i wonder if david faustino misses being a person
gently caress you jason bateman does not deserve work laughing along with funnier people in a mediocre comedy is not the same as doing comedy yourself
that dude actually makes things around him less funny

Arrested Development is not a mediocre comedy.

That's still not a very valid critique. Comedy requires a straight man, it's a fundamental aspect of how multi-person comedy functions. The red face and the blue face. For every Larry and Curly you need a Moe to yell at them for being stupid. It's the person who stands in for the audience. There's a lot of work involved in being a good straight man.

when a person plays a straight man because thats the limit of their abilities it turns out that person isnt actually funny
take that knowledge and try to watch horrible bosses without wanting to kill bateman more than any of the other actors involved

I spent Horrible Bosses laughing my rear end off at Charlie and Sexual Harassment Jennifer Aniston. I had forgotten that Bateman was even in it, actually, so that may make your point.
