The new season of ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT was a big hit for Netflix. So big that there’s talk about bringing the show back for another “televised” encore.
However, a lot of viewers had problems with the structure and editing of the show, which was different from the TV version in days of yore, concentrating around individual characters instead of blipping around (no, that’s not a technical term you never heard of, just a word we made up) and intercutting between characters and stories. They felt that the ensemble effect that was part of the charm of the original was lost.
