my favourite episode of all time

This is definitely my favourite episodes of arrested development and I have watched it an innumerable amount of times. The star wars clip was funny the first time, especially because it was followed by busters remix, and even more hilarious reoccurring in front of george michaels classmates. Gob's video was just on the nose for his character and gets me in stitches every time i watch it, especially because of the juxtaposition to steve's prior video which was pious and peaceful, causing gob to panic.

And of course the auxiliary plot line; mrs feather bottom! Another hilarious and appallingly embarrassing performance executed by tobias.

Buster also screams "I'm a monster" which is always a fun line, although stressing out my mum when he starts destroying pillows.

Trivia
The rapid-fire images from George Michael (Michael Cera)'s campaign video were:
1) A spoon of white powder and a hypodermic syringe.
2) A pentagram.
3) A Klansman and a burning cross.
4) A dark, raptorial bird in a tree.
5) A saluting Nazi.
6) Mr. Bananagrabber.
7) A five-pointed star drawn in blood.

Goofs
(at around 17 mins) GOB is yelling out racial stuff about the Indian kid. He turns toward the bleachers to yell some more and then they cut back to Michael and George-Michael's shot, at that time, you can plainly see the cameraman at which GOB was yelling toward in the bleachers.
