A Tribute to Arrested Development’s Tobias

By Ben on May 24th, 2013

Dr. Tobias Fünke, played brilliantly by David Cross is the flamboyant husband and actor wannabe to Lindsay Bluth, who in real life is Portia de Rossi, who is married to Ellen Degeneres (to think it’s really de Rossi who is the gay one in that relationship). To celebrate the return of Arrested Development this weekend, let’s now pay tribute to Tobias “Never Nude” Fünke.

Great Tobias Dialogue

Tobias: [footage of Tobias trying on a Speedo with his cut-offs on] “Excuse me, do these effectively hide my thunder?”

Tobias: “Okay, Lindsay, are you forgetting that I was a professional twice over – an analyst and a therapist. The world’s first analrapist.”

Tobias: “Don’t leave your uncle T-Bag hanging.”
George Michael: “Don’t call it that.”

Maebe: [noticing Tobias dressed in all leather] “Didn’t you get a job or something?”
Tobias: “No, no I didn’t. Unless… you consider “World’s Coolest Daddy” a job.”

Tobias: “Boy, I sure feel like a Mary without a Peter and a Paul.”

[Tobias has painted himself blue]
Tobias: “I blue myself.”

Transvestite Store Clerk: “Are you going to actually buy something this time, or are you just curious?”
Tobias: “Well, let’s just say that I’m buy-curious.”

Tobias: “Michael, you are quite the cupid. You can stick an arrow in my buttocks any time.”
