Big Bang Theory references Arrested Development.avi

[Thisisme10100]

A trick is something a whore does for money or cocaine

[HaI0gen]

@antonio610 if each Arrested Development episode had a laugh track, It would be 22 minutes of laughter.

[CuriousWhale]

TBBT is so bad.

[nckclick]

Tricks are what whores do for money.

[jayfrayshaytay]

but i think the joke was originally done on the Larry Sanders Show, Jeffery Tambor says it, anyways though Arrested Development is the best

[antonio610]

This video reminded me of how much laugh tracks suck. Arrested Development should have killed them forever.

[shrek4414]

a trick is something a whore does for money......or candy.

[XIVTemperance]

@shrek4414 "...or cocaine."

[Tura88pd]

You could actually watch an Arrested Development episode you've already seen 10 times and still notice something you never did before. Then you could watch an episode of BBT you never saw before and feel like you're seeing something you've already saw 10 times in the other episodes (or, as in this video, in other shows). It's a shame that quality series like AD or Bored To Death get canceled at their third seasons while series like BBT make it to their 5th.

[TechGameStuff]

I love both shows, but (surprisingly enough) Arrested Development has much more intelligent writing. Each episode is a satire, which most of its audience does not realize, and it makes fun of generic TV shows, such as BBT. BBT = set up for joke then punch line. AD = set up for situation, then comedy follows the entire episode rather than repetitive jokes/puns. Only a few shows can pull that off successfully, Friends being the best of them. but AD is the most intelligently written show

[Mrbillsfan11]

This isn't a reference; this is a ripoff. It's hard not to rip something off, but this is pretty blatant. A repeated joke from one of the best comedies of the past decade, definitely a ripoff. Still, I bet you could find something in just about every comedy that's ripping something else off. It's just the way that Arrested Development >>>>>>>>> The Big Bang Theory that makes this so annoying.

[dinkthroughball]

this is such a lame version of arrested development

[jedi299]

Big Bang theory is just...just god awful.

[TheSuperImmortalKing]

There not tricks. A trick is something that a whore does for money.

[jerbearwoods]

@TheSuperImmortalKing or candy



[OTTTB]

ILLUSIONS MICHEAL!

[alkalinenofx]

funny thing is the dude who plays howard was on arrested development as a guy working for maybe at the movie studio

[pipwitheridge]

Like Wolowitz is ever going to be funnier than the guy in the $4000 suit!? COME ON!

[gojira931]

The Big Bang theory is for people who think they're smart. Arrested Development is for people who actually are smart.

[JamesMarshallHendr1x]

If they'd used a laugh track, you wouldn't have been able to hear the dialogue for the sheer level of density of the jokes. Plus the magic of Arrested Development, at least for me, lay in discerning the subtle jokes interspersed between the slightly-more-obvious jokes, nestled between the laugh-out-loud moments. The moral out of all of this?

ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT FOR EVER <3

[jacktchance]

Arrested Development didn't need to use a laugh track as a crutch.

[WTFmonkeyfaceWTF]

@jacktchance they were originally going too, but with too much brilliant jokes the laugh track would just take up time, and i'm glad that it chose hat path :)

[Nitrowolf2]

Tricks are what whores use to get money... or crack

[JammastaJ23]

AD pwns all

[revoltinggnome]

Douche chill

[ZineAFC]

Not sure this is stealing nor referencing. Unless Arrested Development were the first to say that it's not tricks it's illusions.(They were not)

I also like Arrested Development way more than Big Bang before anyone comes and attacks me for saying that.

[aggmedia]

@ZineAFC Agreed.This essentially is just a "shit magician's say" joke.

Oops. Sorry... "illusionists".

[sam345]

references or steals? hmmmmmm



[MetalChipz]

Yeaaaaaah this is definitely not reference, this is just stealing a joke.

[DarKnightofCydonia]

Stay out of my territory.

[ravingrabidpugTICTAC]

NO 

[retsilagnilooc]

You guys all know that the actor who played Wolowitz was actually in 2 episodes of Arrested Development.

[WhyIAm7]

not a reference. STOLEN.

[irman925]

I don't know if anyone remembers, but the guy who plays Howard was on a couple episodes of Arrested Development

[mario6sic6]

@irman925 i remember lol

[imdrzoidberg]

@irman925 as well as derrel and kevin from the office :)

[irman925]

@imdrzoidberg and Andy, and the guy who was dating Holly

[Opinions4Chu]

Wow i like both shows, arrested development is better but damn

[saiftg]

tricks are what whores do for money....come on!

