You better just check yourself, Fox

I just got a press release from Fox. Most of it is a glowing promo of Prison Break, being that the "fall finale", as they're calling it, is coming up at the end of this month. In preparation, and to grab some viewers who may have stopped watching, Fox will be rerunning the previous week's episode prior to the new episode every Monday for the next three weeks.

I like Prison Break, so it sounds great, right?
But wait. What's usually on before it?
OH yeah, Arrested Development (and, as if it matters, Kitchen Confidential). NOT cool, Fox!

It's pretty well known at this point that KC is bombing and is probably going to get the axe, so it's not looking good for AD at this point. Preempting during sweeps is not a good sign, especially when it's lumped in with another show that's already on its death bed.

I knew it was inevitable. Arrested Development is too good a show for network television. I just thought it might have one more last chance to make it. HBO, are you paying attention? When Fox dumps this, you better pick it up before it even hits the ground. Just think how awesome it could be on a supportive network (and with swear words!).
