Season 4 Reviews
HitFix
Alan Sepinwall
The great delight of the series was the way Hurwitz, Jim Vallely and the other writers would run jokes out over multiple episodes, or even seasons, sprinkling in just a bit at a time as a reward for viewers paying careful attention.
The New Republic
Laura Bennett
Hurwitz's bid to make a new kind of comedy for the Netflix age is disappointing because it confuses darkness with depth and convolution with complexity. As with those rows of empty chairs at Lucille's trial, it is hard not to see what is missing.
indieWire
Alison Willmore
The new episodes are sometimes brilliantly complex and include some wonderful gags... But they're undeniably low on heart and sometimes just cruel.
Slant Magazine
Nick McCarthy
There's still a plethora of fresh homonym-friendly wordplay, surprising parallels, and witty allusions to delight and preoccupy us until the series pulls off its next magic trick.
Washington Post
Dan Zak
There is much more to like and dislike. Yes, Season 4 gets tangled in its own contrivances. Yes, it is fatty and over-narrated...But its zaniness is exuberant, its complexity awesome, its modality ineluctable.
CinemaBlend
Kelly West
I found Arrested Development's new season to be a refreshing revival of a classic comedy, as well as an impressive bit of storytelling, which makes good use of its ensemble cast, but does fall short in bringing that cast together.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Lloyd
The experience was more akin to being drawn on through a good book, allowing yourself just one more chapter after just one more chapter until you look up from the page and it's morning.
Salon.com
Willa Paskin
This season may be even less perfect, but let not the fantasy of what it could have been be the enemy of what it is.
Philadelphia Inquirer
David Hiltbrand
When all the plots began to coalesce, round about Episode 5, the comedy magic was back in the bottle.
Chicago Reader
Gwynedd Stuart
The idea itself is fine-an oblivious dad taking online courses from University of Phoenix and reliving a mock college experience alongside his son-but it felt tedious. And out of character.
Entertainment Weekly
Melissa Maerz
This isn't just another season of the show - it's a heartfelt tribute to seasons past.
New York Times
Mike Hale
Everything feels slowed down and dragged out at the same time that it feels forced and overly complicated.
HitFix
Daniel Fienberg
If you don't expect full unity and you don't expect the stealthy-yet-effective soul that always lurked behind the show's dark, dark heart, these 15 episodes deliver many laughs.
AV Club
Emily St. James
Though this fourth season is rough in places, it's also unquestionably an important and ground-breaking piece of TV.
Variety
Brian Lowry
After the warmth of seeing them reunited, there's a sort of awkwardness to it, as if nobody really has much to say.
San Francisco Chronicle
David Wiegand
It proves that there is still hope for sitcom genius from the TV industry.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Matt Zoller Seitz
The way it navigates between self-awareness and sentimentality is often dazzling.
TIME Magazine
James Poniewozik
If you marathoned old AD before watching this, turning on the first episode feels like stepping from a briskly air-conditioned room into a rainforest; everything's heavy, languid, a little oppressive.
Den of Geek
Alec Bojalad
Yes, it's different. Yes, it's probably the least effective of the show's four seasons. It's also awesome.
Common Sense Media
Marjorie Kase
The plotlines are incredibly bizarre, unique, and hilarious. The acting is superb, and the direction allows for subtlety that isn't possible in a standard three-camera sitcom.
