3rd (4th?) Hand Arrested Development News

So my good My Space pal The Big Yellow Joint tells me (and his 3308 other friends) that Variety reports that Arrested Development co-creater Mitch Hurwitz has officially left the still in limbo television classic. Word is he'd be willing to work on the show in an advisory role. What he'd really like to do though is make a movie. If you'll remember Ron Howard's cameo in the last(as apposed to final) episode of the show winked at this idea.

Perhaps a movie is the way to go. I'm begining to think it might be better to lay this show to rest as the classic it is. Could the show really do better than it has? Would it without one of it's original creators in toe?
