Anyone holding a viewing party for this? I was gonna call my friends up for a marathon but I don't know if I wanna watch it with my friends first because I just know I'll miss all the jokes. But that's what rewatches are for I guess. I've watched the show with my friends before and although it's mostly been fun, they get really easily distracted and talk while I silently judge them.

Edit: Just saw the new photos, and ouch. Lindsey looks awful.
 
This is the revealed poster

yay I guess

I must have some pretty low standards with regards to women's appearances but I'm honestly not getting why so many people keep saying this. Maybe not Victoria's Secret model level, but awful? *shrug*


Wow. That was impressively underwhelming. The ad campaign coming out of the twitter account seems a bit disjointed and off the cuff, almost like they're making it up as they go along. Maybe they blew all the marketing budget on the poster placements?

years of tv telling us what attractive people should look like/running hot women off as soon as they get their first wrinkle + internet anonymity-fueled hyperbole.

I don't mind the poster, but I know for darn sure that there won't be any more Saddam-related jokes/storylines anymore. Unless it's about ghost-Saddam (Husssssein), which could be awesome.
 
Lol, I'm pretty sure it's the opposite of that. She looks like she has had work done.

That's what I mean. (obvious stuff alert) TV has set up a standard of women's attractiveness (on tv) that pushes women over thirty out the door fairly quickly unless they have work done to make their skin tighter/looking younger. We notice the "work" as a sign that they are (1) actually older than they appear, (2) have acknowledged that they do not belong in the category of attractive enough for tv and (3) that they have changed what was originally beautiful about their appearance.

Our concept of beauty has been manipulated by a box (and the old, ugly, wrinkled men at the other end of the cables and satellites determining for us what beauty is).

That is why she had (obvious) work done.

Anyway, it's still Portia.

The only thing she really needs is Adkins. I mean, what a fatty, amirite, guys?
 
A word to the wise, there is a world premiere of some/all of the new episodes at the red carpet today. We could be seeing some major spoilers pop up on the internet come tomorrow. Be on your guard, everyone, AND SPOILER TAGS!
 
Oh my God the first 2 eps of the new ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT. Too...many...jokes...head...splitting. Need to take a Forget Me Now.

Someone just let slip a joke/reference/surprise in the new ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT that, if true, is melting my head. #holyshit

Needless to say, they're good.
 
Patton Oswalt seems like someone who would overhype something. I'll keep my hype in check.

I can taste the happy, and it tastes so good.

I'd be curious to find out if anyone can tell us what the episode run-times are.

he is quite exuberant

another guy from reddit was there and enjoyed them

They certainly felt like the old ones, the writers haven't missed a beat. The only thing I noticed was different was the camera work. It felt like more single camera than a multiple take view.

Thank you for this. Not going anywhere near any Arrested Development related page on the internet until May 26th.

USA Today article about the premiere (don't worry, there's no spoilers).

One thing from the article caught my eye was apparently the first episode has a new title: Flight of the Phoenix.

From the article:
"Inside the TCL Chinese Theatre, the crowd hollered their thanks, greeting series creator Mitch Hurwitz with a long standing ovation. "You haven't seen it yet!" Hurwitz jokingly admonished the audience before introducing Season 4's first episode, Flight of the Phoenix
 
This wait is killing me. It has been a long, long 7 years. I can't even believe that I have to type out that it has been that long. It sure doesn't seem like it.
 
There is a fellow (on Reddit) that went to the premier last night and hes talked a bit about the show.Assume spoilers are contained.

And here is a whole slew of cast photos from last night no spoilers, except for

Will Arnett really needs to lay off of the fake tanner.
 
I'm looking forward to how they continue the Gerorge Micheal - Maeby relationship lol. It's still impressive how they made that consistently funny.
