Arrested Development Drinking Game + Cocktail

Share:

There's always money in the banana stand — and always a reason to drink.

The Rules

  • Sip — a narrator voiceover explains what just happened in deadpan detail
  • Sip — Tobias Fünke drops a line unintentionally sexual about acting or the Never Nude condition
  • Sip — George Michael Bluth lingers uncomfortably near Maeby at the banana stand
  • Sip — Lucille Bluth gives Michael a look of total contempt while sipping wine
  • Sip — Buster says 'Hey brother' or clings to Lucille in public
  • Drink Twice — Gob performs a magic trick and calls it an illusion, not a trick
  • Drink Twice — Ann Veal appears and someone says 'Her?' in response
  • Drink Twice — a running visual callback gag repeats from a previous episode
  • Shot — the banana stand burns down and George Sr. reveals the hidden money
  • Shot — Gob rides the Segway while dressed as a magician during a heist
  • Chug — Michael realizes he has made a terrible mistake and walks away in silence
