   I bought season 1 of “Arrested Development” because of the rave reviews posted here, and I feel gypped. The characters are complete stereotypes– unusual stereotypes, admittedly– but totally cardboard. The level of unpredictable interaction among the characters is virtually nil, and the story lines are silly without being entertaining. I’m amazed that so many reviewers found it so satisfying. Compared to, say, “Weeds,” this series has no grip or bite.

   This is a fake imitator of Malcolm in the Middle and Scrubs watch those two shows instead.This crap should not be up for an emmy they should.Scrubs is Hill-ari-ous.

   Talk about how to waste a half hour timeslot. This show sucks.
   
   Obnoxious, draggy and just, DUMNB! I am a lover of great comedy, Scrubs, Everybody Loves Raymond, That 70′s show, and many other classics no longer on tv. To call this one of tv’s best comedies is just wrong. Nothing funny here.

   P.S.

   Where is the 0 stars option? This show has done a good job to deserve it.

   That word? “Dead”

   I skimmed through 60 of the 117 reviews at the time of this writing, including someone that rated 1 star because they received the musical group Arrested Development when they wanted this fox show.

   And I’m really at a loss… how can 116 people be so wrong about a television show? It becomes obvious to me that mass hysteria has an equally disturbing and opposite force, namely amassed brain dead zombies that have this love of dead – deadpan.

   I’ve forced myself through the first four shows, I never laughed, found the entire 3rd person narration to get on my nerves worse than the feelings of wasted time, I see the “highlight” clips that are supposed to entice people to watch the show and even still find myself angered that ANYONE could honestly say they find the show funny.

   You want something funny.. go for Brain Donors, or Family Guy, or even the practicality of the funny shows like, The Simpsons, Malcolm in the Middle, or the outrageousness of Soap, anything but this show… I mean even the Brady Bunch had more punch line than arrested development.

   But obviously, 116 of you would sell your soul for this type of program so have at it. Just stop wasting space on the Amazon servers for your constant dirge of love for the show.. please.. and go write for something better on DVD.. you’ve got skills.. use them for the greater good.. and that’s not Arrested Development!

   If there were a zero star rating Arrested Development should find itself in the slammer with it.

   The first season is pretty good not great but good. The second season is a repeat of the first season, some ole thing.
   
   The third season you can really tell it is going to be ending.
   
   The third season isn’t good at all.
   
   I bought this set because of Jason Bateman, which was so good in it. But the show really wasn’t very good. Same old plots, the grandfather escaping to blame it on the brother etc.
