Loved the "Monster" cameo, the tiny Teddie, and the Bumpaddle.

Why am I not going under water?!?

Possibly the greatest ending to any episode of AD ever :lol

It was a decent episode(by AD's standards) until that brilliant final shot.

when they finally revealed last episode that she was actually retarded, it was such a weak payoff. Turned out this whole episode was the payoff, and the jokes were much funnier when we were in on knowing her condition. It was a redeeming episode for Charlize's entire run. Eating the plastic fruit had me rolling.

Michael L<3ve Marry

Favorite throwaway line: Wow, that Blossom grew up, huh?

Snowmaker 12-05-05 09:32 PM

I got a great laugh out of Super Dave firing himself in the mirror. :lol:

And also George Michael knowing all the laws in certain states for marrying one's cousin.

RKillgore 12-05-05 09:44 PM

Another great inside joke. Tony "Buster" Hale originally did the VW Mr. Roboto commercial. :)

Mr. Roboto Commercial

Yeah, I think I just about pissed myself when Super Dave was firing himself. What a pro.

Oh, and George Sr.'s version of Bluthton. :lol:

ChrisKnudsen 12-05-05 10:10 PM

Jesus what a funny episode. The ending is the best ending ever to an Arrested Development.

Actually I think it was...
"Wow, that Blossom blew up, huh?"

I found the fat joke funnier... But if I'm wrong, it's still a good throw away.

I found it a very funny episode. GREAT ending! Loved the Monster cameo. And Super Dave firing himself was gold... And still have no idea why they would cancel it... I know Jack, nobody's watching.

JasonF 12-05-05 10:29 PM

Great episode, as always. Michael getting hit by <s>Mary Poppins</s> Sharri Bobbins was entirely predictable and entirely hilarious.

Does anyone still have this episode on TiVo? I accidentally deleted it, but I meant to go back and see who the advertisers were so I could write them letters to thank them for supporting the show while bragging about my high income and my attractive demographic.

invisiblegt 12-05-05 10:34 PM

I loved the (paraphrased):

"He's going to have sex with her."
"I have a problem with that."

Ron Howard: "So do I!"

I always love it when Howard makes comments about the episode. Like, in regards to Anyyong (spelling?) "Wait for it..."

Phyre 12-05-05 10:50 PM

Man, after seeing the show awkwardly cut around Theron's character so as not to make her retardation too obvious we finally get a totally Rita episode and Theron was fantastic--hilarious and cute to boot. It's a shame she is leaving right when she gets so much comedic freedom from the plot.

MrX 12-05-05 10:52 PM

The scene with Rita and George Michael in the car when he realizes she is retarded was hilarious.

Once again I prepped myself for tonight by watching the last 2 episodes (the special hour last month). I firmly believe that this show is better on 2nd viewing (almost pissed myself again on the jetpack instruction DVD). Tonight was great. I've accepted that the end is near, and am thankful I will always have DVDs of the first 2 seasons (and there better be a 3rd!) to keep me happy.

Fucking brilliant episode, great moments:

"why am I floating on this water!"

Super Dave firing himself.

Busters Roboto dance.

By far the biggest laugh of the episode for me.

JasonF 12-05-05 11:31 PM

"It's not a trick, Michael...."

On the next Arrested Development

"... it's an illusion!"

:lol:

"Just because a woman gets pregnant doesn't mean you have to marry her. Too many lives have been ruined because some cheap waitress at a HoJos said she used an IUD."

"It was Stuckey's."

"But I believed you!"

It wasn't obvious to me.

At least, until RKillgore mentioned it ~10 posts before yours. ;)

Bill Needle 12-06-05 12:27 AM

This episode was brilliant on so many levels. I absolutely loved it. Inside and outside jokes everywhere, and the best last 15 seconds of any show I have seen in a long, long time.

Daniel-A 12-06-05 12:42 AM

It really doesn't matter if we watch or not. There is no way for them to know whether we watch, only those nielsons. That being said I did watch and continue to love this show. Kinda sad to see this hour of good tv get canceled. :(
