Are they airing these out of order? Because this ep is #308, the last ep "The Ocean Walker" was #306, and several sources indicate #307 "Making a Stand" doesn't air until 12/19.

**FULL HOUR TONIGHT**
Another episode of AD airs in place of the cancelled KC.

I don't know if it's another new ep or a rerun.

Edited to add: It's a rerun of "Key Decisions" from Season One.

It's really quite sad that they only got to this after Prison Break was done for the fall. It would have been fun to have Prison Break-In on the same night as Prison Break.

The Fox website is saying: "Classic Arrested followed by an all new episode" for tonight.

May want to double-check and make sure the recording device gets the right one. (Or just support AD and record the whole hour!)

Take a look at your season 2 dvd. There's two out of order episodes

106 - Charity Drive - Aired 11/30/03
105 - Visiting Ours - Aired 12/7/03
108 - In God We Trust - Aired 12/14/03
107 - My Mother The Car - Aired 12/21/03

117 - Altar Egos - Aired 3/17/04
118 - Justice is Blind - Aired 3/21/04
116 - Missing Kitty - Aired 3/28/04


They worked fine. Just because the production numbers are in order doesn't mean that they should be viewed in that order. So it should be fine.

I was really hoping that when Michael and Gob were talking about what could go wrong with the jetpack, there'd be a quick cut back to the hilarious Japenese instructional video. Ah well...

There was a throw back to Good Grief with the P 2252.

oh my damn freaking [insert many curse words here].

the Nashville Fox affiliate decided to show some hour-long paid advertisement from 7-8. ARE YOU KIDDING ME????!?!?

ARGH!

did we ever figure out what the P2252 even meant?

Another great episode. However, was it my imagination or were there slight moments of making the show more accessable? f'rinstance, when Michael went back to go talk to "his sister" Lindsay?

"I hope you like chlamydia."

All the moments with the little kids playing out the warden's screenplay were great.

I loved the numerous Godfather-esque musical cues anytime there was a mention of "family." Anyone think we'll see either a paper-mache (sp?) or dead turtle head in someone's bed before the end of the season?

Great episode. The last couple weren't on par with the rest of the show, but even at its worst, this show is still better than anything else out there, and the only reason I still have cable.
