Okay, since we’ll never get another episode of ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT…I suggest that Mitchell Hurwitz should hit us up with a spin-off.
Anyone remember the Bill Bixby show from the early 70s called THE MAGICIAN?
Magic, bitches!
It was about a playboy magician that solved crimes…with magic! Pretty rad, right?
A trick is something a whore does for money...
Imagine the hilarity…all the old gang could make cameos…The whole Bluth clan and especially The Hot Cops, Mr. Bananagrabber, and the lovable African-American puppet, Franklin!
I know, I know….I’m practically a fucking genius here….still not sold?
Okay, watch this old intro to THE MAGICIAN but imagine GOB as the titular character instead of Bill Bixby…
See what I’m sayin’? I’ll call Hollywood.

Great idea. For real.
That way Will Arnett can stop playing variations of Gob in everysinglefuckingrole that he takes and simply reprise his one sucess.
Can’t wait for the Arrested Development movie! (I can wait, it’s just an expression. fuck.)

If only the show could have pulled a good concept out of it’s hat.
Well, they could have saved the show if he sawed the very annoying Brandon Cruz in half. Yeeeccch!
Actually, I think one of the worst concept shows i’ve caught a glimpse of was the recent “Blind Justice”.
A blind guy who can STILL solve crimes after his accident.
If the series ended with the pilot having the bad guy trick him to come up on a 30 story construction site, and have him fall to his death… then you’d have something.

I watched The Magician and Blacke’s Magic.
