The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret

By now you know well that A is for Arrested Development, but soon you might be able to say I for The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret. Or maybe it will be P or M or something. Its a long title.
The reason I bring this all up is because AD alums (and GOB Industries founders) David Cross and WIll Arnett are at the heart of this new sitcom for Channel 4. Yes thats the BBC. The other actor in the above shot is Spike Jonze, noted for directing Where The Wild Things Are and dressing up like an old man on Jackass.
David Cross’ character Todd Margaret is sent to the UK by his company, which sells energy drinks trying to expand their market. He is mistaken by his boss as someone far more capable and confident than he actually is. Hilarity ensues.
You can catch the pilot here, as some helpful chap(I talk like England too!) has uploaded the whole thing. Keep in mind you can swear on TV there, because there is a lot of swearing.
