Cool. Sounds like a standalone episode.

Geofferson 03-20-05 02:24 PM

Looking forward to tonight! :up:

Another hilarious episode! David Cross acting as a maid was one of the funniest things I've seen in a while, especially considering that every one of his songs ended with "in the most delicious way!"

Anyone notice Maeby's sign?

VOLT FOR HOLT!

Great episode! That was the ditech.com guy in the boadroom, right? (Those commercials are so freakin' annoying)

Loved hearing the organ version of "The Final Countdown." And Buster's reaction when George Michael says "you cut off my hand" on the video.

Fantastic episode tonight. Definitely one of the funnier episodes of the entire series for me.

Loved it. :thumbsup:

Geofferson 03-20-05 10:07 PM

"Looks like we underestimated the religous vote." :lol:

Was this episode supposed to air a while ago and held back? No mention at all of the movie being filmed about the Bluths...

Brain Stew 03-20-05 10:21 PM

-Do you think Steve Holt will crush George Michael?

-It's like comparing an apple and some fruit you've never heard of... :lol:

After the laughlessness that was tonight's Simpsons, this one brought teh funny.

fallfan 03-20-05 10:31 PM

I think Buster getting a hook for a hand has been the greatest thing they've ever done. The line "I don't see why you're surprised, mother. I'm HALF MACHINE!" was priceless.

Samuel 03-20-05 10:34 PM

I no more Dust Buster.

This episode did seem a bit out of place, even from the get go. Some good parts but not nearly as good as the past few ones.

Gallant Pig 03-20-05 11:24 PM

I think the movie bit is done. The hook was there, it fit.

Patman 03-20-05 11:40 PM

Anyone else notice the director's voice was also Ron Howard (when Tobias locks himself in the bathroom)?

MrX 03-21-05 12:00 AM

I thought it was pretty good.

"Steve Holt is a bastard!":lol: Having Gob turn out to be his father after that was a great touch.

MrJeff 03-21-05 12:55 AM

I feel like this season has been a bit sub-par compared to lasts...

I really didn't laugh much until the end of the episode..oh well..looking forward to next weeks!

WhoGirl 03-21-05 01:02 AM

So it turns out that Maeby has had a crush on her cousin the whole time. :lol: Brilliant show. :up:

Totally missed that.

"Your uncle doesn't not work here anymore."
"Mrs. Fingerbottom from Blackstool"
Buster caught with the robot
rotfl rotfl rotfl

"Where did you make that video? In a cave!?" :lol:

The first five minutes of this episode had me laughing more than all of last week's episode. This may be the single best episode of the series thus far.

I loved it when Tobias' nose fell off.

Also: "Why aren't you in school?"
"Marry me! Haha...oh, I forgot who I was talking to."

And you had to love it when Lucille caught Buster with the Roomba, its lights flashed green.

Edit: After the episode ended, I got a call from my mother, who wanted to know if I had just watched Arrested Development. Apparently she never watches it, but caught this episode and could not stop laughing, and just had to call to tell me to see it. :lol:
