Funniest Moment in Television History?

Ah, yes. Arrested Development is pure brilliance.

I believe Arrested Development will do a "Family Guy" take a 2 to 3 year hiatus and appear again on a cable network FX, HBO, Showtime ect....

That would be incredibly amazing. Unfortunately, creator Mitchell Hurwitz says he won't reprise the show. That doesn't mean he won't change his mind, but unfortunately it looks like Arrested Development is done for good.

I thought the episode with GOB in the banana suit had funnier moments.

I disagree, the funniest moment is definately this:

I dont get why Fox canceled good shows like AD and Firefly but let crap like Til Death war at home and The Winner still air?

I'd have to disagree. For me the funniest moment would be:

It's mind-boggling. I would have to venture a guess that it's a combination of Fox's incompetency when it comes to advertising their good shows (AD barely got any good ad time), moving AD around in the schedule, and the fact that most of the viewing public just isn't smart enough to enjoy a character-driven comedy with no laugh track and a complex storyline.

After all, there has to be a reason that CBS is the number one network for comedy.

That's got nothing on WKRP's turkey drop.

And the best show the pinheads at Fox ever canceled was Brimstone. That still pisses me off. They didn't even air enough episodes to rate a DVD collection.
