David Cross in Arrested Development (2003)

Arrested Development

Edit
When Tobias returns to Sudden Valley and meets with Gob, Gob greets him with, "Good to see you, old friend!" taken (very loosely) from the song "The Sound of Silence," a running joke for season 4. In this case, the lyric "Hello darkness, my old friend," is modified; it was long referenced throughout Season 3 as well as an idea by the writers room that Tobias may be a black man with a rare skin condition.
Tobias (David Cross)' middle name is revealed as Onyango. Onyango is a name used by Luo People in Kenya and Uganda. Notably, Barack Obama's father's middle name is Onyango.
In the opening credits, Tobias (David Cross)'s instrument is a saxophone and a harp.
Signs on the set of Fantastic 4: An Action Musical have double sexual meanings: Fist! Poof! Drill! Stab.
The music for Tobias (David Cross)'s acting reel is a theme song for the Hot Cops.
