Arrested Development is a pretty funny show! This show is about a level headed son named Michael Bluth (Jason Bateman) who takes over the family when his father gets arrested for shifty accounting practices at the family-owned conglomerate and the Bluth family assets are frozen, making each member of the eccentric family panicking. Michael also becomes the widower with a 13-year old son named George-Michael (Michael Cera). Michael's snobbish mother, Lucille (Jessica Walter), finds herself living alone in a penthouse without the financial means to maintain it, while Michael's two brothers, GOB (Will Arnett) and Buster (Tony Hale), and his sister Lindsay (Portia DeRossi) with her husband Tobias (David Cross) and her daughter Mae (Alia Shawkat) also find themselves having to recreate their lifestyles to fit their new financial status. This show got some awards for outstanding comedy TV-series. FOX was almost going to cancel this show but then the network decided to give it another go!
