Arrested Development Reunion on Up All Night!

Up All Night staged a mini Arrested Development reunion this week as Tony Hale guest starred on the show as Reagan's dentist.  While he spends most of his screen time acting with Christina Applegate (Reagan), he does have a brief encounter with his Arrested Development co-star Will Arnett (Chris) which is just about as perfect as you could hope for:



Hale greeting Arnett's character with "What's up my brother!" was an obvious reference to his popular Arrested Development catch phrase "Hey Brother!".  Check out a supercut of all of Buster's (Hale's) "Hey Brother!" moments from Arrested Development below, many of which are directed at Will Arnett's character GOB.


Hopefully Up All Night can get David Cross or Jason Bateman or another one of Will Arnett's Arrested Development co-stars to come on next!  And we're only a few short months from Spring 2013, when Arrested Development season 4 will be coming out!  Steve Holt!

Amy Poehler and Will Arnett Separate

We don't usually report on celebrity relationship news here, but this news was just so shocking that we had couldn't help it.  TV stars Amy Poehler (Saturday Night Live, Parks and Recreation) and Will Arnett (Arrested Development, 30 Rock, Up All Night) are separating after 9 years of marriage.  The separation was said to be "amicable".  They have 2 young children.

While it's pretty common to see celebrity couples breakup, I really thought Amy and Will would make it.  They're both such talented and funny people, and they seemed truly happy whenever they were seen together.  They also often acted together, appearing in each other's TV shows, which only added to the fun the couple seemed to be having together.

However, in retrospect, when they appeared together on screen they usually played a very dysfunctional couple.  I suppose at the time it was funny because we knew they were happily married in real life, but now, going back and watching those old clips is just pretty sad.

Clip of the Day: Chicken Dances

One of our favorite shows that we discovered last year is Arrested Development. It was the summer of Superbad, and we just thought that Michael Cera was the funniest guy alive. And everything we read about the movie cited how Michael Cera had previously starred on a show called Arrested Development, which at the time we had never seen. Additionally, we had seen Will Arnett in Blades of Glory, and we thought he was hilarious, and heard that he was part of this mysterious show as well. Then, we were talking to one of our old friends from high school, and she randomly mentioned how Arrested Development is a hilarious show and it's the type of show that we would like. So, after all this hype, A took a risk and bought me the first season of Arrested Development for my birthday. After the first few episodes, we were hooked, and as soon as we finished the season, we immediately ordered the 2nd and 3rd season sets and watched them in a matter of days. Unfortunately, due to low ratings (why hadn't I heard of this show while it was on?) the show was canceled after only 3 seasons, but there are rumors going around that there will be an Arrested Development movie coming out sometime next year, so let's keep our fingers crossed! Well, without further ado, here is today's clip of the day, the entire Bluth family making fun of Michael for being a chicken, while each doing their own respective chicken dances:
