Dan Harmon loses his Community

20 May 2012 11:30 PM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »

Commenting on the critics with Simon Columb...

Russ Fischer for \Film covers the latest, depressing, news regarding Community:

"When Community was renewed for a short 13-episode fourth season earlier this week, it looked like creator/showrunner Dan Harmon might not be back for the show’s continuation. There was talk that he would be on board as a consultant at least, but tonight word came down that Harmon has been replaced as showrunner, and any involvement with the show seems doubtful at this point. The new exec producer/showrunners will be David Guarascio and Moses Port, who previously worked on Happy Endings, Aliens in America and, er, Just Shoot Me. (At least that had some great David Cross moments, right? Looking for the silver lining here.)"

What a damn shame. Dan Harmon himself wrote a detailed blog post explaining what had happened - and »

The First Visual Proof That New Arrested Development Is Actually Happening

13 May 2012 6:24 PM, PDT | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »

Ever since Fox canceled Arrested Development in 2006, rumors — and sometimes promises — of the sitcom’s return have persisted. There was a failed push to transfer the series to Showtime, followed by five years of on-again, off-again, maybe-back-on-again plans for a movie about the Bluth family. By the time Netflix announced a deal last fall to produce a fourth season of the show to debut in early 2013, fans had earned the right to be skeptical, and not even the sight of the reunited cast at April’s National Association of Broadcasters convention in Las Vegas seemed like definitive proof that new episodes are really, really under way.So, how about this: We obtained a photo, taken at 8 p.m. on Tuesday, May 7, above a sound stage on a studio lot in Culver City, of Arrested Development creator Mitch Hurwitz hard at work on the show’s revival.

Tony Hale Talks 'Arrested' & 'Veep'

28 April 2012 9:47 AM, PDT | TheInsider.com | See recent The Insider news »

Fans were elated by news that fresh installments of Arrested Development would finally see the light of day in 2013 -- but before Tony Hale slips back into Buster Bluth's prosthetic "monster" hand, he's trying out something even scarier: politics.

As one of the stars of HBO's sensational new series Veep, Tony gives audiences a behind-the-scenes look at life in the White House as he plays Gary Walsh, personal aide to Vice President Selina Meyer (Julia Louis-Dreyfus). And given the jangled nerves and unyielding desire to please everyone, you could say that Buster and Gary are sort of like long lost hermanos.

Insider.com: What attracted you to Veep?

Tony Hale: In addition to the fact that I'm always thankful for jobs, a big thing for me was that we were making this show in an election year. There's so much posturing and a lot of great soundbites. I'm very intrigued by the fact that these people »

Arrested Development: Hurwitz Up for Seasons Five and Six

19 April 2012 10:54 AM, PDT | TVSeriesFinale.com | See recent TVSeriesFinale news »

Production on the fourth season of (previously cancelled) sitcom Arrested Development is expected to get underway this summer. You can expect Netflix to release the entire season at once, "sometime next year." The video subscription service made the announcement in Las Vegas on Tuesday evening at an Nab event.

Arrested Development creator Mitchell Hurwitz originally said that each of the 10 episodes would revolve around catching up with individual characters and build towards the planned feature film.

Now, he says that episodes will feel a lot more like the original show because he wants to take advantage of all of the new installments being released at once. Hurwitz said, "There's going to be some mystery sprinkled throughout this (but) instead of watching one a week and try to get ahead of it, the hope is (fans) will watch them all together and then go »

'Arrested Development': Five Things We Know About Season Four

19 April 2012 8:58 AM, PDT | MTV Movies Blog | See recent MTV Movies Blog news »

The new "Arrested Development" series is still coming, but now we've learned that a couple of major changes to what we heard about the project in October are going to be taking place.

Development has been arrested for the past few years, but it seemed like the show was finally going to be going full steam ahead when Netflix picked up its fourth season back in November. Now scripts are being written for the new episodes, and series creator Mitch Hurwitz revealed at the National Association of Broadcasters convention in Las Vegas that filming should begin over the summer.

There have been some changes to the original plan, however. Most of them are good, though we're sure some die hard fans will find something to blue themselves over here. Honestly, we don't care what form it takes, because we'll just be happy to have a new season of "Arrested Development »

Netflix Shares Big Plan For 'Arrested Development' Release

19 April 2012 7:57 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Ladies and gentlemen, make sure you have a sick day to spare in 2013, because it looks like the new season of "Arrested Development" -- yes, all ten episodes -- are going to premiere all at once next year on Netflix.

Yes, there are going to be a lot of A.D. fanboys and fangirls calling in sick with Tba (or perhaps Graft vs. Host?) when the cult favorite comes out. Netflix Chief Content Officer Ted Sarandos confirmed the plan to release all ten episodes of the fourth season of "Arrested Development" at a National Association of Broadcasters event in Las Vegas.

