look on Young Miss, I can't help but feel sympathy for them. Because they're not the embodiment of evil. They're just regular office workers living for the weekend. They have enough on their plate as it is. The last thing they need is some guy brandishing a sword, killing co-workers and telling them how to do their jobs.
