The new season is a success, but this is a banana stand that needs some new flavors fast.
Full reviewArrested was always a zany version of reality, but the cartoonishness feels hyperbolic now, unfocused.
Full reviewMostly funny. At moments scintillating... mostly a story about having watched "Arrested Development."
Full reviewThe more you know about what's happened with Tambor over the past 12 months and the cast's attempt to reframe it, the emptier the comedy's absurdist spectacle becomes.
Full reviewThe series' interest in intergenerational idiocy and corruption couldn't be more timely.

Full reviewArrested Development just needs to get over the stories it's already told, and move on to the ones it's telling this time around.
Full reviewSeason five starts much more promisingly, with an energy that comes from reuniting most of the cast in a single episode again.
Full reviewArrested Development ending, or approaching the finish line, is the best thing for all involved.
