Arrested Development - 3x08 - "Making a Stand" [NEW US EPISODE]

YeatsCounty

Anyone view this weeks helping of Bluth related goodness? I really enjoyed this episode, the first one I've liked so much in a while (not that I disliked the other Season 3 episodes).

I loved:

The opening scene
The picture montage
Boyfights
G.O.B. and Steve Holt working together
References to G.O.B.'s very short lived singing career ("Franklin' Comes Alive!")
Buster. Any scene he was in was great. I liked his badge.
The return of J. Walter Weatherman
"You don't want a hungry dove down your pants. That's how Tony Wonder lost a nut."
The look on Michael's face after he saw the dove on the table!
"I’ve got this Christian girlfriend now, and she’s trying to get me to be a better man and reconnect with my son. And I’m trying to get her to renounce God and bleep me."
The Bob Loblaw Law Blog
The ending, I believe there were four lessons in there?

I believe that episode 3x09 (which I'm pretty certain is "S.O.B.: Save Our Bluths") will air on January 2nd, but I have no concrete link for that.

Forgot there was a new one this week - along with Family Guy.

Off to me cousins!

I loved the episode. Like every great episode it will take a few watches to get every joke.

My favourite parts

- GOB: "We make a deal with some Mexicans from Columbia
- The photo montages

- The dove in GOB's pants
- Tobias' description of Bob Loblaw (quite a mouthful)

Why did they have to cancel such a fantastic show - all the episodes this season have been hilarious!

Hopefully another network will pick the show up.

"*singing* It ain't easy being white...."

There has been a lot of talk about another network picking it up. Hopefully it happens.

Two-ish words: Bananasuit Jetpack.

Some more words: Bob Loblaws Law Blog, say it 10 times real fast.

Well, the next episode is definately scheduled for Monday the second of January, so we only have a few days to wait for that.

Also, looking at the episode again and reading the message boards on The OP, some interesting theories have come up surrounding the following line from G.O.B.:

"I’ve got this Christian girlfriend now, and she’s trying to get me to be a better man and reconnect with my son. And I’m trying to get her to renounce God and *bleep* me."

Could he mean

Ann, and in George Michael's Ann

by any chance? We will find out. It's highly unlikely, but you never know....
