| rocketpig said: One of the best delayed jokes was Ron Howard saying "but in no way are we disparaging Andy Griffith in this show" (not exact quote). It took me a good ten seconds to understand that line and then I just about died laughing. Oh, and the "Daytime Desi" award show was another sly joke that took a few seconds for me to understand. I just watched Meet the Veals again. That is a great episode. It took me a few viewings to figure out that was Ione Skye. Damn, she's still hot. The George Michael Star Wars kid video was funny but the bit following it with Buster was the real brilliance of that joke. "...oh, and he also liked Star Wars".

One thing I just noticed for the first time was during one of the courtroom bathroom scenes with Michael and Barry, when everyone leaves the bathroom, Barry does the Fonzie "run a comb comb through the hair and then hold his hands out while grinning at the mirror" thing. Such a preposterous character, but Winkler pulls it off with style. The hilarity behind the fact that Barry instantly recognizes the "landscape" shot of the "bunkers" for what they really are just hit me in one of my most recent viewings.
And David Cross turned Tobias from what could have been a minor character into one of the most consistently hilarious people on the show. The entire catalog of crazy quasi-gay shit that comes out of his mouth over the course of the show goes so far beyond believeable that it just comes all the way back around and smacks me in the back of the head.
"And while George Michael had only gotten to second base, he had gone in head first. Like Pete Rose."
"You forgot to say 'away' again." "That was the office. Nellie has blown them all away."
The dedication you show to any particular console or company is inversely proportional to the number of times you have gotten laid. If you get laid enough, even if you prefer a certain brand, you just don't give enough of a shit to argue about it on the internet.
