wow. The show was repeatedly moved around the schedule, never got advertised, and would get routinely pre-empted. And it didn't deliver ratings? Shocking. Another awful decision by Fox. Maybe they'll throw on another dumbass reality show that I won't watch.
Please don't Cancel this show! It's the Funniest and most intelligent show on TV now! If you think the ratings are bad or whatever, give it a better time slot! or Market it better I dunno! But there is no show out there this good!
You cannot cancel this show, Fox. If you do, it's pretty much a guarantee that you'll have to bring it back, due to fan outrage, a la Family Guy. Do you want that on your record twice? What do you call a network that cancels one of the most acclaimed shows ever aired? Moronic.
You're canceling the show because of the lack of viewers, but what about the viewers like me, who are loyal fans of Arrested Development? Who look forward to it every Monday night? It is unfair that we will be left with shows like Prison Break or Wife Swap when all we want is intelligent comedy like Arrested Development.
Screw those Nielson boxes, everyone I know in college watches Arrested Development, and every one I've shown Arrested Development too enjoys it so much they could kiss it on the *beep*.
Nothing is more fun or fresh than Arrested Development. The fact that FOX cancelled it makes me sad and I don't think that television will ever be the same. Please bring it back!
Please bring back Arrested Development. Sod the ratings, doesn't it matter to you that if you cancel it you will not have ANY good shows on your channel any more?
There are few things in life that bring me the joy week in and week out that "Arrested Develpment" does... Please dont take my joy away!!!! And if you must, may someone in TVLAND have the brains to pick it up!!!
Where else are you going to get Emmys and prestige Fox? And yet you keep That 70's Show on for the umpteenth year, far outside of its creative zenith, even after its two stars have left it. What the hell? Then again, I suppose I shouldn't expect much from the newtowk that swiftly cancelled Andy Richter Controls the Universe, Firefly, Family Guy, Undeclared, Wonderfalls, Futurama, Titus...
Being that the show is intelligent and hilarious at the same time, it's no wonder that FOX had to cancel it. FOX shows represent all that AD isn't. To cancel this show would only show more proof of their idiocy. This show is too good to be on a station like FOX. Let's hope an intelligent exec at some better station picks it up.
This is the worst move ever! To have created a show of this intelligence and then to take it away is Truly FOX worthy, remember family guy...we all know how that turned out.
This show was pure genius. Seinfeld wasn't as good as this during its first 3 seasons. NBC stuck with it and the show skyrocketed to become the best comedy ever.
You cancel Arrested Development (BRILLIANT, creative, smart, hysterical show), but you order a FULL SEASON of the mindless drivel that is The War At Home. Way to go, FOX! If you're going to cancel a show due to it's lackluster ratings, why don't you try MARKETING IT PROPERLY and not constantly changing it's time slot first?
You've made a huge mistake.
Fox is quickly becomming the laughing stock of the television community... but hey, at least "Super Nanny" and "Wife Swap" still have their time slots, huh?... ridiculous.
I feel sick to my stomach as I pound these letters out on the keyboard. The AD is the funniest, more clever TV show I've ever seen. I have to tape it so I can watch it three more times following each new episode. Note To FOX: If a show needs a laugh track to tell you what parts are funny, then they aren't funny
Fox kills ALL good shows. Please don't do to AD what you did to Firefly, Tru Calling, countless others. And yet you're still airing STACKED??!? How do you people sleep at night?
Please do not cancel the most brilliant sitcom on TV! With each episode, I am amazed at the levels of detail that the cast and crew put into 22 minutes! This show renewed my faith in TV. As GOB would say, FOX - "You've made a huge mistake!"
Don't do this!! AD is the best thing on tv since Seinfeld. I finally feel like the hole that show left has been filled. Remember when Seinfeld had horrible ratings? 'Nuff said. Please be as smart as this show and DON'T CANCEL IT FOR GOOD!
This is easily the funniest show on Fox and arguably the most intelligent comedy on TV today. Canceling proves just how much your corpration is commited, not to the quality of the programing you provide, but to the amount of money you make. Please, ditch Stacked and save Arrested Development.
I got an idea for what you can do, why don't you ****in' fire your complete marketing team, alright, get a new one in there that knows how to market a show that won 12 muther****ing Emmys, Golden Globes, SAG awards, WGA awards, DGA awards, Producers' Guild's awards, critics' top-ten lists, you know, if you can ****in', if you can't market that kind of show, and get better ratings, then maybe the problem doesn't lie here...maybe it lies with Marketing. Good night.
Fox, Why do you only cancel good shows. First Wonderfalls, and now this. I have an idea. You can cancel bad shows like American Dad to keep the award winning show that is quite possible the best program on TV.
I heard they cut it down to 13 episodes for the 3rd season, this is such buII**** come on fox u bast@rds! Stacked?? Who are u kidding, the whole show is about a girls boobs, terrible. I will fist fight robert murdoch if this show is cancelled
Please, PLEASE, shop this show around once it gets cancelled. Considering its DVD sales, viewers would be more than willing to switch over to a cable network.
Please, please, please don't cancel--this is the ONLY scheduled situational comedy on network television I watch--the show is brilliant, brilliant I say!
Like David Cross said, the failure of "Arrested Development" has nothing to do with the show itself. It's FOX's ****ing horrible marketing squad. Please, you've got something unique and beautiful on your hands here and it would be a total shame to throw it all away. If for nothing else, keep it so the critics will appreciate FOX a little more, which certainly won't be coming as a result of such ****ty programming as "Stacked" and "Trading Spouses". Please, FOX, do the right thing.
There is no way you can really cancel this show and allow Stacked to stay on the air is there?
Arrested Development is the smartest and funniest comedy on the air right now. Maybe if you actually promoted it as much as some of your other shows or actually thought to give the show a decent time slot it would have a fighting chance. Instead you treat it as an award winning show that you WANT to fail.
