My tribute to Arrested Development

[amazon-product]B000EXDS7K[/amazon-product]So the best comedy on TV just got canceled. I’m talking about Arrested Development, a throughly intelligent and clever comedy. It also happens to be incredibly dirty, self-referential, and quite possibly characters that are too out there for some people, but all of it make it just incredibly funny.


Quotes throughout Season 3 (taken from The OP Quotes Page)

Lucille: Well, apparently, mood-altering medication leads to street drugs. That’s what this very handsome, young doctor said on The Today Show.
Michael: That was Tom Cruise, the actor.
Lucille: They said he was some kind of scientist.

G.O.B.: So you came back here to hide like a child.
Michael: What are you doing locked in my office, exactly?
G.O.B.: Hiding from a child. Big difference.

Lindsay: How do you think I feel? Bob Loblaw’s a handsome, professional man and I’m only used to… well, none of those things.
Tobias: Okay, Lindsay, are you forgetting that I was a professional twice over— an analyst and a therapist. The world’s first analrapist.

Tobias: Oh, good. Have sex with this girl right now. Do it, go. Get in there. Have some sex with her right now. I didn’t think so. Ann, you need to decide whether you want a man or a boy. I know how I’d answer.

Steve Holt [cheering on Michael]: Don’t ask “can I?” Ask “I can!” …You can control your bladder when you’re dead… No blood, no oil! There’s no “I” in “win.”

Tobias: I’m afraid I’m with Michael on this. The guy runs a prison, he can have any piece of ass he wants.

Bob Loblaw [note: say that name out loud]: Actually, I was going to stay in my office tonight and work on my law blog.
Tobias: Of course— the “Bob Loblaw Law Blog.” Wow. You, sir, are a mouthful!

G.O.B.: If you didn’t have adult onset diabetes, I wouldn’t mind giving you a little sugar.
Mrs. Van Skoyk: Oh, G.O.B… you could charm the black off a telegram boy.

Lucille: Your father says he wants me to go all the way to Falluja. I thought he meant the sex act that’s so popular with your generation.

Michael: That’s a nice try, Pop, but in your old computer, I found a Nellie. You’re trying to tell me that is not my sister?
George, Sr.: Yes. It’s perfectly innocent. She’s my prostitute.

Michael: We’ve got bigger problems. G.O.B. is locked in a prison in Iraq.
Buster: What?
George Michael: So he’s actually in an Iraqi prison?
Michael: No, no, it’s U.S.-run. God knows what they’re doing to him.

Tobias: Although, perhaps I should call the “Hot Cops” and tell them to come up with something more nautically themed. Hot Sailors. Better yet, Hot Seam…
Michael: I like Hot Sailors.
Tobias: Hmm. Me, too.
