you can get one of those fancified usb video output things for pretty cheap, if your computer doesn't already have an s-video out on it.

My laptop does have an S-video output, but how much work do you guys want me to have to do to watch this?

Can't I just buy the dvd?

I'm getting satellite toute suite. Maybe I'll be able to watch it. It's good news if it happens, it would be a shame to let it go down the tubes.

My thoughts exactly. As much as I'd love to continue watching this show every week, I'm not subscribing to $50/month cable to do it. Maybe one of my friends with cable will be kind enough to have me over on nights it airs.

I already have the best package they offer on DirecTV, so I'd be MORE than happy to see Showtime pick it up.

If they do, the show will only get weirder. Which is saying something. A good thing.

This would be awesome but I wouldn't subscribe to Showtime for it. I'll just d/l the episodes to keep up and then buy the dvd's whenever they're put out.

i've watched it plenty----it's fine, a very entertaining show but you guys act like its the fucking alpha and omega of television....

no offense, and i am a huge fan of TV, but ive never seen a show that would prompt me to start a write-in campaign or publically complain if it went away. thats shut-in territory in my book. and speaking of books.....if you feel this passionately about a television program you might consider picking one up every now and again.

shit happens.

I don't get all the hatred for all the love for this show. Quite a few people on this board (myself included) REALLY ENJOY it. When I find something that I REALLY ENJOY (<-- doesn't happen very often), I like it to stay in my life for more than 2 or 3 years. Maybe other people do, too? It seems to be the case.

I haven't been this passionate about a show since my 6th grade love for "Parker Lewis Can't Lose." "Arrested Development" is, in all honesty, my favorite show of all time. It helps me to forget all of the other crappy shows that are enjoying some success (CSI, Two and 1/2 Men, Lost, etc).

Huh? What "hatred" are you seeing?

And you've really gotta contort yourself to so earnestly defend your love for AD on the one hand while dismissing another Obner obsession on the other.
