Honestly, I'm so used to just tuning shows out during title sequences that I wasn't even paying attention. I heard them use the names, but wasn't paying attention to what was flashing on the screen.

I wouldn't be surprised if they focused so much on it during marketing to make you wonder why it wasn't in the season.
I don't recall seeing it at all.

I'm about to start a rewatch, and I think I'm going to jump around instead of watching them in the same order.
Just for a slightly different perspective.

It's what I've been doing.
Also, I could see there being actual money hidden in the Banana Stand again to help Michael. We'll see, of course.

Who is the Thing in the musical? I thought Buster did it, but the final episode makes a point to show him sit it down and not do it.

This is semantics, and nothing more
Did anyone do it? I don't remember completely, but I thought they were singing about the "Fantastic Three" when they were actually putting on the musical.

Anyone else love the joke about Maeby's check? It was a royalty Check for the movie Gangie 4: Facelift. Where as everyone thought it was from Lucille to Maeby for her to get a Facelift. xD
They did work their way up to "Four" in the song's lyrics, Nice touch on the credits being put over the play for "all their hard work." haha.

I wonder what the meaning behind the Red Hair (Red Herring) wig is. It exchanges characters hands quite about through the season.

He joined al Queda! That says al Queda on it! But maybe he thought it was the designer of the brush.

I just loaded it up and someone is playing the Thing. And whoever it is doesn't know the choreography.

Totally forgot about "On the next Arrested Development" for Maeby's episode. Sally is interviewed on the morning after Quatro, and mentions they're hopeful that Lucille 2 will still be found. She's gotta be
In the Banana stand! It makes wayyyy too much sense now.

There's always money in the banana stand!
This is reaching, but, Michael owes her money...there's always money in the banana stand.
Yeah, totally reaching.
And totally beaten
Yes I did, that one took me more than a couple of eps to confirm though.

Goddamn, just watched Maeby's episode and finding out the offscreen squawks from earlier episodes were her saying "FUCK!" had me fucking rolling on the floor. Seriously, this show is brilliant.
On a somewhat related note, is it just me or has Alia Shakwat really, erm, grown a bit since the show originally aired? Or did she just not wear as emphasizing clothes in the original run?

I've only seen the first three episodes, but I'm not feeling it so far. I understand they have to film around the actors' schedules, but it's just too off-putting focusing on one character for 30 minutes.
I'm hoping it turns around pretty soon, but I'll keep my expectations in check.

Wait until the end of ep 5 before you write it off. Things start getting real around there. Believe it or not there's method to the madness of showing things from different characters perspectives in a particular order.
This hurts me. I preferred the way she looked before, but I don't think she looks bad here either.
The worst kind. I hope they get another season or a movie. Preferably a season, I need more of AD in my veins.

If you had read (and it's a good thing you haven't) the past 20 or some pages of posts, the overwhelming consensus is that it takes about 3-5 Episodes to feel in the "swing" of things again. As everything starts to connect. For some people, it takes until the Gob episode, but that's when things start to get awesome.
I think she lost some weight or something....might be a combination of things.
But she's the only one that noticeably changed (even more than the kids).

Watch more. Definitely starts getting enjoyable.
It starts off slow but picks up. Stay with it. It's well worth it.

Lol I thought she actually wore clothes in s4 that generally aren't very emphasizing
And just noticed that Lucille says "I've got to get away, get away" in ep 14
I noticed it in her first episode, but as soon as she cuts her hair she looks herself again, which is strange since she didn't cut her hair before. I think it was just her makeup.
And for me, the first few episodes were a bit weird because I didn't get what they were doing, but once I did it was just like the old times, and I think I'll appreciate those episodes more on rewatches.
I appreciate how different the show was. They really did a good job not relying on the same format.

It's weird, because there's this beautiful picture of her:
That was from only a few months ago. So what happened between then and now? Maeby it was special makeup? or she did get a facelift before the show, it's uncertain. I still think she's very attractive.
Watch Da Birdie
I buy cakes for myself on my birthday it's not weird lots of people do it I bet
I thought Maeby's actress is the biggest "wow, what happened?" for me.
She's not ugly by any means, but, like, the freckles and hair cut just...look really odd. I've only seen her in the flashback episodes, so maybe they purposefully "younged" her up and when they get to the present with her she'll look more natural.

I seriously want that "getaway" song as my ringtone.
Also, Alia... I kinda thought she was cute during the first three seasons (I was about 17 when I watched them first, so don't send me to Sudden Valley) and now she has grown into exactly the kind of girl I'm most attracted to. (How the fuck does she make a bulky sweater look too tight in the right places?)

I posted this in the other thread and, minus the weight loss, her biggest difference is eyebrows.

Who is in the Thing suit?
Who has those shoes? Is the word "poof" a clue that it's Gob or Tony Wonder?

Good catch. Looks like a stance that they would use also... do we know anything about what else they might have been doing?
Such a fantastic joke...
All the way to the zebra print.
I seriously just do not understand this joke... can someone explain it to me?

When Buster sucker punched Terry Crews, he dropped the costume and ran away, but the camera Panned on the costume laying there on the ground. So who picked it up?
It's possible it's Gob, after George Michael talked to him at the party, but then, we don't know what Tony Wonder was doing at Quarto yet either. Hmm...

Gob was with tony wonder during the cinco.

The intro of Entourage has all the characters actor names showcased on random nightlife buildings/signs.
In AD, they took Jeremy Piven's credit and made it an actual bar/club. LOL

I thought the same thing. It reallly starts picking up in Ep. 5. Keep watching.
Ahhhhhhh, no wonder I didn't pick up on that. I've never seen Entourage. :lol
That is really clever though.
Thanks for explaining.