Vulture reported on the plans and also added that "Arrested" creator Mitch Hurwitz is open to doing a season 5 and season 6 of the show on Netflix and that Bob Loblaw, the attorney-at-law with the eponymous law blog, will make an appearance in season 4.

Netflix To Stream All 10 New Episodes Of ‘Arrested Development’ At Once: Report

18 April 2012 9:25 PM, PDT | Deadline TV | See recent Deadline TV news »

When Netflix gets around to filming new episodes of Arrested Development — show creator Mitch Hurwitz says production will begin this summer — the streaming video service will release all 10 new segments at once, according to a report on Mashable. The new episodes will be released “sometime next year,” Netflix said last night at Nab in Las Vegas. The service is bringing back the Fox-Imagine series that was canceled in 2006 because of poor ratings, but the intense loyalty of the show’s fans convinced Hurwitz and Netflix it was worth another shot. New episodes will focus on a single individual character, Hurwitz told the audience, and would be similar to those from the past. He didn’t offer specifics about storyline. Netflix originally planned to present the show to subscribers during the first half of 2013. The timing is less certain now. Hurwitz also expressed hope it might be possible to produce an »

Great News for Netflix's Arrested Development Season 4!

18 April 2012 5:01 PM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »

Just in case you thought the news of Arrested Development getting a fourth season and a movie was a dream, I just wanted to reassure you that it's really happening. Last year Netflix announced that they would air 10 new episodes of a fourth season that would lead up to a feature film. 

The series-creator Mitch Hurwitz recently appeared at a Netflix-sponsored event in Las Vegas with several of the cast members, and he gave an update on what the current plan is for season four. He said that the production is set to begin this summer, and that the entire fourth season will premiere together on a single day sometime next year! So you'll be able to watch the whole fourth season in one sitting if you wanted to, and who wouldn't want to do that?! It's so cool that they've decided to released the series like that.

In the original plan for the series, »

How the Return of Arrested Development Will Rewrite the New Rules of TV Watching

18 April 2012 11:15 AM, PDT | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »

The landscape of television is changing, and for proof, you have to look no further than the revival of Arrested Development on Netflix, where creator Mitch Hurwitz has reunited the original cast to produce a passel of new episodes coming next year: Suddenly, a show that was incredibly low-rated on Fox is being touted as a game-changer for an upstart streaming-video company. It's a move that will surely have a ripple effect on TV development, but the audience at home is going to find their viewing habits tested, too, since Netflix head Ted Sarandos announced yesterday that the ten new episodes of Arrested Development will all premiere on a single day (video now available here). How will recap culture cope? Here are four of the open questions raised by the announcement.Should you watch all the episodes in one sitting?Arrested Development's most avid superfans have been waiting for »

'Arrested Development' Season 4: Netflix releasing all 10 episodes at once next year

18 April 2012 10:49 AM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »

Pretty much everything about the revival of "Arrested Development" as a TV series has been unconventional, and Netflix's plan for rolling out new episodes is following suit.

At an appearance Tuesday (April 17) with show creator Mitch Hurwitz and several cast members at the National Association of Broadcasters convention in Las Vegas, Netflix chief content officer Ted Sarandos said all 10 episodes of "Arrested's" fourth season will debut on the same day next year (just which day is yet to be determined). Production is scheduled to begin in the summer.

Hurwitz also told the crowd that the decision to release the show that way changed his approach to it. He had been thinking of focusing each episode on a single character, but it's now "becoming more like the old show again," he says.

"There's going to be some mystery sprinkled throughout this [but] instead of watching one a week and try to get ahead of it, »

Netflix To Unveil New Episodes Of 'Arrested Development' All At The Same Time In 2013; Bob Loblaw Is Returning

18 April 2012 9:59 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »

Come on! We could listen to Gob say that all day and after a neverending string of rumors, updates and promises, the fourth season of "Arrested Development" is actually happening and gearing up to shoot this summer. After the news broke that this was indeed in the works last fall, Netflix moved quickly and snapped up the rights to the show, a major coup for the rental service who are dipping their toes in the waters of broadcasting. And now, more good news. Instead of parcelling out the ten new episodes in 2013 in a weekly format spreading out over a couple of months -- we're going to be getting them all at once. The plan is drop all the shows on a single day sometime next year. Awesome.

Arrested Development Season 4 to Premiere as 10-Episode Release

18 April 2012 9:38 AM, PDT | TVfanatic | See recent TVfanatic news »

Arrested Development creator Mitch Hurwitz appeared yesterday at the Netflix-sponsored National Association of Broadcasters event in Las Vegas and offered an update on season four of his beloved sitcom.

Among the tidbits Hurwitz teased/explained:

All 10 episodes of season four will be released on the same day, some time in 2013. Due to this plan, changes will likely be made to the original concept of each new episode only bringing fans up to speed on one character at a time. "That is now kind of evolving into becoming more like the old show again," Hurwitz told reporters. Production will begin this summer. Hurwitz is open to to airing further seasons in this format: "We would love this to be the first first of many visits." Bob Loblaw will return!
