For British Eyes Only - Episode Notes

Episode Notes

  • This episode begins with a "Previously on Arrested Development" segment, which mostly contains scenes that didn't actually appear in the previous episode, but does not have an "On the next Arrested Development" segment at the end.
  • Maeby does not appear in this episode (aside from a brief clip at the start, though this is just footage from the "Righteous Brothers" episode).
  • The title is a spoof on For Your Eyes Only, a James Bond film, as well as picking up the clerk's line that the records in Wee Britain were for "British eyes only." "For British Eyes Only" is also the name (and the only lyric) of the James Bond parody song that played throughout this episode.
  • This episode begins a run of episodes referencing the James Bond series of films, as continued in "Forget-Me-Now," "Notapusy" and "Mr. F". The spoofing of the Bond films is evident in the episode titles, vocal and instrumental music cues, and the gun barrel shot at the end of the episode accompanied by the subtitle "Michael Bluth will return in..."
  • This episode has also been known as "The British Bombshell," as it was originally titled this in early press releases.
  • The episode features six chicken impressions, by George Sr, Lucille and Lindsay, who all dance together. Gob runs to get his chicken mask and does his dance, but no one sees it. Michael and Tobias also do chicken impressions, though no dance is included.

Famous quotes containing the words episode and/or notes:

    Youth is the period in which a man can be hopeless. The end of every episode is the end of the world. But the power of hoping through everything, the knowledge that the soul survives its adventures, that great inspiration comes to the middle-aged.
    Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)

    I am thankful for small mercies. I compared notes with one of my friends who expects everything of the universe, and is disappointed when anything is less than best, and I found that I begin at the other extreme, expecting nothing, and am always full of thanks for moderate goods.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
