Arrested Development Season 2 Thread

I didn’t have a camera. i was going to run up the stairs and have my boyfriend take a picture, but i didn’t think i could make it home and grab one in time…

they film the scenes with Gob on the Segueway in Culver City. my friend was driving past once when he saw it being filmed and almost rear-ended the car in front of him when he realized who it was.

Anyone else catch that quick Thomas Jane cameo as the homeless guy?

Sure did, great episode tonight! Great to see return of the Cornballer (and its ramifications.) What a great show.

Great episode tonight. Too many hilarious moments:

The blue dot
“I just want my kids back”
The Buster Keaton homage
Diamond Cream
George Michael’s girlfriend
“Solid as a Rock”
and of course…“The Cornballer”

and of course…“..rock always beats scissors”

I liked the continuing Gob and Bush comparison. When they unveiled the “Mission Accomplished” sign it was fucking histerical.

Classic episode. I loved the whole plot of Tobias following his wife around, great stuff there!

Also, I thought I recognized the homeless guy but couldn’t put a name to his face. What I find odd is this isn’t the first time I’ve heard him called Tom Jane now. Is he now going by that instead of Thomas Jane (which I think is better)? Either way, it’s always nice to see the male stripper/vigilante get some work.

“You lied to me! I’m going to war!”

Awesome episode.

“And get rid of the Sea Word.” – Michael to GOB.
“I will leave when I’m good and ready.” – Lucille.

I watched this show for the first time last night. It was awesome.

George Michael: “…she calls it a ‘mayonegg’. Are you ok?”

Michael: “I don’t feel so good.”

Was there an explanation for the finger-shaped bruises on the underside of the spokes-model’s arm?

Another great episode.

“I heard zoo noises.”

No sophomore slump for this one.

I was probably laughing so hard, I missed that.

Thank you!!!

my god…what a ingenious episode. I loved every minute of it. Tobias following his wife was just downright hilarious. I laughed out loud so many times watching this show.

Easily the funniest show on tv.

The one thing that got me was GOB saying, 2 months!..we are going to do it in…2 WEEKS!!! (a shower of pennies appears on the conference table).

Quick everyone! Favorite Characters?

Tobias is easily my favorite character. He’s so over the top in his mannerisms yet you have no idea what drives him. Is it the desire to stay in the closet? Is he even in the closet? What closet is that anyway? You just don’t know. David Cross has a new fan and I’m going to have to check out this “Mr. Show” everyone’s been talking about.

Plus, Last season’s mention of his Never-Nude phobia- along with Gob’s Mr. Bananagrabber- is possibly one of the funniest TV revelations since “Cosmo” Kramer.

GOB = BEST SITCOM CHARACTER SINCE KRAMER

If my dreams come true, GOB will be as recognizable as Kramer is when Arrested Development finally goes off the air (in 6-7 years i hope).

I am no David Cross fan at all, but I FUCKING LOVE TOBIAS. Hilarious stuff. I think its easily the best work he has ever done. I always found Mr. Show to be too wishy washy and silly for the sake of silly. As Tobias, Cross is definitely doing better comedy.

When Buster said that, I was laughing so hard that i actually started cramping up.

I was wondering about that myself. It was way too obvious not to notice.

I’m equally torn between Buster, Gob and Tobias. When Buster wears clothes that helps him blend in with the wallpaper at his mom’s house - absolutely hilarious.

In such a stellar cast, it’s hard to pick a favourite. For me it’s Arnett as GOB. Some of his stuff is so subtle, like every time he tries to use the phone in the Bluth offices (asking Michael how to intercom; hanging up on George, Sr. by mistake). Kills me.
