The Best Of Larry Middleman - Arrested Development

He's worth every penny
Arrested Development is an American television sitcom created by Mitchell Hurwitz. The show follows the Bluths, a formerly wealthy dysfunctional family. It is presented in a serialized format, incorporating handheld camera work, voice-over narration, archival photos, and historical footage. The show maintains numerous running gags and catchphrases. Ron Howard serves as both an executive producer and the omniscient narrator and, in later seasons, appears in the show portraying a fictionalized version of himself.
The series received critical acclaim, six Primetime Emmy Awards, and one Golden Globe Award, and attracted a cult following. It has been named one of the greatest TV shows of all time by publications including Time, Entertainment Weekly, and IGN. It influenced later single-camera comedy series such as 30 Rock and Community.

Super Dave!!!! Rip ❤

[@drakoinx]

Well thanks for ruining my night.

[@corndogrequiem1728]

He was no Einstein

[@dhaang126]

On the DVD commentary, they were talking about how Bob Einstein doesn't learn lines so they literally had someone feeding him his lines in that earpiece. Amazing.

[@JoeLyoutube1111]

No way🤣

[@JohnBasedowYoda]

I always find it hilarious whenI hear stories about actors who refuse to learn lines. That has to be the only job where you can get away without doing a core component of it and still having a chance at being a legend

[@BigPoppa931]

I mean, in this case the actor was in character about as much as. he could have been

[@yevgeniyaleshchenko849]

@@JohnBasedowYoda I don't think in this case he was ''refusing'' per se, maybe it was done on purpose to achieve the desired comedic effect

[@dikydankedude]

That opening line "We're not here to talk nonsense with Bob Loblaw" 😂

[@sublimeade]

WahWahWah

[@kingmanuelful]

Never noticed before how George senior says at 03:03 “I’m watching the game” and Larry only repeats it at 03:07 because of the lag

[@infpail7232]

Thank you for pointing that out lol

[@cerpintaxt362]

Good catch

[@martino5742]

One of the best comedic premises and executions ive ever seen, sincerely. And casting marty funkhouser was a stroke of genius

[@dgxkeyboards4535]

He is worth every penny.

[@oscarmarek7746]

Hey I didn’t say that!

[@josemaria8177]

It's a shame that Funkhouser had to work as a surrogate. Good thing that Larry David or Richard Lewis never discovered this. They would have mocked him to pieces

[@Blas4ublasphemy]

I heard Mr Fuji screwed him over big in the end and he was left broke...

[@HRHorti]

What an einstein.

[@baronvonblackout7478]

In the DVD extras (😱) he gets a lot of praise from the cast and producers for this role. He also apparently never liked to memorize lines, so this was kind of perfect for him.

[@isCooperLymn]

Bob Einstein really pulled these two characters off

[@blacktimhoward4322]

I'm glad that even a pro like Larry has a breaking point. It really fills him out as a character

[@theZinator]

“He’s worth every penny” “Hey I didn’t say that” Lmao, Larry knows how to promote himself

[@LB__1]

But he can't sell the sarcasm.

[@matthis1992]

i love how job just accepts him as his dad

[@arresteddev]

Gob and yes!!

[@Ethan-tn4jc]

@@arresteddev Did I say job? I meant Gob! But of course it was Buster that hit her, Gob just gave her the roofie

I said this on another video, but I find George Sr not wanting to be interrupted while watching baseball to be lovable for some reason. It’s just that, with him shouting “don’t come in here”, you expect him to be trying to escape or something lewd. But nah, the guy just likes his baseball.
