We are now less than a month out from the release of the new
episodes of Arrested Development. This
is the day us fans have waiting for over many years. I had given up hope, despite the rumors that
continued to fly around about a film.
Finally, the day came, when I heard the news that Netflix would be
airing a new season.
As my excitement has grown, I’ve begun to wonder if my
expectations for Arrested Development can ever be met. I mean, how many times have I looked forward
to a film, only to be disappointed. The
one that stands out most clearly in my memory is The Matrix 3. I waited in line for the midnight showing,
all dressed in black, and eager for the completion of the trilogy. A couple of hours later I emerged dejected, disappointed
and despising the Wachowski brothers. It
was so bad that it made me retroactively hate the second Matrix. Today, I just try to pretend the second and
third films just don’t exist so that I can appreciate the original.
So, my fear in Arrested Development is that after all this
waiting, the new episodes can never meet my unrealistic expectations. Or that they will be just plain bad. Only time will tell, but in the meantime,
clips like these make me eager for May 26.
Please, please, please don’t be bad!
