arrested no more
Over the past 15 years, my three favorite TV shows were, in order, Larry Sanders, Arrested Development, and 30 Rock. I tend to think of 30 Rock as being the latest in a fraternity of equals...until I re-watch episodes of its brilliant predecessors.
No.
30 Rock is good, not great. I especially love, even identify with, the exasperated interplay between mentor Alec Baldwin and protege Tina Fey. His perpetual disappointment in her, her unblinking disregard for that disappointment...it's all too familiar to this mentor and protege.
But the big news this week is that one of the great, not good, ones is finally coming back: the Arrested Development movie is a go!
