Canceled fan favorite gets second life on Microsoft’s Internet video service.
Microsoft Corp. will run free episodes of the quirky TV comedy “Arrested Development” through its MSN Video service later this year, making the show available online for the first time.
MSN, the software maker’s Internet unit, said Wednesday it will run display and video ads instead of charging viewers to watch the critically lauded show that was a hit with a relatively small but fiercely loyal audience.
“On TV, ‘Arrested Development’ created an incredibly passionate and dedicated fan base, and we’re thrilled to bring this series to the global MSN audience,” Rob Bennett, MSN’s general manager of entertainment and video services, said in a statement announcing the deal.