[PolyphonicPress]

@saiftg Or candy.

[eliran28]

That was godawful. Arrested development will always prevail

[mlucyk]

This dude was in an episode of Arrested Development . . I just watched it haha

[mlucyk]

It's a compliment to Arrested Development

[monkeysoulpoet]

Yeah, like the crappy Chuck Lorre show is going to reference the show about the guy with the $6,000 suit? COME ON!

[MrticTac921]

BBT is funny, but no Arrested Development.

[girlsnextdoorkendra]

@MrticTac921 Arrested Development is to Big Bang Theory what Breaking Bad is to Glee! ... I mean...COME ON! I love them both, BBT has it's merits, but no way, AD is pure comedy. It's way more intelligent than BBT, and it's a joke inside a joke inside a joke (like the producer said). There's no comparison here. But to a sitcom with a live audience, I can say that BBT is the best right now.

[MrticTac921]

@girlsnextdoorkendra I agree, if im bored i'll watch this show, but to me i think the writing for BBT has gotten lazier, and just relies on sexual jokes.

[dogpowerd]

Keep Arrested Development's name out yo filthy mouth big bang theroy!

[MrAdamBon]

have we forgotten simon helberg was on AD? could have been ad-libbed

[LauraBotting]

I dont get why youtube has a dislike button...if you don't like the video DON'T WATCH IT!!!!!

on a positive note, i love that my second favourite show is referencing my favourite show!!! XD

[MonJoe20]

ILLUSIONS, dad! You don't have time for my illusions!

[Nineteenth]

I rather have a walking GOB bluth reference like Nick from L4D2 than have a short shout out on a show I can't stand to watch anymore.

[15wardj]

I've never seen this episode, but I hope to God he starts the next part of that sentence with "and secondably".

[slicknick2208]

The show with the laugh track is taking lines from the guy with the 5000 dollar suit?! COME ON!

[downhomesunset]

This blows! Total copying-I'm surprised he didn't say a trick is what a whore does for cocaine!

[qwgar]

@downhomesunset i thought is was "whore does for money" but it doesnt matter :D im just so exited that a 4th season is coming out!!

[downhomesunset]

@qwgar If you watch the extended pilot on DVD, it's cocaine. Also they originally aired "cocaine" in the east and FOX made them change it by the time it was on in the west!

[qwgar]

@downhomesunset HA thats so cool that fox changed that, yet left in all the other bad words and gestures, yet cocaine isn't a bad word

[MrticTac921]

@qwgar Is this about the whole "Or Candy" ordeal? lol

[qwgar]

@MrticTac921 i guess, i never heard of that version

[JakeAndyKling]

Lol its not refrencing its just completly copying

[giantsean76]

Ha I love how whenever Family Guy does this people say Seth Macfarlane is ripping off jokes from the Simpsons, but when it happens on the Big Bang Theory it is referencing? Nope, only Will Arnett can make that funny.

[mooseninjawarrior]

BBT could never even dream of being as good as Arrested Development.

[welitheskyonfire]

@mooseninjawarrior lets never mention them in the same sentence again.

[owenrhysmagic]

@mooseninjawarrior Die in a hole you know nothing big bang theory is MILES better.

[mooseninjawarrior]

@owenrhysmagic Remember kids, don't feed the troll. :)

[boydman117]

@mooseninjawarrior Amen to that.

[Seiferzed]

@mooseninjawarrior could " never dream " really ? am going to watch arrested development now and if its not 1000 times better than BBT i will stick my shoes up your exaggerating tight ass !

[mooseninjawarrior]

@Seiferzed 303 up-votes can't be wrong.

[Seiferzed]

@mooseninjawarrior look at the dislike bar for this video and review the fact that BBT is more popular than AD .. you depend on a 303 thumbs up of AD fans ? boy you're really naive ....

[NinjaMcCondor]

@Seiferzed The dislike bar is high because BBT is bad. Arrested Development is amazing.

[Seiferzed]

@NinjaMcCondor the title says BBT references AD thats why it got thumbs down ..google the ratings and you will see that BBT is much more appreciated ..i didn't watch any of arrested development but am really beginning to hate starting it because the already hint of its dumbass fans .. am sure AD will appreciate your effort of making people hate it ; )

[misfitstattoo]

@mooseninjawarrior Aye, TBBT is more of a sitcom, where as arrested development is genius.

[TheAzianphil88]

@mooseninjawarrior

I agree.
