Oh my God, the show's not even over yet, and it's so funny! "More touching!" Tobias wanting to be in GOB's "prostate-tacular", the chicken dances, the "You're going to get live-ons".

"You're a regular Brad Garrett"

"I could tase those meaty man parts now"

But the episode immediately won me over when Michael told his father not to call Organge County the O.C. And I also loved, loved, loved that special moment between GOB and Steve Holt at the end.

Did anyone else think of Desperate Housewives when Ron Howard said, "for you see, Rita had a secret of her own." It sounded like something Mary Alice would say.

I absolutely loved all the chicken dances. They were hilarious. The part with Buster's rubber hand was really gross, but disgustingly funny.

Yeah, this was the first time they did a "Previously on Arrested Development" segment. I liked how they showed new footage instead of actual clips from the last episode.

If there can be Mexican areas, or Korean areas, or Armenian areas... why can't there be an English section of Orange County? And I loved the weeBBC and the itsy bitsy IRA.

However I did find the "For British Eyes Only" stuff annoying. Hope they drop that.

I loved everything except Charlize Theron's character. I'm assuming it was on purpose, and we'll find out why next week, but she seemed mentally handicapped. Or was it just me?

I thought that was him and I yelled out "Aaron Echolls?" I thought my eyes were funny because I was watching it at 2:30am.
