>>200666571I have to believe the Fox censors just never got the joke in time to veto it. That’s the only reason it slipped into a TV-14 primetime broadcast show.That or Hurwitz put in an even raunchier joke that the censors shot down so that one could sneak through.

>>200665349>The guy in the $600 banana suit! Come on!
>>200666444Checked and kek'd because I remembered the scene. Seconded as well, with my other favourite scene being the one were Gob is driving George Sr. and brings out Franklin; that was the first and last time I saw a zoom in being the punchline.
>>200674417.....BEADS!?
Lucille is the funniest character in the show and I'm tired of pretending she isn't
>>200673043>My name Doctor Tobias Fuenke. I did my thesis at MIT, I was chief resident of psychology at Boston General for two years, and this is I’m A Bad, Bad Man from Annie Get You Gun.
This thread made want to rewatch the show. Should I stop at the third season? I never watched 4.
>>200674804Yes4 and 5 are bad
>>200666738South Park when they kill Kenny lmfao
>>200674380>faggot that likes shit comedy can't understand good comedyNext time ask without posting a picture that outs you as a mouth-breather.>>200674496Her being mean allowed the writers to write some grate stuff. I think my favourite one was the Nelly episode where Michael asks about "her" and Lucille gets giddy and says something like "You call him that too? I'm so glad we can talk like this", and even made me a little sad that Lucille was desperate to connect with one of her children, but nobody was mean enough to qualify lol.
>>200674935Simpsons did it before them with Hans Moleman and Duckman did it even earlier with Fluffy and Uranus.
>>200674804If you do watch it, watch the original version of season 4, and not the recut they put out later. They did it to try and make it flow more like the original show, but at least half of the setup and payoff of jokes in the season comes from you seeing scenes without full context until you follow a different character later on, so a lot more of it just falls flat in the recut.
>>200674804Yes, avoid like the plague.S4 is awful, and while the original version is better than the re-cut, it's still vastly inferior than S1-3. S5 is bad in comparison too, but it has its moments, and I'd argue it's better than S4.

>there’s always money in the banana stand *click*
>>200675096I didn't even know we were calling him 'old bear'!
>>200674953For me it's the simple "I never cared for Gob"
>>200665349Those jokes with the dad's friend who lost his hand and used that to teach the kids a lesson about being safe so you don't lose your hand
>He’s a flamer.

>>200674969
>>200675209It's especially good since it obviously would never work after the first time, so every time a guy's arm flies off, they just realize that they've been got.
>>200672601The best part is when he's accidentally bleached in the washer and now he has a British accent.
>>200675315>and that’s why you don’t teach lessons.
>>200674804S4 is on par with S3. Just make sure like the other anons said that you watch the original cut - on Netflix it's hidden under extras (which also makes it viewable without an account last I checked) - bevause the recut is awful. And skip S5, some of the worst TV I've ever seen.
>>200675209J. Walter WeathermanThe one where they use him to scare Michael and GOB with the painters was hilarious>put him here, by the ottomanalways makes me giggle

>>200675169Mama horny, Michael.>everyone proceeds to talk like this through the serieskek
>>200675634I did not imply such. I gave you additional information should you watch it on Netflix.
>>200675634Don't listen to that guy, S4 is bad. So many of us wish we had heed, but now it's too late. S1-3 is the best comedy series ever made, and clearly will stay that way for decades. Watching S4 will only soil your memory.
>>200675824Some of the best bits are in S4. It's a step down from S1/2, but so was all the MRF plotline in S3.

Cross finally confirmed that Tobias was going to be revealed to be a black albino on a podcast recently. That is the best secret joke of the show, there's multiple lines of dialogue that don't make any sense without knowing that and 99% of the people watching never picked up on it.

I always loved the underplaying of song parodies that they make for the show.

