No need to clarify. There were only three seasons of "Arrested Development." And what a treasure those three seasons were!

They’re all great but Jessica Walter was in another league.

how about some love for the performance that was actually 5?

main cast: Jessica Walter guest star: Carl Weathers

Didn’t know this until he passed away recently, but apparently they were just gonna do some goofy ‘Rocky’ thing with Weathers and the idea to make him a weirdo cheapskate was all actually his idea. What a genius.

The late great Gene Parmesan

AAAAAAAH GEEEENE!

they’re so great, I got them all on DVD like an old man

I used to but I left them with my old roommates when I moved in with Maris.

aw heck - but it’s great you rewatched them. I got to rewatch it all again when my kids became teenagers which was a blast

That’s so fun!!

Arnett I think

It's a real achievement, that show.

It is SUCH a good show.

Jessica Walters, imo. Not a bad line read out of her mouth the whole run.

It’s David Cross for me, but I will listen to arguments for any of the main cast and happily plug for Charlze, Henry, and Carls recurring spots

It will always be Jessica Walter for me.
