It's Arrested Development

(on Lemmy)

An attempt to bring the fun of /r/arresteddevelopment over to Lemmy

I've always though "Cocaine" was the better line, since it does absolutely nothing to rectify what the kids just heard - if anything, it makes it worse :-)

Yeah, that was... Like 90% of the joke. I literally turned the TV off due to overwhelming sad when I heard the new version.

I thought this was the only difference, turns out the original pilot was recut... I like the recut version better, aside from this line.

I prefer the original, simply because it's longer so there's a bit more AD - I can't recall off the top of my head what all the differences are, but I think there's a couple of good jokes that got cut. Recut version is tighter though.
