I'm back from a nearly month-long hiatus (January was cuh-raaaazy!). I've been delayed in getting a post up all week, preoccupied with the lead-up to tonite's two hour
Arrested Development finale, which begins shortly on
Fox (7pm CT). I've been re-watching the
first two seasons all week, and I've been replaying the first nine episodes of season three throughout today.
As the
final countdown to what will most likely be the final episodes of TV's best comedy, my emotions are mixed. I'm still holding out hope that the show might
be saved, but I know that the odds are not in our favor. To commemorate the occasion, I'm going to attempt to "live blog" the final four episodes on this post, though I'm not sure how it will go & what there will be for me to comment on, but I'm giving it a go nonetheless.
BTW: If you watch the
undoubtably yawn-inducing
opening ceremonies of the Olympics on
NBC tonite, the terrorists win.
