Wasn't Arrested Development originally on Sunday night, the year before Desperate Housewives started? Nobody watched it then either. I'm surprised it didn't get canceled sooner.
what I really mean . . . I wish you were here

you're right, that was one of the time slots it was in...that was the other problem, they kept switching the days and times when it would be on, which was also stupid

the best thing about this show is that there is something that we all see in this show as happening at our office. The dork, the budding romance, the idiot boss, the different personalities.

they shouldn't have put it in the same time slot as monday night football. the fan base that watches mnf is probably the same as arrested development.

I guess i shouldn't give up hope...they did cancel Family Guy and look what happened there :o
The best hope is that Showtime picks it up.
Is it day?
