Arrested Development hopefuls might want to make sure they are sitting down before they continue reading the rest of this post. Series creator Mitch Hurwitz has confirmed that he is parting ways with Arrested Development, as he feels that the show “has reached its creative end”. It seems a little hard to believe since the show has only lasted 3 seasons, but when you think about it, 3 seasons is pretty damn good for a show that was always on the verge of cancellation. So what this means is that the chances of Showtime picking up Arrested Development are now slim to none, as they were only interested in the series if Hurwitz was on board. Hurwitz did, however, hint to Variety that he would consider working as a consultant for the show, and that he is interested in making an Arrested Development feature film. Not that anyone has actually shown interest in such a thing at this point, but it sounds like he’s throwing out a line and hoping someone will bite. Considering the poor ratings the show had over the years, and the dense plotlines and layers of jokes, I question the appeal that the show would have as a movie.
