    If the show hadn't gotten cancelled?

    First off, I REALLY think that Kitty would have returned with her little Bluth in tow :] Of course, she would become much more involved with the storyline, and also, of course, the baby would have some sort of horrible (and horrible as in funny) running gag associated with it.

    And speaking of babies, I think Maggie would have deserved a return. In fact, when it came to Michael's women, I think Maggie would've been the best. I can really picture her coming back with these new hilariously complex plotlines, and finally staying for keeps. She definetely was the best woman for Michael, I think, because she was interesting and attractive as well as damned funny.

    Hmm... those are the only two I can really think of right now. Any other ideas?

    We are no where near the genius of the writers of this show...so I almost don't even want to try to come up with plot lines out of respect to those brilliant men and women. And I would butcher the show and characters if I even tried

    True, but if we're being silly, then I'd like to see AD make fun of a new FOX reality TV show where they are looking for the most realistic Chicken Dance. They could make it like the "Gong Show" and each family member would get their turn.

    That would be funny, but I don't know how long it'd last - I would think it would get old after a few episodes.

    I still would like to see Buster, Tobias, GM and Michael do a chicken dance - that'd be so hilarious!

    I never make educated guesses with shows that have (or had) phenomenal writers like AD. They never do the expected and that's what makes them great.

    Lindsay and Michael get married.

    Buster becomes President of the Bluth company and all of the company's problems are solved immediately. Gotta hand it to him.

    Maeybe gets George Michael a part in a movie she was working on called "Superbad" and everyone is surprised when he becomes a star.

    Gob appears on the cover of Poof magazine (not the magic one, he comes out of the closet).

    Franklin comes alive (literally this time).

    George Sr. realizes he has innappropriate feelings for his brother Oscar, prompting him to take him to a film, "Les frères Dangereux."

    Tobias crusades against gay marriage waving a sign that reads, "The Man Inside Me Doesn't Approve Homosexuality."

    Kitty says goodbye to these after a tragic breast reduction surgery.

    When Maggie Lizer tells Michael she's really pregnant with his child this time, the guy with one arm steps out and says, "and that's why you always wear a condom."

    Those were hilarious! Except Buster was already "President" - remember, "You guys are so smart." - as he sinks down in his chair

    George Michael and Maeby start sneeking around behind the family's back.

    Lindsay gets arrested because a cop mistook her for a prostitute.

    After getting dumped by Gob, Ann hooks up with Steve Holt to get back at him.

    The family goes to therapy and the therapist suggests that Tobias is a closet homosexual, which Tobias dismisses as ridiculous, that Buster has a mother complex, Lucille drinks because she's unhappy, and that Michael and Gob have unresolved sexual feelings towards each other, among many other things.

    Michael and Gob act on those unresolved feelings.

    Maggie Lizer returns with her baby and she resolves to ruin Michael by revealing his affair with Gob to the public and starts following them around, and during a court hearing she says "Michael Bluth will do anything for his family, and I have proof. He's sleeping with his brother" and she takes out a bunch of pictures of Michael and Gob in compromising positions, but Gob's face isn't seen in any of the pictures for whatever reason, so people just think Michael's gay now. Then Gob blows it by saying "That's me. I (bleep)ed my brother!"

    Gob and Michael get married inspite of the family's objections.

    That's my idea of what would've happened. Bite me.

    Oh yea, the one who thinks Gob and Michael are hot for each other

    There is no way that Michael feels anything for Gob, as for the opposite - I can't say for sure. The whole "If you feel anything move down there, it's just my bird" line is kinda wierd.

    I think that Annyoung would be a big part after Lucille stoel from his father, I can't picture where the series would have gone after the finale. I would have liked to see Lucille Austero return for Buster, but be grossed out by his hook. George Michael meet a girl, that is not so Bland, Steve Holt and Maebe to explore the whole cousins in love scenario for awhile, even though they are not really cousins.

    I also always wanted Marion Ross to come on the show, she was hilarious on That 70's Show, and Gilmore Girls, and Brothers and Sisters, if they could bring her in somehow that would be great.

    Who was Marion Ross in GG?

    I always pictured Ann's camel from the beauty pagent somehow becoming the Bluth company mascot. This would be very interesting, IMO.

    First of all, I don't **** care. Second of all, I try (key word being try) not to criticize people for liking Michael with Lindsay, or any other woman, together, so maybe you should shut your mouth.

    It is weird, but I assumed that he was talking about an actual bird, like a dove. Michael wasn't sure which way to take it, though. Sort of an unintentional double entendre.

    And emoangel, no need to get defensive or hostile. We're all friendly here.

    It is funny how everyone is fine with Tobias being gay and George Michael and Maeby diving in headfirst into second base, but when you put homosexuality and incest together, most of us are a bit uncomfotable...

    Ha...

    Chill out - did you see the smile at the end of my first sentence. What's your problem? I simply have a difference of opinion and stated it. If you can't take it, that's your problem. No need to insult me.
