    Oh.
    My.
    Gawd.

    This is the funniest show I think I've ever seen.
    I can't put it into words, you'd have to watch it.

    All of the characters have hillarious quirks, and damnit, there's way too much incest in the show xDD

    And then theres a little korean named Annyong who is just so... EEE! -wibbles-

    Here's a small clip from IGN.

    This show is awesome, i'm still angry that FOX canceled it.

    They've made a huge mistake.

    I know... I just don't get it.

    I guess there just arent enough people in the world who can see how good it really is, and ratings suffered because of the idiocy of us all.

    The lady who was crying looked a lot like a nun that visits my school every Thursday to bribe poor kids into taking her chocolates, when in the next day they vomit it all out.

    The Programme is uber awesome though!

    Lol I know.
    Annyong is one of the best running gags ever.

    And then there's Bob Loblaw... and his Law blog XDDD
    That was seriously a good one.

    And how Buster got his hand bit off by a "Loose Seal" and his mothers name is Lucille xDD The C word, lol.

    Anyways, from what I hear a movie is in production, so this'll be interesting.

    Them saying a movie is in production is like saying that Starcraft Ghost will still be coming out for the Gamecube. Allthough i'd greatly like to see the show return or a movie, i doubt either will happen, but will be just as happy if both occur.

    This threads deserves a bump.

    I've recently got into the show, and I absolutely love it. I came across it randomly when watching TV at 11:30pm and I bought the 3 boxsets ASAP. It's a shame the show suffered from poor marketing, you would think that FOX would advert an emmy award winning show more, they cut dow Season 2 by 4 episodes just for the revival of Family Guy, and showed the last 4 episodes during the Winter Olympics opening...come on! But I love how they made references to this throughout Season 2 and 3, like for instance the episode where they were told they had to build 18 houses and not 22. Brilliant. XD Marketing in the UK is no-existant, first of all they give it a nighttime showing at midnight, but don't advert the show at all. No wonder I have never heard of it until now.

    What I love about the show are the characters, and cleverly plotted jokes, which requires you to watch it again in order to get the joke, like how the made sutle references to Buster losing his arm all over Season 2, and you won't get them until you watch them again. Not many shows are as clever as this.

    You got to love Topias, the worlds first analyist and therapist...an analrapist. XD And also him as Mrs Featherbottom...classic.

    As for a movie, that is coming, a script in in the works, and is due for release next year. I'm not bothered if the series appears again or not. It had a great run, I would rather see it end on a high then like most american programmes carry on until run dry and end with a bitter taste. I think a movie is a good thing to do, it gives them more time to develop it perfectly, instead of giving random ideas. It's just a shame that Season 3 felt too rushed as the season was cut in 2, they had to conclude the court case in 13 episodes which didn't allow time to develop characters more. Like in Season 2.
