Michael: Boy, the lengths you'll go to sleep with a woman.
Gob: Believe me, we didn't do any sleeping. I had sex last night.
Narrator: But he really didn't.
Gob: Yes, I did.

He died from watch-in-ass disease

GOB: “It was one night of wild passion.”

MICHAEL: “And yet, you didn’t notice her body?”

GOB: “I like to look at the mirror.”

MICHAEL: “That would be disgusting if you’d actually slept with her, but I don’t think you did.”

GOB: “I Did! And it was disgusting!”

NARRATOR: "They didn’t, but it would’ve been."

Tobias: Well, I am off to buy the perfect present. Maybe she’d like a suit like this.
Narrator: That is her suit.
Tobias: They probably don’t make it in a woman’s though.
Narrator: They only make it in a woman’s.

Narrator: The airport stairway vehicle was the last vestige of the Bluth family wealth. ...Also that House of Pies went out of business.

By the way, does anyone go into laughing fits with their friends just from the stills they use when browsing through episodes on the DVDs?

One of the great subtle jokes in the show is at the end of this episode, when Michael and George Michael are hiding behind the Ten Commandments.

One of the bits that I love, but which doesn't seem to get mentioned much, is right at the end of episode 3.01 when Tobias' Blueman fixation and Barry's desperation come together.

Where did the "O.C (don't call it that)" joke start? I remember the most notable time was:

Tobias: I think he may have developed what we in the soft sciences refer to as Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, or "the O.C. disorder."
Michael: Don't call it that.

I think George Sr. says it too in a different episode, right before the family chicken dance?

In the episode with the Japanese investors, when Bob Loblaw says that someone in the room might be bugged, you can barely see one of the boom mics being lifted out of the way of the camera.

A lot of my favorite moments come from Ron Howard's narration. I would actually count him as one of my favorite characters on the show.
I don't think the show would have been half as good without him. He really brings an amazing extra level to the show.

Ron Howard is a hack director, but he really could have a very promising career as a narrator.

I'm part of an "orphan court" committee at work and they constantly call it the O.C. Committee. My knee jerk reaction every time it comes up is, "Don't call it that"

Freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed.


The one line that still kills me no matter how many times I watch the show is when George is having his little born again moment in the attic, and he says to Michael "you're like those two brothers in the Bible. Gallant and...



Goofuth."



Tambor has the best cadence with those jokes that just trail off, just like when he gets shut into the Aztec Tomb while yelling "Why are you so ANGRY!?" and "I'm on mushrooms! I'm on bad...MUSHROOMS!"

And undeservedly so. He won for A Beautiful Mind, a relatively average and somewhat dull movie that completely omitted major parts of John Nash's life, such as him being gay, racist, and an anti-Semite.

Looking at his IMDB list, it becomes more obvious that rather than being a hack, he is simply hugely overrated.

I loved this joke even before I was told the ACTUAL joke, which I had missed. There's an episode where GOB is rubbing the employee's faces in the cost of his suit, which becomes more expensive as the episode goes on. "Oh sure, the guy in the $200 suit is gonna get his own photocopying! COME ON!" and "Oh sure, the guy in the $275 suit is gonna get potato crumbs on it, COME ONE!" and so forth.

At one point in the episode, Michael and Maeby pop into the office in time to hear "-king $600 suit is gonna do that, COME ON!" Later on, there's a flashback to earlier in the episode, with GOB shouting,"Oh! Oh sure, the guy in the fuh-"

I loved that joke even when I didn't actually here the "Fuh-king" bits.

Which episode is this one from again?
