Arrested Development - The Movie?

Arrested Development (2009)

When i saw this, I nearly "blue" myself.....

The best TV show ever. Rumors of a movie have floated here and there, this is the closest to a confirmation I have stumbled across....

who else is excited?

Clerk: Do you want a cage for that?
G.O.B.: No, I'm a magician.
[G.O.B. runs into the door, and the dove stops cooing.]
G.O.B.: What is your return policy, by the way?

Michael: So, this is a magic trick, huh?
G.O.B.: "Illusion," Michael. A "trick" is something a whore does for money... or candy!

Steve Holt: I've made a huge mistake.
Gob: I know the feeling. I had you. I'm your father, Steve Holt. I can't hide from it any more.
Steve Holt: I won't forget this... Dad.

Some of the best TV ever


________

Afternoon Delight" is the 28th episode aired of TV comedy series Arrested Development. It was the only episode directed by Jason Bateman.

*****

As Michael and Maeby entertain themselves by sticking candy to the back of G.O.B.'s suit, Lindsay finds the party less enjoyable. Because of her brother's harsh warning to the employees, no one will flirt with her. George Michael shows up after a creepy experience with Ann's religious family. As George Michael and Lindsay watch Michael and Maeby perform karaoke together on stage, they feel abandoned, and both leave the party. They are not around to discover (as Michael and Maeby did), that the song "Afternoon Delight" isn't as innocent as the melody suggests. Michael cuts the song short and exits the stage, heading for G.O.B., who is eager to hear an employee roast him. He calls up a worker, Tom, but G.O.B. doesn't like what he hears. When he finds the entire staff is laughing at him, he fires them all. Michael and G.O.B. decide to throw a new party and to return to their old way of doing things (Michael handling the business and G.O.B. being the fun party guy). Meanwhile, Tobias' visit to Lucille's did not go well, as she became afraid at the sight of a man covered in blue paint and blew an air horn into his ear. Michael retrieves Oscar and asks him to give her some "Afternoon Delight" to relieve her stress. Oscar mistakenly believes that Michael is referring to a particular kind of marijuana ("Afternoone Deelite") and tells Michael that he'll put it in her brownie.

This was one of those shows that I always meant to start watching but never did. Then when I found out about hulu.com, I saw Arrested Development on there and decided to start watching. I've watched about 11 episodes so far, and I'm so glad I started watching.

Seinfeld was kind of a fringe show (or at least more of a cult following than mainstream) it's first couple of seasons when it was on Wednesdays, opposite Home Improvement. Cheers ended, Seinfeld took it's 9 p.m. Thursday slot, and it became a cultural icon.

Having said that, if it did get more exposure, I don't know if enough people would "get it" to make it a huge hit. The funniest parts were usually the most subtle.

George Sr.: I haven't had a vacation in years. This is my vacation. I'm exercising, I'm sleeping well.

Gob: So, did you see the new Poof?

Michael: [quickly shutting the door] His name’s Gary. And we don’t need any more lawsuits, okay?

Gob: No, I was talking about the magazine... Wait. Gary's gay? Uh-oh. He's gonna think I was coming on to him..

[flashback to earlier that day]

Gob: [to Gary] You've got a nice mouth.




Michael: I think she needs some "Afternoon Delight". [Oscar Laughs]
Narrator: Oscar thought Michael was referring to a particular kind of cannabis, called "Afternoon Delight".
Oscar: Well, sure. The question is, which way do I try to get it in her?
Michael: I don't need any details.
Oscar: Maybe...I'll put it in her brownie.
Michael: Hey!

I keep hoping Arrested Development goes the way of Family Guy; has massive DVD sales and gets back on TV. Regardless, a movie would be sweet too.

Michael: You know, GOB, you might want to start acting like the President. You're beginning to alienate some of the employees.
Gob: Yeah, like the CEO has to worry about alienating the employees.
Narrator: In fact, GOB *had* started to alienate some of the employees.
Gob: [in the break room] The worst that could happen is that I could spill coffee all over this $3,000 suit. Come on.
[in the elevator]
Gob: Yeah, the guy wearing the $4,000 suit is holding the elevator for the guy who doesn't make that in four months. Come on.
[in the bathroom]
Gob: Yeah, like I'm going to take a whiz through this $5,000 suit. Come on.
