What is Arrested Development About? – Plot

Arrested Development is an American television sitcom created by Mitchell Hurwitz for the Fox Broadcasting Company. The show is centered around the Bluths, a formerly wealthy, habitually dysfunctional family and is presented in a pseudo-documentary format, incorporating hand-held camera work, narration, archival photos, and historical footage. Ron Howard is an executive producer and the uncredited narrator. Although set in Newport Beach and Balboa Island, California, Arrested Development was primarily filmed around Culver City and Marina del Rey. Three seasons of the show were produced and aired between 2003 and 2006.
Since debuting on November 2, 2003, the series received six Emmy awards, one Golden Globe, critical acclaim, a cult following, several fan-based websites, and a spot on Time Magazine’s 100 Greatest Shows of All Time. Despite the approval from critics, Arrested Development never climbed in the ratings. Fox aired the final four episodes of the third season in a block as a two-hour series finale on February 10, 2006, opposite the opening ceremonies of the 2006 Winter Olympics.
An Arrested Development motion picture is currently in the works. The film is slated to begin production in late 2009, with a potential 2010 release date. All of the series’ original main cast members are expected to reprise their roles for the film. Hurwitz, Jason Bateman, Will Arnett, and Henry Winkler also have reunited for Hurwitz’s new show Sit Down, Shut Up, which premiered April 19th on FOX.
