 Arrested Development - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Arrested Development is a character-driven American comedy television series about a formerly wealthy, habitually dysfunctional family.
Due to the character's popularity while test-screenings of the pilot episode were going on, he was given a much bigger role, and is the only actor on the show to improvise a large portion of his dialogue.
Contrary to many sitcoms, which shoot in a multicamera setup with four or five cameras behind the fourth wall on a set, Arrested Development is shot in a single camera setup with several free moving camera operators which follow the actors around in a documentary style.

 I've made a huge mistake... (25 Best Arrested Development Moments)
Arrested Development, he seems to be the go-to guy for extreme physical comedy, and he’s great at it; his slipping on Lucille’s drink in “Ready, Aim, Marry Me” is the first time I’ve laughed at a pratfall in probably more than a decade.
Arrested Development never afforded viewers that same luxury, opting instead to set a joke up only to not reveal the punch line until sometimes upwards of several months later.
The characters are all animated enough to put most traditional cartoons to shame as it is, so when you throw them into a completely outlandish situation like this it only amplifies their personalities to the point where you'll apologize for lumping a show so good into a genre inhabited by such garbage.

 Arrested Development | PopMatters Television Review
Arrested Development truly is one of the best shows, new or otherwise, of the year: a laugh-out-loud, deeply quirky, and audacious series that has its own wacky agenda and dares to be delightfully different.
Arrested Development shows how, even as adults, we're defined by our families, no matter how far away we move or how screwy they may be.
Arrested is a more original series, satirizing both the traditional family unit and the lifestyles of the rich and demented, two aspects that put it in the same league as the classic ABC sitcom Soap.

 Blogcritics.org: The Arrested Development Bluth Family Deserves Bin Laden
But that writing was devolving rapidly at Arrested Development this year, and it'd take a whole lot more than the unearned sense of smug superiority exhibited by Lucille Bluth and her admirers to draw an audience.
It was an explication of the negativity of the underlying characters.

 Blogcritics.org: Can Arrested Develop An Audience?
I love Arrested Development: the particularity of its absurdity is sharp and richly detailed, rendering its satire on American values, the idle rich, the formerly idle rich, the formerly rich but still idle, and intra-family relationships telling as well as hilarious.
Thus the character of Buster (the priceless Tony Hale) is not only a weirdly coddled mama's boy; he also has a background in cartography, a skill that is suddenly called upon when the family finds itself trying to out-motor police boats.
Other than Scrubs and Arrested Development (shows as good as any on television), there is little intelligence to be found in network TV comedy.

The axe of cancellation dangled perilously over Arrested Development during its second season, but the award-winning comedy fought against fate to deliver a hilarious if scattershot 18 episodes (reduced from the original show order of 22), and stayed alive for the beginning of a third season.
Most likely, the creators and actors knew the clock was ticking down, so they didn't hesitate to throw their all into these manic, hilarious episodes, which have only the thinnest of plot arcs but an electrifying energy that makes them hard to resist.
Other show developments, though, were new and stunningly, uproariously bizarre: Buster (Tony Hale) joins the army, but later finds his hand bitten off by a seal (yes, a real seal), and Oscar (Jeffrey Tambor), the hippie brother of jailed George Sr.

 Get ready for an arresting Fox season
It's difficult to imagine a more redemptive moment on television this year: There was Mitchell Hurwitz, the guy who created "Arrested Development," and, by doing so, helped salvage the American sitcom.
But that night, when "Arrested Development" also won for best writing (Hurwitz again) and directing in a comedy series, it was hard not to think of a recurring joke from the series: "I've made a huge mistake."
Consider this: "Arrested Development," despite the kind of fawning prose that equaled the kind directed at "The Sopranos" in critical mass, ranked 108th last season and barely managed 6 million viewers an episode.

A peerless ensemble led by the brilliant Bateman (who ever knew he could be this good?), all the actors are pitch-perfect in their roles, delivering the dryly funny, sometimes absurdist dialogue with the speed and flair of classic farce.
When the head of the family George Bluth (Jeffrey Tambor) is arrested for securities fraud, the rest of the family are forced to give up their lavish bank accounts and greedy lifestyles.
Produced by acclaimed director Ron Howard, "Arrested Development" is the most hilarious well written family comedy of the year.

But in the last few months, as the country's legal system has tightened its grip on a host of corporate evildoers--Martha Stewart, Dennis Kozlowski, Arthur Fastow--the SEC has surfaced as a comic foil in the edgy Fox comedy Arrested Development.
Nailing down Arrested Development's premise in the first episode, in fact, was a loopy scene in which SEC operatives raided an aboard-yacht retirement party for the family patriarch, George Bluth Sr.
A deeply cynical vision undergirds Arrested Development, whose characters--with the exception of the well-intentioned Michael and his awkward son, George Michael (Michael Cera)--disgrace themselves spectacularly week after week.

 Something Old, Nothing New: The Non-Return of Arrested Development
So it looks like "Arrested Development" won't be coming back after all, or if it does, it'll have to be without its creator/showrunner Mitch Hurwitz and his second-in-command Jim Vallely:
The characters on "Arrested Development" are so tied into the fragmented style of the show that they probably wouldn't be of much interest if someone else were writing for them.
As for other shows that were heavily dependent on having the original showrunner stick around, think of "Moonlighting" and Glenn Gordon Caron (but don't think of the last season after he left) or any David E. Kelley quirkfest.
