You can't handle the Bluth. Netflix has announced that Part 2 of Season 5 of Arrested Development will launch on Friday, March 15. Eight episodes from the second half of the season will be available for streaming. In these upcoming episodes, pressures mount on the Bluth family as Buster heads toward a murder trial. The Bluth company is on the hook to build a ’smart’ border wall that puts them in debt and risks exposing a software hoax perpetrated by George-Michael. Soon the gay mafia is involved and it appears that even Michael can’t save the family this time. And Tobias becomes a Golden Girl.
