ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT Teases Satire of Donald Trump and MAKING A MURDERER for Season 5
Season 4 of Arrested Development ended with Lindsay Bluth gaining political support for a speech she gave on constructing a wall around Mexico and Buster Bluth getting locked up for a crime he says he's innocent of. THIS ALL HAPPENED THREE YEARS AGO. Granted, Donald Trump has been going on about his wall for quite a while, but props to Mitch Hurwitz to really telegraphing a perfect set up for season five. Deadline reports that both Donald Trump and Netflix's other acclaimed series, Making A Murderer, will be spoofed heavily in the upcoming season.
Yeah, supposedly other plans were in place, but the current events made it so perfect that Hurwitz has rewritten episodes to fit the current state of our nation.
There were some story lines that had to be scrapped as well, such as George Bluth becoming a woman. This story was nixed for Jeffrey Tambor after his acclaimed performance in Transparent, for fear it would undermine his role there. Still no word on when it will be done, as actors have not even been secured as of yet, but we're hoping it happens soon!
