'Arrested Development' Creator Mitchell Hurwitz Dishes On New Netflix Eps

Now the story of a wealthy family who lost everything, and the streaming video giant who raised their beloved, departed FOX comedy from the grave. It's once more "Arrested Development".

That photo to the left? It's a lot like seeing the confirmed cover art for Guns N' Roses' Chinese Democracy. Think of it along the lines of seeing the first Duke Nukem Forever game-play footage. Imagine eventually seeing a tracklist for Dr. Dre's Detox.

It's seeing-is-believing truth that legend, rumor and myth shall manifest....only, one would hope not sucking nearly as hard as those first two examples and being far more confirmed than the last.

That is indeed the entire original "Arrested Development" cast backed by the Netflix flag at the National Association of Broadcasters convention in Las Vegas. With his show slated to air its first brand-new episodes exclusively via Netflix since its original 2006 cancellation, creator Mitchell Hurwitz talked up what will set this latest 10-episode run apart from the initial FOX run.

Hurwitz explained that the new episodes' setups will make the entire run worth a second look once all have been seen.

"We are embracing the fact that these episodes are being 'aired,' so to speak, at the same time. And it is changing our storytelling; we had a lot of secrets that we were planting in storytelling," Hurwitz claimed, citing the original run's storyline debuting Julia Louis-Dreyfus' "blind" lawyer that leaves Michael Bluth smitten - and conned. "Hopefully by the end of the episodes you will want to go back to the start and view it through new eyes.

Netflix executive Ted Sarandos and Hurwitz seem like they've embraced the chance to reinvent a series that already stood out from the pack in 2003 when it was born.

"The seeds for a Netflix reunion came from a simple party conversation with Ron Howard, that led to a meeting with Brian Grazer, which led to a meeting with Mitch Hurwitz, which led to a meeting with Gary Newman at FOX," Sarandos said. "It was clear that everybody wanted to come back; we just need to figure out how to make it work with everyone's incredibly busy schedules. We decided not to follow the conventional definition of a season; we would produce exactly how many episodes were needed to tell the story."
