I'm so excited for Scott Baio!

The preview for this episode cracked me up:

"We're not here to talk nonsense to Bob Loblaw."

Oh, i've been counting down the days since last week for this. It just sucks that i have to wait until Thursday to see the Episode. But it's "So" worth the wait.

This was cool!

"Hey, that's the name of this show!"

Tobias's business card!

All the roofies!

I think it's clear that Rita's wearing all those hats as some kind of camera or recording device, but they are so ludicrous, just like her backpacks.

My favorite moment tonight was Gob trying to force a roofie on Michael and saying "take this and love us again!"

~Melissa~ · 10-03-2005, 09:21 PM

I loved that Tobias is now a "Analrapist"

It also cracked me up that Buster overcame his fear of seals by attacking Rita. All week long my friend and I were saying Bob Loblaw, and it still made me laugh during the show. How do they come up with the stuff they do?

Did anyone notice that when Rita sat on the bench with the Wee Britain ad, it looked like it said "Wee Brain"?

I wasn't sure if I should have been laughing at that or not

That was the best moment of the episode for me too. Will Arnett has been on fire this season!

Oh man what a hilarious episode

Cursed, I noticed that also when Rita was sitting on the bench, I even mentioned it to my brother.

I'm also thinking that Rita's hats have some kind of recording device because when she was wearing that davy crocket type of hat she was holding the tail straight at Michael when she mentioned his family. And also at the end how they focused on her hat.

Tobias's business card was priceless

Me and my brother were cracking up. Analrapist

And loved it when Buster said "He was just analraping me"

I love Bob Loblaw, I also kept saying it all last week. It's hilarious that they come up with these names.

I just love Gob and his rufies

I loved it when he told Michael "Take this and love us again"

And then when they showed "On the next AD" and we see him telling Steve Holt that he's his father and then takes a rufie so he can forget

George Sr. trying to escape with the balloons and Buster causing his plan to backfire by throwing the medal

The scene when they play it in slow motion to see what the military guy said

That part was hilarious. It was still fast how he was talking even in slow motion and it was hilarious how long it was taking Buster to say thank you

The surrogate George Sr.

Even though it was such a cheap laugh I got a kick out of Ron Howard saying, "Hey! That's the name of the show!"

Great scene. I couldn't stop laughing when they showed Buster's face in slow motion

I love every scene GOB has with Steve, I hope they keep up with those. Will Arnett is doing a great job playing GOB as a conflicted father.

I missed it! Argghh! For some reason I was convinced it was on at 9, not 8. Blah. I saw the "analrapist" thing at the-op.com though.

Luckily my parents TiVo the show so I can watch it when I go home for Thanksgiving break.

Cress · 10-04-2005, 12:17 PM

Oh, did you guys notice in the girlfriend flashbacks that they had a different person playing Marta? Now there's three!

Cursed · 10-04-2005, 12:38 PM

I was trying to figure out if it was Marta One or Marta Two but when I rewatched it I realized that it was a new one. Reminds me of the DVD audio commentary where they joked about bringing Marta back with a different actress.

I also liked the joke about Bob Loblaw being like Barry but skewing younger. Another reference to Happy Days since Scott played Fonzie's younger cousin who was basically a Fonzie wannabe.
