07.30 Arrested Development

Arrested Development. Episode 21. "Not Without My Daughter"

1. This episode pairs Michael with his niece. An interesting pairing. AD has 9 characters. All of them are deluded in some manner (completely blind to the ways of the real world) except Michael. And, when you think about it... Maeby. Michael views his family with continued bemusement and you get the feeling that he knows better. The same can be said of Maeby. She knows better. But, unlike Michael, is more than willing to break the law when need be.

2. AD always finds novel ways to make you laugh, and this episode contains one of my favourites: the fake-dramatic music on the soundtrack when Michael is being questioned by the policeman.
