Season 5b just made me want to revisit Season 4, so I am watching the remixed version (22 minute episodes) and, man, Season 4 was so good. There's a sense of, "we only have these three actors together for so many scenes, so let's improvise a plot around these disjointed scenes" but , 1, the new structure straightens out the timeline a lot better, and 2. the jokes are worth it. I think that's my issue with Season 5 - it just wasn't that funny.
Season 4 has Gob's roofie circle, Buster's grotesquely swollen hand, P-Hound, Tobias getting his rocks off, John Slattery, same. It's as good as you can hope a new-age Arrested Development to be. I am not sure there are any gags in Season 5 as close.
The only moment I really enjoyed in 5b was the last 20 minutes when they actually got most of the cast together and finally wrapped everything up.
I'd enjoy a Season 6 or a movie if they could get most of the cast in the same room again and do a soft reset on the storylines (please no more FakeBlock).
