'Arrested Development' officially back! Revived series coming to Netflix

Done deal: Netflix is bringing back cult classic Arrested Development.

The Bluth family?s new comedy adventures will be available exclusively through the video service starting in the first half of 2013. Why, that?s like getting unlimited juice.

?After a long hiatus, I?m dying to finally get back to the narrator?s microphone,? said executive producer and series narrator Ron Howard. ?Of all the projects we?ve been involved with over the years, we probably get more questions about Mitch Hurtwitz?s brilliant Arrested Development than any other ? everyone, ourselves included, seems to feel like the Bluths left the party a bit too soon. Bringing a series back from cancellation almost never happens, but then, Arrested always was about as unconventional as they get, so it seems totally appropriate that this show that broke the mold is smashing it to pieces once again.?

Netflix has been muscling into the ?TV? space this past year, also picking up a BBC drama for 2012 called House of Cards. For the Arrested Development deal, the DVD delivery and video streaming service bested another top bidder, Showtime, in contention for the acclaimed series, with Hulu also rumored to have been in the running.

Twentieth Century Fox Television and Imagine Television will produce the new episodes of the show. How many episodes? That?s not been announced yet.

Will all the cast members return? That?s not been announced either ? no contracts have been finalized, we?re told. But certainly previous statements by the producers and cast indicate that everybody is, in theory, on board.

Will there still be the long-rumored movie? Also unclear. But if you?re getting the show back, and on service like Netflix that won?t presumably have any content restrictions anyway (unlike during the show?s original three-season run on Fox) ? do we even need a movie?

    • Nvidia GeForce NOW gains support for seven more games as discounts continue

      Nvidia GeForce NOW gains support for seven more games as discounts continue by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe There's a brand-new update rolling out to Nvidia's GeForce NOW streaming service, and like every week, that means more games have received support on the platform. This week's drop has additions like Aphelion and Pro Cycling Manager 26 attached to it. Don't forget that the GeForce NOW summer sale is still active too. This limited-time offer drops the 12-month Performance membership from $99.99 to $64.99, saving members $35. At the same time, the 12-month Ultimate membership is currently going for $129.99, dropping the price by $70 from the original $199.99. Moreover, Nvidia reiterated that support for GOG single sign-in and game library is incoming this summer, joining stores like Steam, Ubisoft Connect, Battle.net, and Xbox. "Connect supported game store accounts and stream titles with GeForce RTX power. Games that include cloud-save functionality help keep progress intact across devices," added the company. "Start a game on one screen, pick up where playtime left off on another, and spend less time managing installs and storage space." Here are the games joining GeForce NOW's supported list this week: Embers of the Uncrowned Demo (New release on Steam, available 13) Pro Cycling Manager 26 (New release on Steam, available June 15) Aphelion (Steam) Citizen Sleeper (Epic Game Store, Free from June 18-25) Megastore Simulator (Steam) OPERATOR (Steam) Super Meat Boy 3D (Xbox, available on Game Pass) Keep in mind that, unlike subscription services like Game Pass or EA Play, a copy of a game must be owned by the GeForce NOW member (or at least have a license via PC Game Pass) to start playing via Nvidia's cloud servers. There is also a limit to how many hours subscribers can use the service per month, with extra time being purchasable in chunks.
