Ghost Whisperer, E-Ring, Freddie, Prison Break, Stacked...all of these shows are still on the air and yet AD is getting cancelled. There really is no god
this show deserves to remain in production. looking at the Fox lineup as a whole I don't see how it can be thought otherwise. What don't the FOX executives get about this show?
this is an outrage, aarrested development is by far the funniest thing to happen to television in years....the fact that fox is even thinking about pulling it shows that all they care about is money, and not quality programming!
I love the show, shame on you for not promoting it and moving it to Monday. Move it back to Sunday after the Simpsons. I turn off my TV when War at Home comes on. Save Arrested Development!
If FOX cancels Arrested Development, I will have no further faith in that network and will boycott it until World War III or the next Civil War in the United States (give or take 10-15 years)
Please Fox don't let this show die, you'll be making the same mistake that you did with Family Guy. Start airing reruns on F/X or Comedy Central and people will begin to watch the new episodes. I loaned 5 friends the DVDs of the first season and all 5 became loyal AD viewers. This show must stay on or is your boardroom filled with MR F's?
Please keep the funniest, best written comedy on the air. You have so many hours of unmitigated crap on your network, please keep one of the best shows you've ever had on the air.
Is this considered a rerun? Here I am again signing a petition to inform Fox that there are people who not only appreciate genuine writing like "Arrested Development" but without it, would not be watching your station. If I want more reality, I'll turn off the TV.
Fox, how many times do you guys have to do this before you learn. Don't make the same mistake you made with Family Guy. Keep this amazing show on the air.
Why would you shelve Arrested Development to promote the horrible plot-hole-laden pile of dung called "Prison Break"? Perhaps if the show weren't in the same time slot as Monday Night Football, it would get better ratings. WISE UP FOX!!
Please don't cancel Arrested Development. It is by far the most intelligent comedy on TV today. I was hoping for this show to be on for at least 10 more seasons. I really believe that this show could have been a classic.
Thank you,
William Adams
For the life of me I cannot believe a network could be so dumb as to promote crappy / dying shows like "Stacked" of "That 70s Show" and not only fail to promote the best thing on television but switch the timeslot around so nobody can find it. Way to go, FOX. You've done it again.
The sitcom is a dying breed.
"Arrested Development" is one of the last vestiges of a well-written, masterfully-plotted, and superbly-executed 'situational comedy', wherein the situations are nearly as absurd as the characters. Absurdity has a role in society, as much as piety or honour; it is time-honoured, it is fraught with tradition, and unfortunately, it is scarcely recognised. "Arrested Development" is one of the few shows that champions quick-witted absurdity in a way that is as disingenuous as it is corrosive, flabbergasting, a shock to the senses (cerebral or otherwise).
We need this, we truly do.
Damn you FOX! How could you? The best show on tv axed? Is ratings more important than quality? I hate you. I pray a smart network picks them up and rubs it in your faces as they continue to win multiple Emmy awards. You eggheads suck.
I mostly watch show on HBO and Comedy Central but have found Arrested Development to be as funny as any show on those channels and has brought me back to Reguler Network TV. It would be a shame and basically just wrong to end this show before it's time. Fox needs to promote this show more and stop moving it around!
This is the funniest show since Seinfeld without a doubt. I hope a network picks it up and gives it a chance (read: airs it on a night other than Monday)... FOX is making the same mistake they did with Family guy and now is the chance for another network to make a HUGE gain on it, unless FOX wises up
Get your heads out of your @sses. You're always moving your shows around and you expect people to work around your schedule. People like consistency and you are making many enemies by being inconsistent. Now you're about to pull the plug on one of FOX's best shows ever. On second thought, let it go, let another network pick it up, market it better, and create the ratings the show deserves. --STEVE HOLT!!!!
You guys do nothing for this show and you expect it to do good? This show has proven that it is funny. All it needs is some help. How do you thik Lost got most of its viewers? I cant watch ABC more than 5 minutes without seeing an ad for Lost. Instead I see ads for The Simpsons, and the War at Home. You cant expect any show to do well if you dont get out there and at least try to advertise it.
Fox, what will AD be replaced by? Unless you have something with a built in base, what is the reason for the move? Please don't take AD off the air. It is a truly funny show with a great cast.
Fox secures one of the best shows on television and now they want to cancel it. I see no logic in this. Unless the networks goal is to drop a smartly written show and begin airing police chases and animal attacks again. I guess any hick can appreciate that.
Sometimes you just have to stick with something even if it costs money and doesn't make it. Like that brother of yours who smokes pot and plays guitar. He could one day be Eric Clapton. AD will pay off in spades. Just stop tinkering and let it do it's thing!
I thoroughly enjoy watching Arrested Development on your Australian subsidury each weeknight. Please keep it running as it is the only thing keeping me paying my subscription. :)
Cheers,

Hey Rupert,
I know somehwere within that soul lies the heart of a beating Aussie with that brilliant sense of humour... keep it on the air. It is the ****.
