Ehh, more clever than funny.

Yup, and still funnier than Two and a Half Men.

 

[Guzim]

Another line that had me cracking up was

Gob: ::reveals himself behind the door:: I didn't even know that we had a cabin.
Michael: Aww shit.

 

[ocelittle]

Yeah the song playing on 'Imoscar.com' is the same song that plays on the show whenever he alludes to him being Busters father.

Funniest music ever.

 

[BorkBork]

Might as well put these on this thread as well, these are some hilarious wallpapers!





More at the site, thanks to Guzim for finding them! :lol

 

[MIMIC]

Still, my favorite AD scene of all time is when Lucille slowly closed the door in Gob's face. :lol :lol :lol

 

[koam]

It's really depression to see that people aren't watching this show. It's really amazing. I'm thinking part of it has to do with the fact that there's no live audiance so the idiots who tried to watch it didn't know they had to laugh.

 

[Oni Jazar]

I think my favorite AD moment is in the Pilot.

Lucille: I love all my children equally!

*snaps to footage eariler that day*

Lucille: .. I don't care for GOB ..

 

[borghe]

It's amazing that, four pages into this thread, we're still catching more jokes. I love this show.

As someone who hasn't seen Season 2 yet -- I only started watching the show this summer and so I'm waiting on the DVDs -- there were some plot points I had to infer. (Buster must have lost a hand somewhere in Season 2, and Tobias somehow ended up with Kitty, however briefly.) But even without having seen that stuff, it was still a great episode

buster losing his hand was a WTF moment because of how they did it. it has turned into the all time greatest running gag of the show (well, maybe second to GM and Maebe's romance).

The Kitty and Tobias thing was like the last episode of Season 2 and seemed kind of forced. it seemed like one of the fallouts from getting the season cut by four episodes.

Like I said folks. Enjoy our season three. buy season two on DVD, and try to get everyone you know to buy the season sets. You can tell them to watch also, but unless their DVR is counted by nielsen or they are a nielsen family that won't matter as much as buying the DVD.

I always loved in season 2 how Oscar always hinting he was Buster's father. The music is what made it :lol

Buster: ::to Lucille:: You’re the one who says I need a father figure.
Oscar: Yes, a father figure.

Oscar: Maybe you can point out to your mother that your father hasn’t arrived yet.
Buster: So... my father’s not here.
Oscar: Maybe he is.

Buster: Gob made me kiss Franklin, and I think my father was here.
Oscar: Maybe he still is.
Michael: Oh, shut up. Buster, where'd they go?
Oscar: Oh you shut up!

Another great running gag was Ann.

George Michael: Of course. We could double-date— you and Sally and me and Ann.
Michael: Who?
George Michael: Ann.
Michael: Yes.
George Michael: And we had...
Michael: Yes. Of course I know Ann. Didn’t mean “who.” I meant, uh... “her.” That’s a great idea. I love Ann.

 

[IAmtheFMan]

The whole "Ann-hog" thing was great.

Also:

Michael: Well, I just figured that life's too short. You two seem to care about each other, so why throw that away, huh? Huh? Okay.
(Ann walks away)
George Michael: You think we really do?
Michael: A father can tell. Okay? It's as Ann as the nose on plain's face.

:lol

 

[Memles]

Both seasons of the show are going on my Christmas List in my DVD section. Here's hoping Season One pops up cheap around the time of Season Two.

 

[Cerebral Palsy]

My favorite AD moment...

Narrator: And G.O.B. caught up with Michael.

G.O.B.: Michael.

Michael: Hey.

G.O.B.: I’ve been looking for you.

Michael: Looks like you’re looking for dragons. In the future.

G.O.B.: I wouldn’t mock the Sword of Destiny, Michael.

Michael: Careful with that, G.O.B.

[Fabric tearing]

Michael: Bleeding?

G.O.B.: Nope. Yeah, that’s blood. It’ll get better before the show.

G.O.B.: That’s what I need you for, Michael. I can’t perform my illusion at the Gothic Castle, because I’ve been banned from the Magician’s Alliance. I need you to register as the magician, and I’m the lowly assistant. Then we get on the stage, and you ram the Sword of Destiny into my belly. What do you think?

Michael: Really picked up steam there at the end. But I can’t.

Michael: I’ve got to teach George Michael how to drive. And then I’ve got to get right back here, because I’ve got to...

