Yes!!!

The good die young, as the saying goes. I was heartbroken when they finally canceled this effortlessly brilliant show. But I take consolation in the DVDs, and will keep my fingers crossed for "Arrested Development: The Movie"!

its development was arrested

I'm glad this is out on DVD, because this was canceled too early. It's fun, funny, and quotable. There are characters you can relate to (some of them in an unfortunate way), and you really want Michael to succeed in the face of... well, his family.

Pretty good :)

Arrested Development has that pure genius quality where the jokes are coming so fast and there is so many that you can watch it over 5 more times and catch another joke every time. The humor is quite often dry, but perfectly timed and brilliantly filmed all of the camera angles work well, and the narrator of Ron Howard is the icing on when awesome cake. Its just about the best show on television, ... read more

Description: Michael Bluth (Jason Bateman), a widower with a 13-year-old son, named George-Michael (Michael Cera), is forced to keep his large and dysfunctional family together after his father (Jeffery Tambor) is arrested for shifty accounting practices at the family-owned conglomerate and the Bluth family assets are frozen, making each member of the eccentric family panic. 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 Tob ...

One of the funniest and smartest shows I have seen

“I have seen a lot of great shows and a few bad ones. Arrested Development is brilliant, at least in my view. The show is well made visually, with very nice photography and sets that don't look cheap in any way. The music is memorable, particularly the theme tune, the story lines are well-structured with any big themes executed cleverly and the writing and jokes are some of the funniest and smartest I've seen. The characters are admittedly strange, but they are also unique and have their likability too, while the acting from the whole cast is consistently top-notch and the show even uses their guest stars in a creative way. All in all, funny, smart and engaging, quite simply a brilliant show. 10/10 Bethany Cox” read more

S.I.S. (36 tv items)

"As it is a national holiday, here's to Arrested Development. Genuinely the funniest show I've ever seen, using comedy that's not only unpredictable but also incredibly well thought out. The mark it made on my life is one that still hasn't gone away, nor would I ever want it to. "
