Arrested Development is a comedy TV series that chronicles the descent from the wealth of the fictional Bluth Family. Michael Bluth, the most "well-adjusted" of the group, decides to break away from the family and let them fall into ruin after his father is imprisoned for real estate fraud. Despite his attempts, Michael tries to protect his family - from themselves - as he tries to settle his family's affairs and clear them of wrongdoing while caring for his teenaged son.
