  6. TV picks: 'Arrested Development,' biopics, 'Longmire,' cartoons

    <strong>"Arrested Development" (Netflix, Sunday, then anytime).</strong> The 15-episode, seven-years-belated fourth season of what was formerly a Fox comedy and now belongs to the Internet is not being offered in advance for critical review, so you know as much as I do. Apart from appeasing the critical community, and, as my wife pointed out, not wrecking our Memorial Day weekend by making us work on Sunday, there doesn't seem to be any reason to make it available. Public interest is already running high &mdash; higher, anyway, than when the show was actually on &mdash; and the producers don't have to worry about winning their time slot, because they have don't have one. The whole series will become available at once Sunday, and then remain available, to Netflix subscribers, something like forever; new subscriptions will be the only metric that matters. I don't think for a moment that this coyness disguises any sort of tactical damage control &mdash; given that the old team (who are back every man-jack and woman-jill of them) had an unerring sense of how to make this show, I suspect watching the new episodes will be like running into an old friend from whom the longest separation feels like no time at all. The third season ended not at a moment of resolution but of escape &mdash; escape is a kind of resolution, I know &mdash; with Michael Bluth (Jason Bateman) and son George Michael (Michael Cera) and Michael's father, George (Jeffrey Tambor), sailing off to Mexico; Michael's mother, Lucille (Jessica Walter), hijacking the Queen Mary to evade the SEC; and George Michael's cousin, Maeby (Alia Shawkat), who turned out not to be his cousin, pitching her family story to "AD" executive producer (and narrator) Ron Howard, who didn't see it as a TV show. (But maybe a movie.) Some things have no doubt happened in the interim.
