or not.
i have to say, the episode entitled "Mr. F" in season 3 of Arrested Development (nicknamed "AD" in our household)is one of the most brilliant moments in t.v. and comedy. it had me literally holding my sides with laughter, not just on the first watching, but on the second as well (and alcohol was only involved in one of the viewings). i admit when i started watching the season i was a little dissappointed - it was slow to get off the ground. but i remember now that's the genius of the show. it takes a while to set itself up and then *kaching*! it cashes in all the jokes. Mr F was one of those payoff episodes. theres so much double meaning and so many puns that aren't cliche, but are so artfully executed. the whole bit with the japanese business men and tiny town was just pure gold (this part, of course, is why i loved the episode so much).
that's all. too bad it's canceled. sigh. well, genius is frequently misudnerstood in its time!
