The Series Had A Long Standing History With Netflix
Netflix
Netflix decided to revive the show for two more seasons in 2011. The streaming platform partnered with 20th Century Fox Television and Imagine Entertainment to produce season 4 and 5. The fourth season was aired on 2013 and the final season was aired in two parts, episodes 1 to 8 were released on May 29, 2018 and episodes 9 to 16 were released on March 15, 2019. Netflix then acquired a non-exclusive right to the first three seasons and the series has been available on Netflix since then. Fans can still watch seasons 1 to 3 on Hulu.
Arrested Development has had a long-standing history with Netflix. The Emmy winning series that was created by Mitchell Hurwitz has been among Netflix’s original line-up for almost a decade. No word yet on the potential renewal of rights, however this seems unlikely as the series has already departed the platform in some regions. Arrested Development has been removed from regions like Netflix Australia since 2021.
Arrested Development synopsis reads: “Level-headed son Michael Bluth takes over family affairs after his father is imprisoned. But the rest of his spoiled, dysfunctional family are making his job unbearable.”
