It's real simple people. AD is not a show that you can just all the sudden start watching and get hooked. It's also features comedy that takes some actual thought at times. You put these things together and the show will never get good ratings. I think one more full season is a best case scenario.

I hope Arrested Development doesn't die mid-season. 
(Seriously, I would PAY to keep the show on the air - you hear me FOX? PAY CASH MONEY!)

I wonder this too. I will watch, or DVR Malcolm, skip KotH and watch Simpsons and AD - both usually live or with a 5-10 minute DVR gap to FF comercials.
