Now, the story of a wealthy family who lost everything… and the one team who had no choice but to choose a name inspired by them. It’s “Arrested Development” team names!
First airing in 2003, “Arrested Development” originally ran for just three seasons but managed to gain a cult following and was revived for additional seasons in 2013.[1]
Packed with iconic quotes, complicated family matters, and flawed characters, “Arrested Development” is the type of show you can watch over and over, gaining new insight each time.
In fact, network executives found the show too complicated, asking creator Mitch Hurwitz to sign a contract agreeing to make it easier to understand![2]
Luckily for us (the viewers), he didn’t comply.
