    Arrested Development dropped from weekly FOX lineup (NOW CANCELED)

    I just heard that Arrested Development is going to be dropped from the Fox lineup for sweeps week and cut down to only 8 episodes left for the season :(

    Get this, they will be showing more Stacked in it's place and their "hit" show Prison Break I'm not a fan of Prison Break, but Stacked C'MON!! :mad:

    I'm willing to bet that this will be the last of AD forever.. I thought this was the best show on network TV over the last 5+ years..

    I am not lying when I say this...I feel like crying. Arrested Development may be my favorite show of all-time.

    my favorite show. monday is a horrible slot. it should have been sunday, after all the cartoons - the show's target audience is the same people who watch king of the hill - simpsons - family guy - american dad...

    some shows are just too smart for t.v.

    Go rent the first two seasons. I think you'd like it.

    I almost started a thread about the twist at the end of the last episode. Mr. F. That's hilarious.

    Fox's target demographic is more interested in Pamela Anderson's assets than smart quirky comedy.

    Arrested D is too smart for its own good.

    It's not like Fox has a history of canceling great shows or anything.

    Not really a surprise. The show only drew 4 million viewers last week. It's a good show but it couldn't find an audience after 3 years unfortunately.

    Arrested Development is the best show on TV, and has been since it came on the air. I don't know why it doesn't get better ratings.