>>200685731>>200685781There's also a great running gag that episode with a dramatic zoom in and a certain music played and it culminates in Carl Weathers dramatically making a face at Tobias when he says he wants his 5000 dollars back because the acting lessons are a sham

>>200687592>Well check this out! $1100 is exactly what I charge for acting classes!
>>200687466Also his first reveal was pretty good but as they go on its obvious he was literally sitting around waiting for his name to be called and by the end his disguise sets off a fire alarm and the Bluths have to pay a fee to the fire department (right after he was playing hardball with info on George Sr. and he sheepishly says "I'm really sorry, he's in Mexico, if you feel that's worth 300 bucks I'd really appreciate it"
>>200687819>Annnnd I skipped breakfast, so I'm off to Burger KingI still say this at work even though I have no plans to go to Burger King
Hey fizellas, looks like you guys are up to no good. Well, this gang used to be like that too THREE FOUR...
>>200687354>people hear Tobias and they think 'big black guy'>well I'm not a big guy. i'm not a Carl Weathers, par example

>>200684756The show is so comedically dense you could watch it like 5 times and STILL not get everything

>>200677598Not really, both of them were old enough to have a firmly established style when the series started.

>>200666738I can't believe no one said Trailer Park Boys. Granted the humor is nowhere near as smart as Arrested Development, but the early seasons had some great jokes and the running gags were thoughtfully tended to. I always got a kick out of the subtle explanation for Ricky and his damn lists being a throwaway joke on the third season or maybe fourth where Bubbles explained that Ricky learned to read from the instruction lists off the back of microwave dinners.
>>200676996>I almost had pop pop in Reno>Yeah, me too
>>200686646Yep, then Tobias's hair catches on fire and he jumps into the pool screaming 'why am i not going under water' kek
>>200686813I too was going to say Police Squad but in AD's defence Police Squad only had six episodes.

>>200679576There is no full version, this is all David Schwartz recorded:>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IoUAAt3ZSAc>>200679596You're not wrong, but AD was lightning in a bottle. The original run excels over every other sitcom too.>>200675847You're out of your mind. The Mr. F stuff stood out in a bad way because it was too ridiculous, but it comes nowhere close to the trash plot lines in S4 that reeked of "How do you do, fellow kids?" like Maharis, Maeby's hideous look and hairstyle, Lindsey the politician, the musical, and other awful narratives like George Michael trying to be smooth, father and son competing for the same women, Tobias' emaciated friends, etc. It was a dumpster fire.S5 tried to salvage what it could, but everything was already ruined, yet it came up with some wonderful moments I won't spoil for the few dumbasses that refuse to avoid S4+5, because they are the few rewards you get for suffering through that crap.

>>200683548They are built on a sound-stage in a studio (which can have several sets). It stays there until the series is completed. When it's done or cancelled, the sets are thrown out, sold, or stored, depending on circumstances. >or is it rebuilt to make space for others between seasonsThat would be extremely impractical, since usually seasons are produced continuously, it's just the production process is not "seen" in the airing.>>200683915Arrested Development has the best used soundtrack I've ever seen in a sitcom, and it's not even close. What they did is SO rare, I've yet to see it again since.
>>200672379This culminating in the "pop secret" gag is so fucking funny

>>200666738I love the first three seasons of AD (I suggested the Mrs Featherbottom fall earlier as the funniest moment - kept rewinding and falling about when I first saw it), and I'd probably rate it as the best sitcom ever... but there are a few bong comedies that do either or both of those things very well. The wordplay in Yes Minister is superb, for instance - though it's unlike AD in almost every other respect (it even has a laugh track). Spaced might come the closest to rivalling it, as it's (still) hilarious, they packed a lot into the show, and there are plenty of running gags ("Hello, Brian..."). But it's still has a very different feel (for one thing, the characters are all somewhat likeable/relatable, whereas that's maybe only true of Michael and George Michael in AD).

>>200690992(To clarify, nearly all British comedies - and 100% of them today - are unfunny shit. As in America. There are just a few exceptions.)
