What is Arrested Development about?

The series explores the lives of the Bluths, a perfectly rendered comedically dysfunctional American family and their adjustment to life without the wealth they are accustomed to.

Michael Bluth, a widowed father, is the only normal member of the family - the others chasing extravagant luxurious lifestyles that they just can't afford - and in the series he desperately tries to make his son George Michael a little less spoiled than he's turned out to be.

Other key family members include Michael's parents Lucille and George Bluth Sr., who are both of questionable moral character. Their other son, George Oscar Bluth II or 'Gob', is a failed professional magician, while his twin Lindsay is shallow and attention-seeking and exploits charitable causes for the good of her her own image.

Lindsay has a daughter, Maeby, with oddball asiring actor Tobias Fünke. Completing the Bluth clan is youngest son Buster, a hopeless mama's boy.

So far, the series has won six Primetime Emmys and one Golden Globe.
