There is so much dross on TV and whenever anything really good comes along it gets buried in ridiculous timeslots and then canned. Arrested Development is hilarious in lots of (good) ways, is clever and interesting to watch, why would anyone want to cancel this?
How do shows like According to Jim and Still Standing get the ratings they do? if you have an answer tell me. Why do endless reality shows get endless advitising? I dont know. There is still hope for Arrested Developement. Seinfeld had only average ratings in its first couple of seasons. I love the running gags in this show and if it gets canceled i pray to God that some other network picks it up
In a tv world today that is filled w/ ridiculous reality programs and dramas and sitcoms that have no depth, Arrested Development is atrue jpy for me. I appreciate the fact there is no laugh track, i am smart enough to know when to laugh. The writting is genious it is filled w/ many subtle jokes that are extremely funny and story lines and funn situations are not forced upon like they are trying to make me laugh w/out anything funny. I appreciate Arrested Development for its smart humor and I always seem to find myself on the ground laughing at least 5-8 times a show, while w/ other sitcoms i occasionally chuckle. Arrested Development is so funny that you forget to laugh at great jokes that would be the best joke on any other sitcom because the show is filled w/ so many great jokes. Not only is it the funniest show on television, it is also the best made show. Arrested Development is the one show i would want to have w/ me on a deserted island. If Arrested Development was taking off the air I think I might just curl up and cry for weeks maybe even months. Please keep this show, not just to make money, but keep it on to just say hey we want to bring you great television instead of crap, and eventually the ratings will go up.
Please, please trust us. We watch this show, and others will too. Just give it a chance to fight its way out from under the slimy log of reality tv show nightmares. Please reward intelligent TV viewers, just this once.
Please don't give up on the most innovative and intelligent series on television, Arrested Development. The ratings may be disappointing, but that is an indication of its unfortunate time slot, NOT the quality of the show. I just purchased season one on DVD and am getting all my friends interested in the series. Keep the show going.
Thanks,

I cannot imagine Arrested Devevelopment to be stopped.. It would be like losing close friends!
It would be so unfair for the hard work of the crew, the dialogues are so hilariously funny, and the scenarii are incredible ..
Arrested Development is the first cause EVER that has given me the urge to FIGHT for it. If I was billionaire, i would give a few millions for the show to go on. So sign this petition, GET ALL YOUR FRIENDS TO SIGN IT!!

This show recently began showing in Singapore and I've got to say that I absolutely love it! It's brilliant, it's hilarious and it's original. What more could you ask for? Please don't cancel the show!
Do Not Cancel the Best Show on TV! I dont understand why more people aren't watching this hilarious show now but they will eventually come around when they realize everything else on TV sucks.
I Love Jason Bateman and Will Arnett.This is the funniest cast ever put together.
Arrested is the best show on television. People don't give it a chance because of the way its filmed and no laugh track. They want boring old sitcoms. This is fresh, new, and exciting. It makes TV worth watching again!
Arrested Developmetn rocks out loud!!! Please dont pull the plug on this creative, laugh-out-loud gem!!! Best thing on tv!! Kudos to Fox for recognizing a winner!!
Arrested Development is the funniest and smartest show on t.v. right now. It's witty and clever. Ron, Brian, and
Mitch are geniuses. This show is AWESOME because it's not your typical "Friends" and "Fraiser". It's different and if you take it off the air, I will be forced to join the blue man support group. Please KEEP ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT ON!
This is the funniest show on American T.V. It is more clever than Seinfeld, but most people are too dumb to get the humor. Murdoch shouldn't touch this show.
Please, for the love of all things funny in this world, DO NOT CANCEL THIS SHOW!
My life will be an empty and shallow shell of what it was if I do not have this show each Sunday.
Fox blows, we all know that. Arrested Development is the greatest show on television, and the mere thought of them pulling the plug shows Fox's ignorance.
The good news is that if Fox does in fact pull the plug, I can almost guarantee that the show will have no problem finding a new channel to be aired off.
Why does fox take away all of the quality telivision and replace it with crap like "reality" shows, which aren't reality anyways? Arrested development is a gut busting hilarious high quality comedy and should stay on the air for a long time! And bring back andy rickter!
this is the funniest show i have ever seen. It is so well written and incredibly smart and witty. If Fox cancels this show they are the dumbest f**k's ever.
this is the BEST SHOW EVER!!! you cannot cancel it. it is literally the only tv show i watch now. i would boycott tv if it was canceled. why would you cancel this ingenious show? do you get off on being witholding?
This show rocks lets keep it so what u have to cancel a reality show but who cares no body even watches them also makes u guys seem desparate for rating
This show is brilliant; I always look forward to Sunday nights. It's sophisticated, yet funny, and is genuinely humorus. You rarely see that anymore.Keep it on the air!
This is the best show on TV and it should stay on air. Seinfeld had trouble with ratings for the 1st season but then it became the greatest show ever, and I believe the same will follow for Arrested Development
Almost every great show has needed time for people to discover it. Be patient and keep promoting it, because once you start watching this show your addicted.
Arrested Development is one of the highlights of my week. My friends love it, and I enjoy it immensly. The show is spreading all over my school! It's awsome!
This show renders most other sitcoms obsolete. The cast is brilliant, the writing and themes are edgy, and the flahsbacks and camera work are hilarious. Fox should do everything possible to preserve this gem.
I haven't missed an episode. The show is very funny and clever. The slot after the simpsons should help the show and 5 emmy's awards. there is no reason why this show should be struggling to stay on the air.
It's hilariously clever, intelligent, is well made and well cast... of course fox wants to dump it. This is one of the few good shows fox has done in years, please KEEP IT ON THE AIR. If you must get rid of something, please dump the reality TV trash that's only purpose seems to be to further contribute to the intellectual decline of this country.
I just bought thr first season on DVD!! Its wit and comedy is rarley matched ! Fox why not take the swan off the air evrybody hates it!
Everybody love Areested development
Wow, almost seven thousand signatures! That says something doesn't it? It's the best show on TV and the new season premier shows that it is going to stay that way.
