There are just some shows whose jokes have become so deeply rooted in our lives that we would be lost without them. "Arrested Development" has become one of those shows for me and my friends, and I've noticed that the characters represent the colleges in Ohio.

1. Lindsay: Miami University

She’s entitled, spoiled, and thinks the world revolves around her, but at the end of the day, she’s actually a caring person and knows a thing or two. She’s an interesting mix.

2. Lucille: Ohio University

Is she ever not drinking?

3. Michael: Case Western Reserve University

He’s the smart big brother trying to keep everyone else in line.

4. Gob: Bowling Green State University

He can be found in party central at all times. Does anyone want to see a magic trick?

5. George Bluth Sr.: University of Akron

Akron has a longstanding tradition of Greek life...is this how recruitment works?

6. Kitty: Wright State University

It’s just a week off school—calm down.

7. Tobias: Youngstown State University

Like Tobias’ acting career, it's there, but nobody knows about it.

8. Gene Parmesan: The Ohio State University

If you accidentally call it Ohio State University, it’ll only be about .02 seconds before someone reminds you that it's THE Ohio State University. Has this person just been following you around waiting to say that?

9. Maeby: University of Findlay

This is basically the child that nobody pays attention to.

10. Ann: Xavier University

Don’t even think about doing the wrong thing with her around.

11. George Michael: Baldwin Wallace University

He’s just kind of watching the rest of us fumble around and trying to adult.

12. Maggie Lizer: University of Toledo

They wouldn’t know what’s going on even if it hit them. Well, that’s what we thought at least. Wait, what?

13. Buster: Kent State University

You never know what they’re going to say.

14. Bob Loblaw: Capital University

He probably went to law school here.

15. Steve Holt: University of Dayton

They get way too excited anytime anyone talks to them, even though they’re popular and well-known.

16. Annyong: Otterbein University

He just kind of pops in every once in awhile to see what everyone’s up to.

All of the characters are great, but they each have their funny little quirks. I think it's time to go watch a few more episodes while I work on my next article.
