i AM GOING TO MISS THE bLUTHS.. THEY WERE SO FUNNY.. SUCH A great kooky show.  I swear, I have no idea why some shows get the axe and some just keep going  IE:  King of Queens!

Nope

Not to sound rude, but I found that show a bit overrated.

Arrested Development might not get cancelled.  Apparently producer Brian Grazer is shopping the sitcom around to other networks.  Just canse FOX no longer wants it, I am sure some other network will and actually put it in a good time slot so people can actually see it

Can't say I've really had the chance to properly watch it. The stupid networks always place potentially good shows on at some weird hour (11pm), and cancel them because (shock, horror!) they are rating low. All the while, shows like Survivor, The Apprentice and Supernanny get the good 7:30 or 8:30 spots.  >:(

Its okay.... I loved it though.. It so different u know?  Thanks for the info alos about the show being shopped around.  I hope they save it.. Cable would be cool but i doubt the actors would atke the pay cut they would have to take.

I don't think it's going to be saved.  It's too expensive (huge cast) to be shown without a big draw for the advertisers.

It's a riot to watch, lots of twists.  It's disappointing that shows like Freddie are even aired, let alone receive better ratings. I watched part of one episode of that a couple weeks ago.  It was a plot stolen straight from Three's Company (a show that was already a rip off of a British sitcom).  The networks don't air stuff unless it's safe and predictable, and can draw enough ratings to keep the advertisers happy.

We all know the ratings system is a huge farce (especially in this country) anyway.  ::)

It almost seems strange why FOX wants to cancel Arrested Development.  FOX is all about sitcoms about messed up families, which is what makes FOX a unique network
