The most well written and funny TV show I have seen. Nothing is even close. What makes it so funny is that you can watch it over and over again and laugh at the same jokes, but for different reasons. There are easter eggs everywhere and running jokes that continues through the whole show.

That is probably also why it was canceled to begin with – you couldn't watch just one episode to understand the humor, but probably the full season before you caught all the jokes.

If you're looking for a show where you don't have to think, Arrested Development probably isn't for you. But if you actually give it a chance, at least 7 or 8 episodes, I almost guarantee you will love it.
