New York ( CNN ) -- There 's `` no touching '' this . `` Arrested Development '' fans can hardly wait for its sweet return on Netflix at the end of this month , so what 's a few hours in line to get a photograph with the series-inspired Bluth 's Original Frozen Banana stand , making its way around New York this week . Fresh from touring London , the `` popup '' stopped by Columbus Circle on Tuesday to promote season four 's May 26 release on Netflix . Anyone patient enough to wait in a line stretching around Central Park West and West 61st Street was treated to a chocolate-covered frozen banana for the occasion . Actor Terry Crews , who joined the cast this season , greeted the throngs . Posing with the two actors serving the bananas , he delivered a famous line from the series : `` There 's always money in the banana stand . '' Like `` cutoffs '' and the `` chicken dance , '' that line stayed with fans long after it was pulled from the air in 2006 . Despite its cult following , the show lasted only three seasons on Fox . And its viewers , though few , were left clamoring for more . Produced by Ron Howard , `` Arrested Development '' follows the bizarre moments shared by Michael Bluth ( portrayed by Jason Bateman ) and his eccentric family . The heart of the sitcom is its over-the-top characters played by Michael Cera , Will Arnett and Portia de Rossi , to name a few . New co-star Crews says his personal favorite is Lindsay Bluth , played by de Rossi . `` The Lindsay character is so pathetic in so many ways , '' he said . However , he also has a special place in his heart for Tony Hale 's character , Buster Bluth . `` You really feel like they 're members of your family , '' Crews said . `` And that 's what makes it so funny . Because you recognize all the dysfunction , even in yourself . '' Crews calls the reunion of that dysfunction a `` miracle '' and credited the `` grass-roots effort by the public and by its creator , Mitchell Hurwitz . '' `` He put his whole life into bringing this show back for the fans , and Netflix provided the wonderful opportunity , '' Crews said . `` It 's an iconic thing , and it 's an amazing thing to watch this happen . '' Crews -- a fan of the show who said he was thrilled to get the call from Hurwitz to join the revived series -- considers the release of an entire season at once to be a game-changer for the industry . `` In TV , they love standalone , 30 minutes , all-encompassing stories over ( series ) , '' Crews explained . `` When you try to carry a story on , it 's just so hard . With network television , it 's almost impossible . '' But thanks to Netflix , he said , `` You can tell the story as much as you want , and you can follow it as much as you want . '' The actor points to the success of Netflix 's original series `` House of Cards '' as proof that releasing an entire season at one time can actually fuel fans ' hunger for more . And with only days remaining in `` The Final Countdown '' to `` Arrested Development , '' questions are already being raised as to what comes next . `` I think definitely the next step after this is a movie , '' Crews said , adding to Hurwitz 's hints that he has tailored the new season to lead to film . `` If 'Veronica Mars ' can get Kickstarted into a movie , look at what the 'AD ' crew is about and what this about . We could make this happen . ''
Fans in New York got a sweet way to celebrate new season of `` Arrested Development '' New cast member Terry Crews says viewers helped bring the show back . The actor and comedian was honored at an event on Tuesday night with his fellow castmates from the hit comedy series that aired for five seasons between 2004 and 2007.
