Someone just told me that they thought this show was cancelled because it was anti-semitic.

So I was like, huh?

Fonzi hates jews.

Seriously, what was the support for this line of thinking?

I just watched the show where buster got his hand bit off by a seal wearing a bow tie.

Terminally ill cats almost made me pee my pants.

I love that show, I must get the DVD's. Funny that I said it was terrible after watching it a couple times. I am dumb.

You aren't the only one my friend. I watched the first few shows (when it debuted after The Simpsons on Sunday's 4 years ago) and thought it was terrible.

The only reason I gave it a chance was my Blockbuster rental pass and not being able to find anything else to rent.

Now I own all 3 seasons on DVD :thewave:

AD is definately a show that has to grow on you - but once you get it, it is pure gold!

Fnished disk 2 and I just can't stop laughing.

They are so good at things like "This is NOT about my mother. You are meant to REPLACE her."

I love it...this stuff is classic...I would have to say it's maybe above the Office in terms of great writing. It's superb.

It's a shame more people didn't recognize it while it was on. I miss this show. :(

We're almost done with season 2, this show is a riot.

When Tobias was walking around leaving blue paint everywhere, I couldn't help myself from rolling on the floor.

Oh and Gob...

He hangs that picture "Don't be afraid to make mistakes."

He's sitting there with Michael looking at it, it falls, and he's all "I'm not going to beat myself up over that."

:biglaugh:

Baio's characters name is a riot: Bob Loblaw.

...say it out loud...

in the previews, Michael says: "We're not here to talk nonsense with Bob Loblaw..."

That show really tickles my funny bone.

I have to say, this part and the whole Anne story line about no one remembering her are just frigging hilarious.

I just started re-watching these from the start. What a brilliant show.

People are morans for not watching and allowing the show to be cancelled. It's a travesty of Firefly proportions.

I'm adding this to the queue. Everyone here seems to have good taste in tv shows, so I'll give it a try.

Totally agree.
