Alex Rodriguez and ‘Arrested Development’ Ron Howard’s Meeting Has Fans Envisioning the Former Slugger as Part of the Bluths’ Family

The Bluths’ antics on the sitcom Arrested Development made for some of the funniest moments on television, and fans couldn’t get enough of the dysfunctional and wealthy family’s mischief. The show may have ended years ago, but it seems that the Bluths still are capturing the people’s interest – this time, in an unexpected crossover with former MLB sensation Alex Rodriguez. 

Recently, A-Rod had the chance to meet the show’s director and narrator, Ron Howard. As the former Yankee and the narrator posed for a photo together, it’s not hard to imagine the family popping up in the background, ready to cause chaos. The unlikely pair sparked excitement among fans, who couldn’t help but wonder what kind of comedy might’ve ensued if the baseball phenom was actually a part of the Bluths. 

Fans could not control but react to A-Rod’s inclusion in the Bluths family

Recently, a photo surfaced on Twitter, and the subjects were none other than Ron Howard and Alex Rodriguez. With the caption, “Alex Rodriguez is one of the Bluths confirmed” fans have been going crazy over the picture.

The Twitter conversation has been flooded with made-up quotes from Howard’s character, describing some antic conducted by A-Rod. 

While some don’t agree: 

Well, who knows, maybe the buzz surrounding the picture might just inspire Rodriguez to join the cast to make another season of the show. 

Where would Alex Rodriguez fit in the crew? 

It’s not hard to imagine Alex Rodriguez fitting right in with the Bluth family on the show. After all, the show is known for its quirky and lovable characters. From the struggling magician Gob to self-absorbed socialite Lindsay, the family certainly is a train wreck of dysfunctional personalities. And with characters like the confused young Buster, who has a prosthetic hand, and the alcoholic matriarch Lucille, there’s no shortage of clever plotlines. 

But where would A-Rod fit into this crazy crew? Perhaps he could bring his own brand of drama and excitement to the show. With his well-documented relationships and controversies, there’s no doubt a baseball sensation could add a whole new layer of complexity to the Bluth family’s dynamics. The enduring popularity of the show with A-Rod in the mix will certainly take the sitcom to new heights if it was ever to make a revival!
