Best Television Shows

‘Arrested Development‘ fans are anxiously awaiting the release – actually, the filming – of the big screen ‘AD’ movie, but until then we might have a little bit of the show to enjoy. Creator Mitchell Hurwitz and star Will Arnett are doing a new sitcom pilot called ‘Wilde Kingdom’ and they’ve just added someone else to the cast.

Keri Russell has signed on to the show to play Arnett’s love interest, according to Michael Ausiello at Entertainment Weekly. Arnett will play a rich, selfish guy who falls in love with Russell’s down-to-Earth character. James Vallely, one of the writers of ‘Arrested Development,’ is writing this show too.

We’ve talked about a lot of pilots and pilot casting recently and most of them we’ll never hear about again (most pilots don’t even make it to the air). But this is one show I can actually picture on the FOX schedule.
