Character
George "G.O.B." Bluth II
George "G.O.B." Bluth II in Arrested Development (2003), played by Will Arnett.
G.O.B. is the eldest Bluth son, a self-proclaimed magician clinging to relevance in a family that barely tolerates him. He struts around in cheap illusion-shop capes, chases the approval of a father who ignores him, and treats every setback as an opportunity for a dramatic entrance and exit on a Segway.
Will Arnett plays wounded male ego as pure physical comedy, all chest-out swagger collapsing into flop-sweat panic the moment anyone calls his bluff. The writing never lets G.O.B. learn anything, and Arnett makes that stasis hilarious, turning every scheme, magic trick, and chicken-dance bit into a small monument to self-deception.
