This season was okay, absolutely marred by that lovely interview from just before the release putting a nasty sheen on the whole thing. I'm mildly interested in seeing the end of season 5, but if they make a 6 I won't be watching.

Maeby was a highlight. Most of everyone else felt like a puppet version of an old character we know and love. The incessant "GOB is closeted" jokes were way, way too much, especially since the show already has a closeted Bluth whose sexuality comes out in nearly every single scene he's in. The BLUTH parodies of the Trump campaign signs were toothless, especially from a show that was remarkably prescient about how a rich moron in office might turn out. Should have just skipped that reference entirely if they weren't going to do anything with it besides a throwaway Lucille gag (which was, admittedly, hilarious, because Lucille best bluth).

e: come to think of it though, that would have worked just fine without the sign thing. Perhaps better. Oh well.

"Hurt people; hurt people" is a fantastic gag.

That was the funniest part of the season, honestly.

Maeby was a highlight, and that's new. Lucille was THE highlight, and that's not.

There's been one post in this thread in the past week. That's about as stunning an indictment of AD's fall from grace as this forum could manage. I honestly thought it'd be another Seinfeld/Futurama/King of the Hill with threads til the end of time full of goons just quoting the show at each other.
