MODERATORS
Arrested Development struggled from the serial storyline in a 30 minute sitcom slot. Fox didn’t like the show and moved its airtime around, making its viewership numbers even worse.
If it had been made in the streaming era, we would have gotten six seasons and a movie
I swear Fox used to just kill shows for fun. Either that or their execs were just the emptiest suit dummies to ever work in television.
Always pour one out for Firefly
When season 4 was released, exclusively on Netflix, each episode was plagued with minutes of recap footage that made no sense in a streaming series. Then the season was recut into the "Fateful Consequences" version that was supposed to remedy that, but it turned out (arguably) even worse.
The writing on this show was too damned good. Such a great series.
