Top 10 Arrested Development Running Gags


I’ll let Bo you take this home threw it
in a pot add some broth of potato did
you cut ass to go now the story of our
favorite moments and the one video that
had no choice but to keep them all
together
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’ll
be counting down our picks for the top
10 Arrested Development running gags
number 10 li kui’s and Joshua Michael
remembered very well in fact he
currently had a copy of the DVD hidden
in his sock drawer kind of after a
longtime crush on his cousin maybe
George Michael gets his first glimmer of
hope that they really could pursue an
illicit relationship it was a love
between two cousins that the world
thought was wrong but it was the world
giving him a lasting reverence of the
French like the ways I think number 9 do
you believe in magic
you want a case for that now I’m a
magician what is your return policy by
the way as a magician job is always
attempting various spectacular tricks or
rather illusions whether it’s a grand
scheme to make a yacht disappear or an
attempt to be buried alive
poor job never seems to catch a break or
remember which arm has the pennies and
which arm has the lighter fluid but
still the lighter fluid come from number
8 peanuts droppings of the many
pop-culture references scattered through
this series it’s the repeated use of
Vince Guaraldi’s christmas time is here
from a Charlie Brown Christmas that is
our favorite George Michael meanwhile
had just been broken up with by his
first girlfriend and was on his way home
ironically the insertion of these
cartoon inspired moments injects a
little humanity into this relentlessly
irreverent series hey we’re the my
hard-boiled eggs
number seven ooh
anyhoo she’s got a little hard-boiled
egg going there oh it’s so cute she
sometimes takes a little pack of
mayonnaise and she’ll squirt it in their
mouth and then she’ll take an egg and
kind of she calls it um a an egg are you
okay
I don’t feel so good Michael simply
can’t hide his ambivalence toward his
son’s first girlfriend bland I haven’t
met him
yes you have Michael had met an let her
in in fact not one member of the Bluth
family seems to understand just what
George Michael sees in plant her her huh
was she funny herself don’t don’t worry
about number six the literal doctor
oh this guy again next up is the doctor
with the atrocious bedside manner
how’s my son he’s going to be all right
that’s a great attitude I got to tell
you if I was getting missed news I don’t
know that I take it this well but you
said he was all right yes he’s lost his
left hand so he’s going to be all right
she’s a very literal man the literal
doctor has fans later dubbed him has a
nasty habit of employing the euphemistic
well literally coming from him even good
news can be harrowing how is he doctor
it
looks like he’s dead oh just to be clear
it looks like he’s dead or he is dead it
just looks like he’s dead he’s got like
a little paint on him or something but
he’s going to be fun what is wrong with
you doctor number five more than just a
screw loose
as we all know Buster has issues with
his mother Lucille no mother
yes mother mother sisters my new mother
mother it seems that the harder he tries
to get away the more he’s pulled back in
oh you’re so brilliant even when he’s in
the arms of another woman I’m leaving my
mother for you you are replacing my
mother or frolicking in the ocean for
the very first time there’s always a
Lucille close at hand a seal fights off
new pan number four Jay Walter
weatherman yeah the man used to scare
his children and one time as an adult
what better way to teach your kids life
lessons like the importance of leaving a
note than to capitalize on the natural
attribute of your one-armed ex-employee
Jay Walter weatherman could just be the
most effective parenting tool ever
conceived
number three trapped in the closet
you’re good
no no no let’s see how many times plus
we have this as Tobias few K explains in
his wildly successful book there is a
man inside him dying to get out and
while he may think he’s got it under
control the world’s only an hour pissed
makes innumerable Freudian slips that
revealed just how deep in the closet he
is I’m afraid I just blew myself I
prematurely shut my wad I see you wasted
no time in filling my seat hole even if
it means me taking a chubby I will suck
it up I wouldn’t mind kissing that man
between the cheeks right I have
something of a mess on my hands it’s
just there’s so many poorly chosen words
in that sentence number two the chicken
dance you’re gonna get off and do your
little dance too
now I hurt my ankle yesterday shooting
hoops or something jobs go to tots comes
in the form of an utterly bizarre and
ill-informed
chicken impersonation while biologically
inaccurate it nonetheless proves an
effective way of taunting his younger
brothers chickens but the real payoff
for this running gag is when the whole
Bluth plan gets in on the action
number one the very real condition of
the never-nude he’s a never-nude is that
exactly what it sounds like and taking
our top spot as the best recurring gag
on Arrested Development
Tobias suffered a rare psychological
affliction of never being able to be
completely naked excuse me
do these effectively hide my thunder
Tobias this phobia of being naked ever
even in the shower proves to be a rich
comic well that mitchell hurwitz and his
writers room often return to I mean this
is a real affliction I you know I’m
sorry it’s not recognized here in the
States but I know for a fact that there
are two members of German parliament
they’re called nine Vil standing nude do
you agree with our list or do you think
we’ve made a huge mistake for more
