[QUOTE="GrayLinnorm, post: 2722018, member: 31666"] Fox isn't doing its fans any favors by making them wait a whole month for new episodes, then not run any more after only one week. Fox really, really, really, really needs to ditch the baseball playoffs, which have done more harm than good. They started The Simpsons earlier than they have in years, and they STILL couldn't put the Halloween episode on Halloween (MR N is right). And why couldn't Fox put Arrested Development on Halloween when baseball season was over? I really don't think Fox is doing as much as it can to support Arrested Development. If they're pulling the show because it's hurting their precious Prison Break, why don't they just switch time slots? Who wants to watch reruns during a sweeps month anyway? (I shouldn't be too hard on Prison Break as it will be gone at the end of this month --- another victim of Fox's stupidity.) I'll bet Arrested Development could get the ratings The War At Home is getting if it was between the The Simpsons and Family Guy. Too bad the second season was unceremonially cut short before Family Guy returned (And I don't think The War At Home would get a googolth of its ratings if it had to stand by itself). They could have tried running Arrested Development after American Idol but they didn't. They could have started it on September 12, before the rest of its competition, but they didn't. The sad part is that someone will see Arrested Devolpment on DVD and say "Why can't more sitcoms be this funny?" I just hope the last episode will give a final FU to Fox (remember when Michael complained about a customer who cut an order of 22 houses to 18?) [/QUOTE]
