Tobias Funke: I blue myself.
Michael Bluth: There has got to be a better way to say that.

(Tobias is taken to the hospital)

Michael: Everything’s going to be okay. I’m sure he’s going to be fine. I’m so sorry that this happened. I spoke to him just before he left the house.

Lindsay: Oh really? What did he say? What was the last thing he said?

(flashback) Tobias: I just blue myself.

Michael: He said some wonderful things

But where did the lighter fluid come from!?!?!?!

Michael: I don't want to turn this mock trial into some sort of... (trails off)

GOB: You were going to say mockery, weren't you!

[basco]

G.O.B.: Steve Holt’s not my son.
George Michael: Steve Holt? What, the moron jock?
G.O.B.: That’s my son, you pothead.

-------------------------------------------------------

G.O.B.: I will not take this sacred duty lightly. I am going to get you the single healthiest call girl that this town has ever seen.
Michael: This is why I’m calling it a “Witness,” and not a “Best Man.” Look, all you have to do is watch.
G.O.B.: Oh, I’m not going to spend this kind of money and not watch.

-------------------------------------------------------

Lucille: They’re not going to let you in at the country club with that.
Buster: (As Franklin.) I don’t want no part of your tight-ass country-club, ya freak bitch!

-------------------------------------------------------

G.O.B.: It’s okay, she’s alive. And soft. Soft and alive.
Lucille: All right, let’s not add that to the charges.

-------------------------------------------------------

Michael: And so you just finished off the bottle?
Lindsay: Well, I had to. It’s vodka. It goes bad once it’s opened.
Michael: I think that’s another one of Mom’s little fibs.

-------------------------------------------------------

Buster: Mom is becoming a little controlling.
Michael: What tipped you off? When she locked you out on the balcony again?
Buster: That was half my fault. I thought I saw a graham cracker out there.
Michael: You baited the balcony?
Lucille: Prove it.

-------------------------------------------------------

Michael: Look, I don’t want your forgiveness, Dad. I want the guy with the one arm and the fake blood. J. Walter Weatherman. How do I get a hold of him?
George, Sr.: Well, he’s, uh, dead. You killed him when you left the door open with the air conditioner on.

-------------------------------------------------------


Lucille: When’s the last time you went on a date?
Michael: I just haven’t met anybody who’s not completely self-absorbed and impossible to have a conversation with.
Lucille: If that’s a veiled criticism about me, I won’t hear it and I won’t respond to it.

-------------------------------------------------------

Lucille: You gave him a letter to mail.
Michael: And don’t tell me that was too much for him?
Lucille: No, Michael, he mailed the letter. That’s not the point.
Narrator: G.O.B. had not mailed the letter, but in and act of defiance, dramatically hurled the letter into the sea. This proved a more difficult dramatic gesture than he’d anticipated.

-------------------------------------------------------

Lucille: Because Buster’s your brother and I’m not going to leave him home alone with all this j-u-i-c-e around.
Buster: I can spell, Mom. You spelled “juice.”
Lucille: Oh, you’re so brilliant. Let’s see you find it.

-------------------------------------------------------

Lucille: I’ll have the Ike and Tina tuna.
Waitress at Klimpy's: Plate or platter?
Lucille: I don’t understand the question, and I won’t respond to it.

-------------------------------------------------------

G.O.B.: These guys are pros, Michael. They’re gonna push the tension till the last possible moment before they strip.
Michael: They’re not going to strip, are they?
G.O.B.: I told them not to, but I can’t promise that their instincts won’t kick in.

One of my favorites is when George Michael is in the back of the school bus and he looks out and sees George, Sr. in a stolen car (the stair car maybe?), George senior sees him and quickly turns the car off the street. Then right behind him is Maebe in a ferrari or some hot sports car, she makes eye contact with George Michael and quickly turns off the street.

I just finished watching all three seasons over the past week. I laughed the hardest at this scene. [censored] hilarious.

I have no idea why FOX continues to air pure crap while cancelling shows like Firefly, Arrested Development, and Futurama. It's depressing.

Its all about ratings. We can complain all we want but if a show doesnt get ratings they cant keep it on. I know sometimes they mess with that by changing times, but sometimes America in general just doesnt get good TV. AD has to be watched in order to be appreaciated fully, and isnt a show you can pick up midseason without having seen previous episodes. This kills it for the casual viewer. I think people have gotten ok with Dramas being serialized, but are still a little sketchy on comedies. I think were getting close. I dont know why Mitch didnt want to move to showtime tho, that doesnt make any sense. Hopefully they make the movie ASAP.

I also went thru the dvds this past week and with only one viewing thru i can already say its my favorite TV Comedy of all time.
