After promising back in April that more Arrested Development is on the way, producer Brian Grazer offered more season five specifics in an appearance on Adam Corolla's podcast Tuesday.

“Netflix is determined to do more episodes, so we’re going to do more episodes,” Grazer said, noting that production will begin in early January (he said Jan. 1) and the new episodes premiering “four months after that.”

Grazer previously said "another 17 episodes" of the cult comedy were on the way.

Details beyond that are currently unknown, but it's definitely reason enough to be optimistic.
