Arrested Development; Season 4 (TV / 2003)
The moment that many have dreamed of, and for some dreaded, has finally arrived. We were treated to 15 new episodes of what I consider to be one of the greatest comedies to show on TV, and season 4 did nothing to raise or lower it's reputation.
First off there is the jarring narrative break from the previous 3 episodes, due to the scheduling problems of the very busy actors. It is a testament
to the writers and Ron Howards narration that we are able to make any sense of the story in front of us. I do take issue with the need to fill in so many breaks in the last seven years, with many of the stories falling flat until we arrive at the here and now.
