Must Watch Episode: Season 2, Episode 3: Amigos!

The most original and underrated comedy of all time, “Arrested Development” is a show that aired on the Fox network for only three seasons. The show is so unique because of the diverse and quirky characters as well as outrageous storylines. Jason Bateman plays Michael Bluth, the lead character that takes charge of his family and their mini mansion company when his father George Michael Sr. (played by Jeffrey Tambor) is imprisoned for “creative accounting.” During the process of the investigation, the rest of the Bluths’ moves into a model home. In addition to being the single father of George Michael (played by Michael Cera), he is responsible for his two immature brothers Gob (played by Will Arnett) and Buster (played by Tony Hale). His twin sister Lindsay (played by Portia de Rossi) and her family, aspiring actor Tobias Funke (played by David Cross) and scandalous teenage daughter (played by Alia Shawkat) also take residency there. To complete this talented cast is Jessica Walter who plays the vain and self obsessed Lucille Bluth, mother of the Bluths. Ron Howard offers his voice as the narrator who offers the sarcastic and witty tone. In spring 2013, Netflix will reboot the series with brand new episodes.

Meanwhile, Matt’s best friend Barry (played by Dan Fogler) is fired from his job at a car dealership.
