Even a viewer disinclined to hyperbole or largess would be forced to acknowledge that “Arrested Development” spun hope for the future of television comedy, that it consistently remained, in its three seasons, about 610 times better than “Two and a Half Men,” the most-watched comedy on television, one long, dumb sex joke that charges along, now in its sixth year and destined to be with us for at least three more.
In addition to Mr. Hurwitz the two other chief writers on “Sit Down, Shut Up” are alumni of “Two and a Half Men,” and I question the marriage of sensibilities as I’d question a hookup between a mid-’80s Christopher Guest and a late-career Joan Rivers. You’re curious about the love child, but you don’t necessarily want to adopt him. “Sit Down, Shut Up” uses animated characters against live-action back drops and it feels like the spawn of ambitious satire and cheap tricks, the full spectrum of its genetics all too present.
