Break out the Cornballer! "Arrested Development" will re-run on HDNet!
Cuban's Coups Enrich Roster
Canceled 'Arrested Development' Heading for HDNet
By James Hibberd
Mark Cuban's surprise deal to make his niche network HDNet Dan Rather's new home wasn't the only big television coup the billionaire had up his sleeve last week.
Mr. Cuban, chairman and president of HDNet, is close to acquiring all three seasons of the critically acclaimed Fox comedy "Arrested Development" from Twentieth Television, sources said.
The series, which was shot in high definition, will join a roster of recently canceled prime-time series on HDNet's schedule. Mr. Cuban acquired former CBS drama "Joan of Arcadia" and former Showtime series "Dead Like Me" in April.
The deal for "Arrested Development" was being completed last week, days after Mr. Cuban stole the spotlight from exponentially bigger networks at the Television Critics Association's semi-annual cable press tour with an announcement that veteran former CBS newsman Mr. Rather will join HDNet, which is available in about 3 million homes. (Fully distributed cable networks are available in more than 90 million homes.)

That is true. I have about seven or so of the epidsodes on my DVR, so even though they are in HD, I'll be glad to be able to dump them in August to free up some room. Plus, it's very difficult to stop and start the recording on my DVR to edit out the commercials.
But, that is good news that it will be re-run, period.
