It is definitely an understatement to say that the revival of "Arrested Development" for a fourth season is nothing short of a miracle. Upon the announcement, the cult Fox show has been dead for several years so it really was not surprising that devoted fans of the show were ecstatic to learn that the series would live to see another season. While followers of the show are already grateful for a fourth season, it seems like the good news surrounding the series does not end there.

"Arrested Development," which first aired in 2003, was initially an American television show that aired on Fox. It follows the lives of the dysfunctional Bluth family in the aftermath of their patriarch, George Bluth, being sent to prison.

Despite critical acclaim, the show garnered poor ratings which prompted its home network to cancel it at the offset of its third season. Since its cancellation, the show has developed a massive cult following, with fans even pushing for it to be adapted into a movie. However, in 2012, after being off air for six years, Netflix has announced that they have picked up the show and a 15-episode season four has been ordered.

Though there were initial doubts, season four, which premiered in May 26, 2013 was just as critically acclaimed as the previous seasons. And now, an announcement by the series' creator, Brian Grazer, has left fans breathing a sigh of relief, as a fifth season has just been confirmed.

"I love Arrested Development, but it was never a huge thing. But people are loyal to it, and we're going to do another 17 episodes. So stay tuned for Arrested Development," he announced.

There is no confirmation yet on when the show would arrive on Netflix, however, rumors suggest that "Arrested Development's" season five will debut as early as April 2016.
