The show: Filmed with handheld cameras documentary-style, the six-time Emmy award-winning cult hit trails the antics of Michael Bluth and his comically dysfunctional family after his father is imprisoned for fraud.
The cast and crew: Jason Bateman as Michael Bluth, Michael Cera as his quirky son in a role that catapulted him to stardom, and Portia de Rossi portraying Michael's shallow sister Lindsay.
The status: Ran for three seasons on Fox before getting canned. Rumors of a movie circulated for years before it was announced Netflix would exclusively air 10 new episodes next spring. Co-star David Cross told Rolling Stone that the episode order might be bumped to 13.
