After a break of over a month due to baseball playoffs, Arrested Development returns tonight with back to back episodes! It's felt like it's been ages since I last saw a new episode, so to say I'm excited is an understatement. I was so excited that I read the episode plot summary, which I've posted below. Just read it and tell me that this show isn't brilliant. So funny and well thought out.
In the "Notapusy" episode, Rita (guest star Charlize Theron) calls Michael a word that he thinks means "weak or cowardly" when – in the British sense – it actually means "sweet or gentle." In an effort to prove to Rita he's not one of these, Michael tries to convince George-Michael to join him in some manly activities, but George-Michael is too busy prepping girlfriend Ann for an "Inner-beauty Pageant" at the Church and State Fair. So Michael and his recently-discovered nephew Steve Holt enter a triathlon, only to discover Gob is the one who stumbles at the finish line. Meanwhile, George Sr. tries to get some good P.R. by volunteering to speak at a "Scared Straight" meeting, but ends up giving advice about his prison days to the wrong group. Scott Baio returns as Bluth family attorney Bob Loblaw and Dave Thomas as Trevor.
Something else that happened today is I went out and bought Hillsong United's "Look to You" album. After listening to it in Brett's van on the way home from Booster I decided it's time I bought a Christian album. The only Christian CD I currently own is a Switchfoot one, and it's a burned one that J-Ro made me. I figure it's time for me to spend some time listening to Godly music instead of spending all my time listening to secular stuff. I might also pick up some worship albums sometime, since that's what I enjoy more than the typical contemporary stuff.

Doug,
I love that you're so faithful in writing on your blog! It makes me feel happy that I have someone's blog to blog on.
Ironically..I am watching Arrested Development..and uh..well..I'm glad you like it :)
Look to you is an amazing album..if you ever need help picking out some music..I'm totally up for that!!

Oh..and because I'm watching Arrested Development..you should watch Prision Break (it's awesome)
Arrested Development is much funnier if you see it from the beginning, since all of it's jokes and storylines are intertwined. It's a very difficult show to just jump into. Personally, I thought the mole episode tonight was brilliant. So hilarious. At the part where the japanese guys were looking at the train set and the two "monsters" started fighting on it I was practically rolling off the couch laughing.
And I doubt I'll try watching Prison Break any time soon. I'm really not a TV person. Until I got hooked on AD and Lost over the summer I hadn't watched any TV shows since I was a teen (except for occaisonally watching Everybody Loves Raymond and Amazing Race with my parents). My main problem is I don't like jumping into a show mid-season. I'd have to download the episodes or rent the DVD, and that's too much effort for me, thanks to my laziness. I might download the pilot sometime though.
And help with picking out Christian music would be greatly appreciated. I really need to find some good worship albums.
Oh but Prision break is so amazing..
defintely worth renting the DVDs..PROMISE!
But..you are a guy that seems to like funny shoes..this one's pretty serious..VERY suspensful!
But it's almost over..and I need to go to sleep!
Good night Doug! Hope you have an awesome..very resting night's sleep!
In retrospect, the first episode that they showed wasn't nearly as good as the second. I'd say Mr. F is one of the best episodes I've seen.
Is this arrested development we're talking about or Prision Break?
Arrested Development. Sorry, I should've made it more clear.
Maybe if I was more swift I would have gotten that one lol
