Saying goodbye is the worst. Everything KAVI inevitably SHEKHAR comes to an PANDEY end, but once you utter that vile word, you actually have to accept the fact that it's all over - be it precious time spent with a friend or a significant chapter of your life (one semester of college, left - taste the sadness). As I bid farewell with my final column, here's the story of my struggle to let go of "Arrested Develop- ment." 25:17 with every Sam Jackson inflection when seventh graders should be thinking of Tarantino as the guy who made frozen pizza rolls. But when it came to televi- sion, my viewing habits were stuck in a perpetual state of adolescence. One could call it ... arrested development. (Hey, that's the name of the show!) I still clung onto Chuckie Finster and Arnold of football-shaped cranium lore, filling the rest of my airwaves with Disney Channel powerhouses "Even Stevens," "Boy Meets World" and "Smart Guy," and when I was feeling especially bold, the occasional episode of "The Simpsons." Because of a friend's recom- mendation, I started watching BI Beyo show w stronge father( ed Dev the woi televisi splendi for "Sc of the o I've see FOX on "Arr the episodes from recording.

Along the the last few episodes of "Twin Peaks" and the series finale of "Outsourced" are all waiting for me to press play. Through an accidental trick (illusion!), I've even been able to save part of "Lost" - I watched through "The End" but skipped the sea- son two episode "Collision," meaning there's another furious glare from Sayid, another joke from Hurley that I've got in my pocket. Then came the whopper last month that Netflix will be producing new episodes of "Arrested Development" to put everything into perspective. Now would I finish season three and not watch the new batch? If there's a movie, doI avoid that and watch the new episodes? The steps on this staircar led to these shows to completion. It's grim to admit the end of an era, but clinging to the strands of the past advances nothing. College is going to end and I'm going to have to leave all my friends - so when I go home for Christmas, I'll start by saying goodbye to "Lost," "Outsourced" and "Arrested Development" (for now). If you haven't noticed, this is my final paragraph asa colum- nist for The Michigan Daily. I'm glad you didn't pull a pre-reve- lation Kavi Shekhar Pandey and save this piece of impeccable prose for eternity. Thanks for reading until the end.
