The real TV event tomorrow night

NBC would have you believe the biggest TV event of the week is the opening ceremony of the Olympics.

But there are some of us out there who know what the real big TV event is tomorrow evening. FOX will air the final four new episodes of Arrested Development from 7-9 p.m. central time. Then as soon as you're done laughing one last time with the Bluth family, you can flip on over and catch the new Battlestar Galactica on SciFi.

Hopefully this won't be the last we see of Arrested Development. If the TV fates smile upon us, the long-rumored jump to Showtime may be announced soon after the series ends its run on FOX.

That only does you any good if you get showtime. :P

Or if you know someone who gets Showtime...


Do you really think it's making the jump to Showtime? I read somewhere that Hurwitz is done with the show.

I keep hearing rumors that the deal is contingent on FOX cancelling the show...and they've not officially done that yet...

Tim has this theory, which is either borne from wishful thinking or just damned clever.

He thinks that the entire "we're gonna cancel the show" is just an elaborate ruse/marketing scam.

I'd love to think that he's right. How much of a riot would it be to tune in tomorrow night, sit through the two hours and have a "gotcha" moment at the end?

I mean we knew the had to take a break for Jason Bateman's throat surgery anyway. What a perfect scenario to totally snark the public and the press?!

Yeah, I admit it's a boatload of wishful thinking, but it makes me happy.

Well, it could be since FOX is not letting the final ep out for preview.....

You all are making me get my hopes up. I hope and, if it's not too sacriligous, pray that it stays on the air somewhere!
