Lipton is no stranger to the “Arrested Development” crew, having appeared on a number of episodes of the series — including a spot in the season that launched on Netflix earlier this year — as Warden Stefan Gentles.

On the episode, Hurwitz talks about casting Lipton on the show, recalling, “As I was in the pilot phase I was already thinking about interesting casting, and it was Liza Minnelli and you.”
