Write a Recap »Best part of this show.. hide show
Who would have thought that analyis and therapist would have been put together to make "analrapist". I thought this series definately made the highlight of the whole show. All 3 seasons are funny, but this one definately took the cake for this. It's just so wrong to look at his business card. Tobias Funke (Funky) Analrapist. Found a shirt online that had the business card, but had a few people who had never seen Arrested Development before and they just give me funny looks :D Actually, I'm going to go rewatch this episode right now, just to watch that scene.
soooo funny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hide show
this one is soo funny bob lob law (bob-bla-bla) well his name is funny anyway.and tobis and gob r oo funny atually everyone is fnny on the show thats why i like it so much not only one person is funny everyone is!!! and rita is crazy was is with her!!!!!!!!!!!!! they sould really come back with the show same writers and cast please!!!!!! fox thats your only goood show and you took it off!!! yo really messed up now abc is on top!
It seems to me that any self-respecting psychiatrist wouldn't have taken quite so long to get to work on little Buster, but it seems the good Dr. Funke is quite as up on things as most, so it is only now that he gets around to "analraping" the youngest of the Bluth siblings. Standing up to Lucille is a good start; once he's tackled that he can work on functioning in any sort of social setting and not being mentally handicapped. Those might take a little longer.
It's nice to see that Michael can keep a girlfriend longer than one episode, particularly when that someone is as lovely as Charlize Theron. I see this relationship going somewhere wonderful, if his family doesn't overdose her on rufies first.
And kudos to whoever thought of having George Sr. communicate via surrogate, and a big hand for casting Bob Einstein in role. It is yet another instance of Arrested Development demonstrating its complete mastery of comic timing.
Bonus: the American-themed British restaurant? Genius.
There may be reason behind not introducing Rita to the Bluths hide show
The best of season three so far, Forget Me Now has Michael’s brilliant plan of stating that he doesn’t have a family, though Rita knows this to be false, though still doesn’t remember after meeting the family since she was drugged and beaten by the Bluths, a fact that surprisingly didn’t go down well with Michael.
Michael actually explaining the title of the show was a very funny moment, especially when the Narrator makes it more obvious by saying “That’s the name of the show!”
The “Next time” scene was classic, Gob simply saying “I will” and making it incredibly funny, making it a great end to a hilarious episode.
God bless this show, it's even funnier now than it ever was before. hide show
This has to be a candidate for the best episode of Arrested Development EVER. The entire cast is so damn good, but if I had to pick a favorite, it'd be Will "Gob" Arnett. His work in this episode may represent a series high, from his leering delivery of "We're nice!" to his final scene, as he drugs himself with a Forget-Me-Now so that he won't remember his Very Special Father/Son Moment with Steve Holt (STEVE HOLT!). Simply put, this is easily the funniest show on TV.
