8:00 PM ⓭ FOX Arrested Development

I know next-to-nothing about the show, but as I was looking through the character list I saw there was a character named George Michael and I couldn’t resist…

George Michael - “Father Figure”

Yeah, the same idea @ranbalam had…

“Father Figure” works too, a lot of the shows humor is derived from the family dynamics, particularly father/son relationships.

I actually had this record a few years before I had my record player - the drummer, Laura House, came by the burrito place I was sous chef at a few times on a tour the band was doing of the islands. We had a couple of nice chats and the last time she came by she popped back in after taking their food to the van and gave me this record - it's a far cry from anything else on my shelf, but comes with nice memories!

Simon and Garfunkel - The Sound of Silence

Today was sorta tough because both Malcolm and Arrested Development are two of my favorite shows of all time, but AD’s first 3 seasons are literal perfection so I went with that! And then picking a reference was also a routine and I had a lot of good thoughts (Liza’s Cabaret and Tina Turner) but I decided to go with the one joke that I actually like from season 4

A few years ago I went as Tobias for Halloween and it’s one of my proudest moments. The host of the party was not thrilled with all the blue hand prints I ended up leaving around lol

PXL_20221130_123547495.jpg

Buddy Holly and The Crickets "The Buddy Holly Story" - look he's on the list and I have a clip marked American Bandstand so I'm going with it! It's the end of the month cut me some slack!!! I had to use one of my wife's records for this...ok I actually really like Buddy Holly might have a lot to do with having parents of a certain age that never gave up control of the radio on long car trips and having a "golden oldies" station... That's now sports talk radio...

AND
Curtis Mayfield "Roots" - the best!!! This is a really interesting back to back but I love it coming and going!! This has been an awesome month, I can't believe I made it to the end!!


The first one was too good not to share!
