    It’s been heavily theorized that arrested development what have been a wild success now vs when it came out. When it was released it was the early 00s and most average TV watchers were into the casual sitcom. They did not have interest in watching each episode in order with a long running narrative and jokes that called back several episodes to get.

    However that’s where TV went. Now most of our shows follow that format, we enjoy it more. I think now they could have been successful
