Synopsis
"In this critically acclaimed hit sitcom, you’ll meet the suddenly penniless, and equally clueless, Bluth family. Accustomed to their wildly affluent lifestyle, they can’t seem to grasp the fact that now the head of the family (Jeffrey Tambor) is in the slammer for shifty accounting practices—and he’s loving every minute of it. Even worse, since the family assets have been frozen, they may actually have to go out and get jobs! The only one who understands the seriousness of their predicament is Michael (Jason Bateman), who realizes it’s up to him to guide his eccentric family into this new chapter of their lives: Chapter 11."
