Key Cog Remains in 'Arrested' Fold

Archive

The man behind “Arrested Development” will be staying at the show’s helm this season and next.

Mitchell Hurwitz, who created the series, has signed a new agreement with producer 20th Century Fox TV to remain for “Arrested’s” third season.

The studio offered Hurwitz a fairly standard “overall deal,” thought to include a provision that he develop new projects in addition to “Arrested Development.” The showbiz trade papers report that he opted not to take it, choosing instead to concentrate solely on “Arrested.”
