<P> David Bianculli from the New York Daily News stated "If you're not watching this series on Fox, the least you can do is buy it on DVD . You'll love it, and it's such a dense show (in the best sense of the word) that it rewards repeated viewing . Like Scrubs and the British version of The Office, it is the sort of show that truly deserves to be seen uninterrupted, several episodes at a time, for maximum enjoyment . The laughs - per - minute quotient here is insanely high, making it great value as a home library purchase ." </P> <P> Alison Powell of The Guardian said "As Hollywood agents worry about the demise of the town's lowing cash cow, the multi-camera, staged sitcom, here to save the day is Arrested Development, a farce of such blazing wit and originality, that it must surely usher in a new era in comedy ." </P> <P> Gillian Flynn of Entertainment Weekly named Arrested Development the best television show of 2005 and said in her review that "As oddball as Arrested is, it's also humane . A flawless cast--from Will Arnett's breathy, bombastic Gob to Jessica Walter's boozy Lucille--grounds it, aided by Ron Howard's affable narration . Of course, the center of sensibility is good son Michael (Jason Bateman) and his even better son, George Michael (Michael Cera). Bateman and Cera give the best reacts around--the former all weary exasperation, the latter adorably bunny - stunned . Together, they're the sweetest, awkwardest straight men on the smartest, most shockingly funny series on TV...which is likely canceled, despite six Emmy wins . It's a perversion not even the Bluths deserve ." In 2012, Entertainment Weekly listed the show at No. 2 in the "25 Best Cult TV Shows from the Past 25 Years", praising its "fast, delirious, interlocking jokes that don't pander to the masses; winky gags (e.g. fake preview scenes for the following week's episode); and a cast of absurd characters". </P> <P> In 2004, the first season received seven Emmy Award nominations with five wins . It won for Outstanding Comedy Series, Outstanding Directing for a Comedy Series, Outstanding Casting for a Comedy Series, Outstanding Single - Camera Picture Editing for a Comedy Series and Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series, for the pilot episode written by Mitchell Hurwitz and directed by brothers Anthony and Joe Russo . Jeffrey Tambor was nominated that year for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series . </P>
