Have you watched Arrested Development yet this weekend? Do you like it? Do you think the characters are similar to those of The Godfather? You might be surprised how close they are.
i watched the first new episode last night, and i was really not happy with it. i will keep watching, but i found it unsettling to see jason bateman's character turned into such a pathetic loser. but hey, maybe he will run into his family and then hit his stride again.
It's seems like its finding it's rythm a little more, the more episodes I watch. I just finished four - and michaels " dream team " had me in tears - and I agree annaaaa - I barely recognize Portia as well
My husband and have watched through episode seven. At first I wasn't happy with how Michael's (Jason Bateman) character was behaving, but they explained it. All of the cameos have been excellent and the MST3K reference cemented myhusband and my love of this show.
Betty K, thanks for mentioning the part about the nod to Rod Howard's secret daughter. I totally thought of this website. I had to rewatch that part twice - the Terrence Malick reference killed me.
Also, yes, Portia's new look is so distracting. And it's really sad. I've only watched 6 episodes so far, but the non-Michael ones are the best.
Don't plan on it.
ReplyDeleteHaven't seen any episode and none of the Godfather movies.
I'm up to episode 5 & loving it.
ReplyDeleteJust finished it. Loved so many things...one of which was speculating on Ron Howard's illegitimate children... Great shout outs to the gossip
ReplyDeletePortia DeRossi is almost unrecognizable.
ReplyDeleteThis is pretty funny!

ReplyDeleteYes! Portia's face is so distracting. Nice shout out to Ryan Seacrest as well!

ReplyDeleteThe Corleone family was based on the Borgias.
