Even facing impending TV doom, Arrested Development manages to maintain its brilliance, mocking the conventional sitcom mentality and the powers that be. Tonight's episode was, once again, magnificent. But if you're one of the few who watches, you already know that. What if you're one of the perhaps many more who record the show for future viewing? Perhaps the new Nielsen DVR ratings will hold a last gasp of appeal for FOX. Then again, it is FOX.
