Arrested Development is one of the only shows I watch on television. Please do not take away what is the most intelligent humor that is available to us these days.
This is one of the few SMART comedies left. And it is one of the few things my father and I actually agree on... I have the DVDs and each episode only gets funnier each time they are watched. Only such shows like Seinfeld have been able to make me laugh continually.

Every, and I do mean every show that I find smart, funny interesting, and full of good writing gets canceled. Please don't pander to the stupid and the lazy. Give the rest of us back our show!
I discovered AD pretty late, in the middle of the second season, but since then I have been an avid viewer and fan. AD has grown to be oneof my favorite shows on television right not. It is intelligent and witty, something a quality few shows have to offer. If this show goes off the air, I will be extremely disappointed. We do not need more shows like "Stacked" on TV, when we can have the amzing comedy that is Arrested Development.
original. funny. hilarious. side splitting. in a sea of mudane and boring sitcoms this one stands out. to give it the axe would be a crime to television
When it first popped up out of nowhere, I was amazed at the quality of the cast, the performances and, most of all, the writing. Only Curb comes anywhere near it at the moment. And they want to drop it? The smartest, funniest comedy they've had since, well, Futurama. Chucked around the schedules like, well, Futurama. Whoever made the decision to drop AD should be ashamed of themselves.
Keep it going. COME ON!
Aaah!!!! Why oh why is one of the best and funniest show that ever came on television ending? It's smart and witty and absolutely original. All these other shows cannot even compare and are really boring! Darn it! And the plot was getting juicy too! The blame should be on the lack of advertising and marketing of this show. I mean come on, before Desperate Housewives ever came on, the ads on that show was huge, and made you curious as to what it was about, but "Arrested" didn't get much. I was just lucky enough to stumble upon it while switching channels one day. And why would these networks rely on the Nelson Ratings when that stupid box doesn't even represent all of the viewers. Do I have that box? NO! And I watch the show. If Fox isn't smart enough to know that there are viewers out there who aren't part of the Nelson Ratings and love "Arrested Development" then I hope some other network would have the intelligence to take on this show!
I can not believe that this show could be cancelled, since the only thing it needs to garner a bigger audience is for the network to actually advertise it. Every person I have loaned my DVDs to has become an AD junkie - unfortunately they can never find it on the schedule. Please keep this show on the air. Give it a chance by actually airing episodes on a regular basis, uninterrupted by reruns of other FOX programming or endless sporting events. Give this show a chance to prove itself without being constantly undermined. It took several years for Seinfeld to catch on. AD has this potential. SAVE THIS SHOW!
When you move shows around as you have, you're sabotaging them. Then you say it's the show's fault. It took Mash and Seinfeld a number of seasons before they caught on. Because the writing was so brilliant they bacame a goldmine to their networks. Arrested Devolopment is in the same position with great writing and a superb cast.
FOX Network, here is some advice - Get rid of sh*tty shows like The War at Home and keep Arrested Development on the air. Who's the genius who made this f*ckin decision to axe Arrested Development? Fre that moron(s) and use thier salary to keep Arrested Development on the air.
One of the most clever and entertaining things on TV. Worth watching multiple times just to pick up things you I might have missed. Wouldn't it be perfect for syndication once there's enough episodes? Keep this on, and get rid of all those inane reality shows.
Do not cancel Arrested Development! This comedy is what Fox is all about. It's edgy. The show has smashed all of the other networks' canned sitcom formulas (aka Everybody Loves Raymond). This show will have a following for years to come. Man, this sucks... at least put it on FX and rerun it for another decade. Maybe by then I will have made all the connections that makes this show so brilliant.
Tony Kitzky - faithful AD fan!
I watch at least one episode a day. So, ya see, I need this show to stay on, to keep my sanity. FOX has some funny shows, but arrested development is clearly the most clever and funny show on earth.
Fox why must your destroy everything good you have going. First you try to get rid of Family Guy, then you cancel My Big Fat Obnoxious Boss, and now the final straw you cancel my favorite show. Who ever runs that stations must also be a writer for the show "War at Home" and by that I mean a god damn idiot.
