We knew that several reports over the last few months have confirmed the wonderful news that Arrested Development was not only coming back, they were coming back to film 13 episodes that would be streamed on Netflix in 2013, and those episodes would lead into a full-length movie. We knew that Ron Howard had an actual, written script. And we also had set photos. But now, courtesy of Entertainment Weekly, we have the entire cast reunited. Several photos of the whole ensemble, both in and out of silly costumes, will appear in the reunion-centric issue hitting stands this week.

Wait a second -- 13 episodes in 2013, quite possibly in April, the month of April Fool's... What if they're still messing with us??? Sorry, my tinfoil hat was a little snug for a second there.

    I’m so conflicted—it’s hard to imagine they’ll be able to recapture the magic of the original run. Does teenage sexual angst still seem as funny when that teenager is in the latter half of his 20s?

       With the whole gang back together I’m betting that they will recapture the magic.

        I sure hope so… but they said the same thing about Ghostbusters II.

          The problem with G2 was that they made it all about the baby/mommy connection. And cast Peter MacNicol.

            “The” problem?

            I still say it’s a damned fun film.

    You know, tinfoil hats only amplify the mind control waves, so may they really _are_ messing with you.
