Wonder how short? But even 6 or 8 would be awesome

Just added another tweet with more details. 9-10 episodes.

1 character per ep? That would be awful...the whole thing of the show is the interaction among the characters.

I assume he meant something other than what he actually said (or was quoted as saying)!

I've reread the quote a couple of times just to make sure they said 'TV' and weren't talking about short webisodes.

"I just blue myself" was one of the comments in the article

The only thing better than an AD movie is a TV season of AD first. If all this news is true, it is a great day!!

Oh, man! What wonderful news!

Was just reading IGN's article on this. They are saying that many cast members are on different shows and could not do an entire season of AD. That is why someone like Will Arnett might only do one episode.

Now I really want Up all Night to be cancelled. Gob needs to be on the entire season.

It's true. We will do 10 episodes and the movie. Probably shoot them all together next summer for a release in early '13. VERY excited!

I don't understand the question and I won't respond to it.

"Certainly, dozens of viewers will be intensely curious."

Just because it's true doesn't mean I hate them any less for saying it.
