I’ve got a lot to celebrate today, PopWatchers. Star Wars Day. A new must-see episode of Lost. And, finally, Will Arnett’s birthday. (What, you think we’d miss it? Only if we took some Forget-Me-Nows.) Yep, Gob Bluth is turning 40, which I think is completely worthy of a “caw-caw-caw!” chicken clap.
Usually, whenever given an occasion to bring up Arrested Development, I’ll find ways to quote the late great show as often as possible. But, hermanos, I want to save that that pleasure for you. So, COME ON! and celebrate Arnett’s 40th by listing your favorite Gob Bluth lines in the comments. Because unlike Lucille, we care for Gob. I’ll start you all off with my personal favorite: “My God, what is this feeling?…it’s not like envy, or even hungry.” It never gets old! Your turn!
P.S. I hope Franklin is invited to his birthday party. And that it involves plenty of corn syrup and red dye.
I don’t get it. Is she funny or something?
Why settle for the best when you can have the rest?
Come on!
Any time he says “C’MON!” I crack up but here’s another good one:
Attention, everyone. Why go to a banana stand, when we can make YOUR banana stand!?
“Look at banner, Michael! Family love you!”
My brother wasn’t optimistic that it could be done but i wasn’t going to take “wasn’t optimistic that it could be done” for an answer.
“It ain’t easy being white!” “It ain’t easy being brown!”
Lucille Two: “Read me the appetizers again”
Gob: “Fried cheese. With club sauce.”
Gob: I’m the pathetic one, Buster, not you. I totally freaked out in front of that prosecutor today. Like a little girl. In a little dress. Little saddle shoes. Little pigtails.
Buster: Wow, that does sound like a little girl.
(I quote that line all the time, also this one…)
Sitwell: The only thing I ask is, out of the 450 homes we build, one be given to a disadvantaged family from the inner city.
Gob: That’s great. So the other 449 families live in fear? Is that what we’re saying?
“The guy in the $4,000 suit is holding the elevator for the guy who doesn’t make that in 3 months. COME ON!”
It’s an ILLUSION Michael, an ILLUSION.
They’re called illusions, Micheal. A trick is something a whore does for money.
That is my FAVORITE! I quote it all the time
Or candy!
I need to get in that Poof
“Taste the happy, Michael”
“It was utterly…macabre.”
“Hair down, glasses off. No, no…glasses on! Glasses on! Did we try hair up?”
Gob: Hey, guy. They tell me you’re the actor who plays Marta’s brother, Tio.
Spanish actor: Como?
Gob: Oh, you’re gonna be in a coma, all right.
Happy Birthday to one of the funniest characters on the funniest tv show ever!!!