G.O.B.: Michael, if I make this comeback, I’ll buy you a hundred George Michaels that you can teach to drive.

Michael: You’re losing blood, aren’t you?

G.O.B.: Probably. My socks are wet.

Michael: Sorry.

G.O.B.: You’ll be sorry! Wait, that doesn’t work after his line.




Oh, and anytime Gob yells, "COME ON!"

 

[borghe]

My favorite AD moment...

you are right. that is truly a great moment. Will Arnett IMHO is the heart of the show. I love all the other actors, but it almost seems the style of the show is designed directly around the style of his character.

Michael: Really picked up steam there at the end. But I can’t.

:lol :lol :lol

it is a shame that the average person probably won't get this line. I love this show, I would marry it if I lived in Utah and could have multiple wives.

I never would have gotten that line if someone hadnt explained it to me.....

 

[Cerebral Palsy]

I'm lost on this one. Is it in reference to the show picking up steam at the end, and Fox cutting the episode order down? Really lost. Tried thinking of possible references to earlier episodes, but I'm having a brain cramp.

Good thing I live in Utah!

 

[Guzim]

Care to explain?

 

[borghe]

no, he was talking about the whole drawn out request picking up steam with

and you ram the Sword of Destiny into my belly. What do you think?

in other words.. ramble ramble ramble ramble stick the sword into my gut.

it's not insanely clever or anything. just one of the little nuances that make the show so great. throwaway lines like that.

 

[Cerebral Palsy]

Oh, I get that. Thought there was some deeper meaning behind it. And yeah, good stuff.

 

[Mihail]

Bah, that's not something to "get." That's just excellent writing.

I often wonder which things are meant to be "gotten," though.

Like Lindsey not wanting the Volvo (vulva) because it's too boxy. Do you think that's intentional?

 

[Cerebral Palsy]

:lol

I can't see how something that blatant isn't intentional.

Going to watch this episode again right now. So gooooooood.

 

[Guzim]

Michael: Plus, you would be following in your old man's footsteps.
Ann: You were student body president?
Michael: Oh, it was close.
Ann: So you lost?
Michael: Who remembers?
Ann: I know I would remember.
George Michael: Ann, if my dad says that he won, then he won.
Michael: I didn’t say I won. I said I can’t remember. But now that we’re thinking about it, I seem to remember that the other guy won the actual title, although there were plenty in the school that wanted to overturn the decision. I said, “Let’s, do not... Let’s not put the school through that.” You know, I haven’t thought about that for years. Good memory.

:lol

My favorite quote about ann is this one

George Michael: Oh, wow. Hey, can I bring Ann?

Michael: Who?

George Michael: Ann. You know, she’s... She’s the girl I’m kind of hanging out with.

Michael: I haven’t met Ann.

George Michael: Yes, you have.

Narrator: Michael had met Ann.

George Michael: You let her in. See, that’s ... That’s her right over there.

Michael: Oh, Ann. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. I know Ann. Hey, you! She’s got a little hard-boiled egg going there?

George Michael: Oh, it’s so cute. She sometimes takes a little pack of mayonnaise, and she’ll squirt it in her mouth all over, and then she’ll take an egg and kind of... Mmmm! She calls it a “mayonegg.” Are you okay?

Michael: I don’t feel so good.

George Michael: You know, I kind of want to buy her a diamond.

Michael: Her?

George Michael: Ann. I know I can’t afford it, but Aunt Lindsay was telling me about this diamond cream...

Michael: George Michael, I’m sure that Egg is a very nice person. I just don’t want you spending all your money...

George Michael: Ann.

Michael: ... getting her all glittered up for Easter, you know?

 

[jetpacks was yes]

:lol :lol

AD never gets old for me.

I just saw this for the first time on Dutch television, I think it's the first season....

Hehe, i also saw it for the first time on dutch tv today. Thought it was pretty funny but last week i saw an episode on the BBC which had me laughing for days. Dont know which season it was, but the scene where George-Micheal had to sing german church songs with his gf's family is a classic!

I'm planning to catch the show every week, finally something worth watching on dutch tv.

 

[FoneBone]

Don't forget this:

Maeby: So, you’re really leaving, huh? Have you told your girlfriend Bland? I mean, Ann.

George Michael: She’s not my girlfriend. And she’s not bland.

Maeby: Really? Because, I mean, under her school picture, it said, “Not pictured.”

George Michael: Okay, they printed a retraction in the spring supplement.

And then, much later in the season:
