Fans of Arrested Development prepare to get happy: There may be more new Bluth family antics coming to Netflix than you originally thought.

The show's creator, Mitchell Hurwitz, shot more material than was needed for the 10-episode run that Netflix ordered and Netflix has agreed to increase the order to 12 to 15 episodes, Deadline reports.

Hurwitz, who is producing the show with 20th Century Fox and Imagine TV, also came up with new storylines during filming, so production of the show has been halted so that he can examine the footage already shot and figure out how to incorporate the new plots.

“We are thrilled with the direction of the show, with the footage we have seen and with the relationship between Mitch, Imagine, 20th and Netflix,” a Netflix spokeswoman told Deadline. “At this time, we are not confirming or announcing the final episode count but we are sure fans will be thrilled when we do.”

A Netflix spokeswoman confirmed the Deadline report for Wired, but declined to offer additional comment. The company's streaming service is scheduled to begin offering new episodes of Arrested Development – arguably the best comedy ever put on TV ever – in the spring.
