I am currently, at this very moment, fulfilling a lifelong dream of watching my comfort show while sitting in an empty bar

Being a regular(ie alcoholic) does have its privileges sometimes

[robbinggoodfellows]

every friend group has the Guy, failed gay magician who has made a terrible mistake, therapist turned member of the blue man group, awkward teenage boy, selfish philanthropist who married a never-nude, one handed autistic cartographer with mommy issues, dad in jail, teenage girl with the personality of a middle aged man

Evidence of the Bluths being Jewish (master list)

Reblog with more if you know of any!

-The creator, Mitch Hurwitz (who’s Jewish), specifically created the family to be ambiguously Jewish (essentially, they were created with Judaism in mind). In an interview with the New Yorker, Mitch said the Bluths were partially based on his Wife’s Jewish family, and they got “more Jewish” as the show went on.

-Both Jeffrey Tambor and Jessica Walter, who played George Sr. and Lucille (the patriarch and matriarch of the family) are Jewish.

-Bluth is a fairly common Ashkenazic last name, this was also specifically in mind when creating the family. In an interview, Mitch said that he gave them a name that was “Jewish, but not too Jewish” (and essentially making them that by extension), to have wiggle room on jokes/situations.

-When George Sr. “converted” in jail, he already knew Yiddish/Hebrew, what a yarmulke was for, and seemingly everything else about Judaism (his reason for conversion was seeing a reflection of the Star of David on the wall, just fyi).

-In season 1 episode 4, there’s a mezuzah on the doorframe of the Bluth model home, which was five episodes before George Sr’s prison conversion.

-This is a bit of a stretch on my part, but when White Power Bill stabbed Gob, he screamed “White Power!” but Gob’s… White…. Now, this could just be Pokémon speak (re: Annyong), but it was specifically stated that WPB was antisemitic.

-Unfortunately, the whole thing with the “Bluth Nose”.

-Perhaps unfortunately, they do fall into a lot of media stereotypes. Most glaringly, the Overbearing Jewish Mother (Lucille), as well the Jewish American Princess (Lindsay) and the Nice Jewish Boy (almost every male character save for George Sr. and Gob). If the Bluths were canonically Jewish these would be blatant stereotypes and I don’t know how I feel about that…

And if any of you were wondering, yes I am Jewish.

Worst Dads:

Top 5 worst tv dads from some shows I’ve seen (feel free to tell me more):

Mikael- TVD (he literally hunted his children and tried to kill them all the time, emotionally neglectful, and obsession with power )

John Winchester- Supernatural (he neglected and abused Sam and Dean, emotionally unavailable, burdened teen dean with child Sam, and sacrificed their childhood )

George Sr- Arrested Development (he traumatized the Bluth children, treated everyone in his family horribly, self-centered, favoritism, manipulative, and put all his mistakes into them )

Frank Gallagher- Shameless (He was an alcoholic abuser who never healed from his own trauma, selfish, manipulative, and irresponsible,)

Uther Pendragon- Merlin (he slapped morgana, stressed Arthur, dismissed Arthur and Morganas feelings, emotionally unavailable, lied, favored Arthur, but neglected morgana, and was hypocritical)

switch George and Frank

Besides, you've always tried to lead a clean life. You and G.O.B. were like those biblical brothers, Gallant and, um... Goofuth.

Crowley will always be a conman to me no matter what good thing he does. In fact, he’s the embodiment of most of Bluth family(George, Lucille, Lindsay, and GOB)
