Product Description: Level-headed son Michael Bluth takes over the family business after his father is imprisoned. Genre: Television Rating: NR Release Date: 29-AUG-2006 Media Type: DVD
Amazon.com: Arrested Development--one of the greatest comedies in the history of television--went out in a blaze of glory. The truncated final season packed more biting humor per minute than ever before. In only 13 episodes, dozens of intertwining storylines spun in all directions: In addition to the overarching story about the fractious infighting of the Bluth family and the family's housing development company being investigated for treason in Iraq (a plot arc that comes to a dazzlingly surreal conclusion), the put-upon "good son" Michael Bluth (Jason Bateman, Teen Wolf Too) pursues romance with a lovely British woman (Charlize Theron, Monster) who turns out to be woefully inappropriate; swaggering magician Gob (Will Arnett, Monster-In-Law) flees from his newly-discovered teenage son while still pandering for the affection of his self-absorbed father (Jeffrey Tambor, The Larry Sanders Show); flighty Lindsay (Portia de Rossi, Ally McBeal) and her sexually blurry husband Tobias (David Cross, Mr. Show) both get the hots for the family's new lawyer, Bob Loblaw (Scott Baio, Charles in Charge); and much, much more. It's difficult to describe what makes Arrested Development so brilliant. The ensemble is uniformly superb (Jessica Walter, as the family's boozing, scheming matriarch, is particularly devastating this season) and the surprising guest stars (including Andy Richter, James Lipton, Justine Bateman, and many others) are perfectly cast; the characters' abominable behavior defies conventional television notions of "likability", yet they only grow more endearing the more you watch; the humor embraces wild slapstick and sharp satire, often within a single scene; and the nimble documentary style allows for sly glancing references to jokes and scenes from long-past episodes, rewarding devoted fans. But the key is that, no matter how screwball Arrested Development becomes, the show offers a rich, textured, and wonderfully coherent world in which these characters feel genuine, a world completely unlike the flat, plastic simulacrum offered by the average sitcom. Arrested Development was true to itself to the end. Its followers will cherish it forever. --Bret Fetzer

If you've never seen Arrested Development, please go rent at least one season of it (or buy it) immediately. This show is incredible, and you will cry when you realize they've cancelled it.

The third season of this hysterical show lives up to expectations. The show continues to blend dysfunctional family comedy with jabs at current events. (The fact that we're a few years' removed from their current events only makes it more interesting.) Season 3 is packed with guest stars, some of whom are funny (Scott Baio as Bob Loblaw - say that name out loud) and some of whom I found a little creepy (Charlize Theron as Michael's mentally-disabled love interest). Buying the DVD set is worth it, ... Read More

The Third season is pretty funny though not as good as the first or second.
Rating: -
It's a shame that quality doesn't assure success. Case in point: Arrested Development, certainly among the funniest, most twisted sitcoms of all time. It tells the story of the dysfunctional Bluth clan, particularly Michael Bluth (Jason Bateman), who is trying to hold the family's crumbling real estate development company together despite the criminal indictment of his father (Jeffrey Tambor) and the blissfully oblivious weirdness of his free-spending relatives. This final season was cut short ... Read More

Well, I don't know that even 300 words would be enough to describe how great this show and this season is! I could go on and on about Tobias alone for about 900 words or more. Season 3 is full of even more quirky, ridiculous, and hilarious scenarios than the previous two.
And I'm not one to cry about how the show was cut short and should have gone on forever, etc. I'm just happy that it got the green light in the first place, and that for 3 seasons (okay, 2.5) it was a bright spot ... Read More
