It's here. New "Arrested Development" has arrived. The countdown to May 26 has begun. After seven years without the cult classic series, the prospect of new episodes has felt like a dream. Even after Netflix announced that it would release all 15 new episodes simultaneously on its Watch Instantly channel, it still seemed too good to be true, until now. Entertainment Weekly has unveiled an exclusive, never-before-seen clip from season four of "Arrested Development."
The scene was originally screened during panels at the Television Critics Association Winter Press Tour and SXSW. It's is merely an outtake from the new season, only a portion of which will be featured in season four, however it still offers fans a glimpse of what they can expect. Although the show will stick close to its roots, fans have feared that it may feel a bit off kilter now that the stars are seven years older. Fortunately, the clip proves that not much has changed.
The outtake features Buster (Tony Hale) and Lucille (Jessica Walter) as they take their relationship to the next level. Diehards can only imagine what that entails, as their relationship in previous seasons has been... odd, for lack of a better word. Their mutually dependent relationship has reached a new level of pathetic.
Season four of "Arrested Development" will air May 26. All 15 brand new episodes will be released at the same time, allowing fans to binge watch as they please. In a recent interview, David Cross, who plays the ambiguously gay wannabe actor, joked that the grid would likely crash due to the enormous amount of traffic Netflix is bound to receive on May 26.
Rumors of a subsequent "Arrested Development" film have indicated that is there is a movie on the way, we may have to wait a couple years until it hits theaters. In the meantime, we'll have plenty of time to watch, and rewatch, and rewatch season four.
