Fans of Fox’s Arrested Development know better than to expect subtlety from its writers. A current gag, after all, pivots around brother Buster (Tony Hale), a hook-handed mama’s boy whose fist was bitten off by a carnivorous seal. So when Burger King made a ham-fisted appearance on last night’s episode, ad watchers like myself had a good guffaw. Not content to have a central character chow down on a Spicy TenderCrisp Chicken Sandwich, the writers included a scene where psychiatrist-turned-actor Tobias (David Cross) meets his mentor, Predator’s Carl Weathers, at the restaurant.
