So since the last time I was bloggally active, I picked up a couple new beaux. Though I'm about three years late (what else is new) to the greatest thing ever to hit TV, I am no less enamored by the immaculately clever writing, sardonic humor and, well, hot men of the most underappreciated dysfunctional family sitcom, Arrested Development. While I have your attention, please take a moment to sign the e-petition to save the show. You will not get spammed, only an email thanking you for your support.
So back to the beaux. January's crush award gets split between brothers Michael and GOB Bluth, played by Jason Batemen (who I've loved since Silver Spoons...okay, no) and Will Arnett (I hate you Amy Poehler...okay, no). I think Michael's super-responsible control freakism and ballsy brilliance of calling his son George Michael makes me feel like there's someone out there to match my own neurosis -- and there is nothing quite like the appeal of a hot nerd. On the other hand, GOB's clueless self-centeredness, male chauvinism and wild-and-crazy-guy magic that masks his heart of boyish gold appeals to my... Well, there is nothing quite like the appeal of a hot funnyman.
So as I recruit one and all to fight the corporate, ratings-driven, heart and humorless Fox execs and the ignorant, unappreciative, brainless masses of which I was just one of, I also fight to keep alive the two alter-egos of my love fantasy. If the show does indeed get cancelled, I'll take it as a sign. Actually, even if it doesn't, I really need to revisit that wrong-sounding sentiment.
The furrowed brow, the bad magic, the crazy family -- it's like they were created for me.

Those are the perfect pictures for those two freaky hotties.
I think I like Michael/Jason Bateman the best (I did watch him on Silver Spoons. I crushed on him, even though all my friends liked Rick(y) Schroeder.
I love the way the way he is delightfully flawed. He is always trying to do the right thing, but his self-righteousness, ego, emotions, or his bizarro family always seems to screw it up.
If you watch AD with the commentary, the cast is always ribbing him about his hair. It is kind of funky, but it makes him all the more endearing.
SERIOUSLY DUDE. Pure hotness pretty much captures it. I had to fight not to put David Cross on this thing, b/c technically he doesn't qualify as a crush so much as a hero for his brilliant Tobias. I'll never look at cutoffs the same way again.
I never-knew...
