Baby we got ourselves a stew going!

Well then Where the fuck is Gene Parmesan?

Look at that EW cover again. Lindsay is sitting on him.

This shit is on.

What is it with hollywood photo shoots and ladders?

I see what you did there.

 

[Jedeye Sniv]

I actually checked.

 

[Keru_Shiri]

...yoink. Thanks!

 

[gutshot]

Definitely watch it again. You'll pick up references to stuff that doesn't payoff until a year or two later(like Buster's hand).

The show is like an onion. Start peeling.

Yeah, I just rewatched the series for like the fourth time and when Buster gets his hand chair back, he says "I never thought I would miss a hand so much." That was the first time I caught that line. I love how everything is foreshadowed.

 

[BluWacky]

Oh man. I may not post in AD threads but that episode and Lucille's reactions absolutely rank as some of my top comedy moments ever.

That whole episode... good times.

I would love Gene Parmesan to come back again.

Portia and Ellen also chatted about “Arrested Development.” FOX canceled the sitcom in 2006, but Netflix brought it back to life in 2011 by purchasing its rights. Filming has already begun and will continue through December. Portia explained that all new episodes would release as a block and be available exclusively on Netflix in April 2013. “The entire cast is back together and it’s like no time has passed at all,” Portia told Ellen on Tuesday. “Everyone is the same on and off camera. It’s kind of amazing.”

So...April 2013?

I don't think Portia would be the one to know.

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

Will Arnett on Conan just implied that

Spoiler

Andy Richter and/or Conan O'Brien

will be in the new season.

Confirmation Image here?

 

[Hindle]

I'm so glad I only started watching this recently, with only 6 months to go before it returns. Watching the final episode 6 years ago knowing that's it, man I'd have been devastated.

 

[jetpacks was yes]

Just imagine watching it from the beginning of season 1, and not knowing if the next episode would be the last.

But now it feels good. B)

Damn near spit out my drink. Damn you, sir.

 

[JehutyRunner]

So, Michael Cera's apparently a writer for this season!

Oh, and

Spoiler

Lupe is back!

Clark and Michael was pretty funny, but I'll keep my hype to a minimum.

 

[CrunchyFrog]

News roundup for a couple of things over the last month or so, since this thread's gotten quiet lately:

As posted above, Michael Cera will be a writer on the show in the new season, and Lupe is returning

Well what do you know, the AD Documentary guys pop up with another last trailer after a several year hiatus, convenient timing

Garcelle Beauvais from Franklin and Bash looks to be gearing up for an appearance in the new season

EDIT: Forgot one. Maria Bamford will play a recurring character this season

And some interviews:
Q&A with Alia Shawkat
A nice and meaty interview with Tony Hale
And some bits from Tommy Tutone, who will be directing several episodes in the coming season

 

[Hindle]

For Britiiiiiiish eyes only! Ugh let's hope that's not back. I never did get why they put that sub plot in.

My hype is through the roof, it is too late for me.
I have prematurely shot my wad on what was supposed to be a dry run if you will, so I'm afraid I have something of a mess on my hands.

Thats nice. Still waitingggg....

Me too! High five w/ both hands!

 

[mclem]

I don't think Portia would be the one to know.

Well, the circumstances look like a promotional tour (assuming they weren't just having a chat over the dinner table), so I'd assume she's been briefed.

Oh wow, that's the first I've heard of this. The tone of the trailer is perfect. I'm really curious how it changed at all because of the show coming back.

 

[Willkiller]

Charlize

Probably my favourite character in the whole series

Funny. That's my text ring tone.

Isla Fisher on 'Arrested Development': 'I love all the Bluths'

lol I currently have "Steve Holt!" as my text tone.

BTW here is an excellent collection for AD ringtones

Bluths Love Isla!

 

[Sielys]

The only part of the series I didn't enjoy. I can't objectively say why I don't like it though.

 

[God...frey Jones]

Isla Fisher will be fantastic. She was great in Wedding Crashers. Good stuff!

 

[gutshot]

So apparently John Beard, the newscaster that was used for all the random local news stuff, did some filming for the new season. I wonder if Trisha Thoon will make an appearance as well?

ETA: Just read that Beard was no longer working in the LA market, so they flew him in from Buffalo for a day to film his stuff. That's awesome.

At this point I feel like anyone who ever had any screen time at all in the original seasons will be in this thing. They'll recruit every extra to be extras again.

I'll be honest, it feels crowded. :[
With every actor confirmation that pops up I get a little more nervous.

What a strange thing to be nervous about.

Any AD fan will know the show is built around callbacks, in-jokes, foreshadowing, etc, so all the returning bit-part characters are important for the revival.

Is there any chance this will get a 5th season if 4 does well or will we be back to wishing for more AD once this airs?

 

[Sai-kun]

EDIT: Forgot one. Maria Bamford will play a recurring character this season

Omgosh. I love her. Awesome!

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

IIRC. I think Netflix said that was a possibility. They might just skip the movie and make another season.

this is what i'm hoping for, i'd rather them do another 2-3 seasons than make a movie

Netflix CEO comments on Facebook cause uproar and allegations from SEC

It is made of iron.

Also

Her?

Didn't know this! She's great! For those not familiar, here's her Christmas special: http://vimeo.com/7941087

There's absolutely a chance for a 5th season as well.

 

[VGChampion]

I agree. I like watching shows like this with friends and family for months at a time going through the series every so often. A movie just wouldn't be as fun as another season.

 

[Fantastical]

3 seasons (okay 2 would be nice too ) and I would forget about a movie, even though it would be an awesome experience to go to the movie theater to see the Bluth's final adventures.

 

[jamesinclair]

I smile every time I see this and I think "its actually happening".

 

[Staccat0]

I feel like the kid who found the severed hand...
