45 Favorite Episodes: 6

This is surprisingly an underrated episode of Arrested Development, but I consider it Mitch Hurwitz's masterpiece. The show at its best, if you will. Season two. Episode sixteen. Meat the Veals. I could describe to you why the episode is fantastic, but there's so much that it demands a list.

• Tobias as Mrs. Featherbottom falling through the glass table.
• "I don't want no part of your tight ass country club, you freak bitch!"
• The zoom-in on Franklin's face.
• Tobias' not-so-subtle run up the staircase.
• Gob giving up his father so quickly.
• "Oh, I forgot. You drive on the right side of the road here in the colonies."
• Big Yellow Joint plays.
• One of the hot cops comes back.
• Maeby references Topher Grace.
• Oscar questions his fatherhood three times.
• "Who would like a banger in the mouth?"

It's truly the perfect episode of Arrested Development.
