The Frozen Banana Stand may be a marketing ploy to promote Arrested Development's new Netflix season, but at least it's got RON HOWARD right now! The Banana Stand is at Columbus Circle right now—look, Opie is eating a frozen banana!
The stand is in Columbus Circle until 7 p.m. today. We hear it'll be at Yankee Stadium tomorrow, from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. The stand will have another day in New York City on Thursday, too, location TBD.
Update: Check out Howard, who narrates the show (he's also executive producer), with AD guest star Terry Crews:
