Closing the banana stand

Tonight's exercise: Imagine the worst thing the FOX TV network could do to its brilliant series "Arrested Development" as a final indignity before cancellation. Then, I'll share the real thing, and you tell me which is worse.
Do you have it?

OK, then. The network plans to burn off the final four episodes of the show as a two-hour block on a Friday night, February 10th. Over on NBC that same evening is scheduled the opening ceremonies of the Winter Olympics.
Now, unless you guessed that the final episodes would not air at all, I think I win.

The final four "Arrested" installments will feature guest stars Justine Bateman and Judge Reinhold. GOB travels to Iraq with a Christian magic show, Buster fakes a coma to avoid testifying in court, and Maebe and George Michael take part in a mock wedding. The season's final scenes will take place at a yacht party, such as the one that started the series.
