Fox cancels Arrested Development because of poor ratings and now is showing a full hour of the show. Am I missing something? Oh to be a network executive for a day just to see what they are thinking would be great.
Prime Picks
Arrested Development (FOX): Michael is worried when he finds out that Lucille is dating the warden of the prison and George Sr. has know idea.
