Arrested Development Season 5 Trailer | May 29 | Netflix
- Thread starter KoolAid
- Start date
It's insane how well Season 4 holds up with this new recut. Immigration, The Wall, Superhero films etc it all eludes to today's events.
That was a very bad trailer.
But I look forward to s5. The finale to last season set up so many plotlines.

Not sure if there's a thread on is specifically, but how is the s4 recut?
EDIT: I forgot how bad the greenscreening was in this. Was Winkler ever actually on set with anyone?

I love it, much better than it was.
wow, this looks great.
lindsay also looks like lindsay again, or maybe my eyes are fucking with me.

Kind of bummed that the style of lighting/"look" of season 4 continues here, but maybe that's just my brain trying to reconcile that everyone's getting old

I agree with Fox. They were paid for their work and agreed to the terms. Fox is free to do what they want with it.

So, any predictions on plot lines? Looking at the trailer it looks like Tobias is trying to imitate different members of the family? Lindsey is running for government and there is a family of the year election?
The trailer looks good but I wish I had some more information. Like, how many episode are there? And what about the whole Lucille 2 thing?

Started watching the Season 4 remix and it's so weird because I'm having a hard time remmebering what the old version was like. My brain is looking for inconsistencies that it doesn't know exist.
Watching the Deutsch version of the trailer makes me laugh even more for some reason.

I feel like this show would be a goddamn nightmare to translate.
Oh god this is so terrible. None of the puns work except for the blue thing, which is also different in meaning though.

The Recut currently only has German subs in Germany and they are indeed a distracting hot mess.
You would need to see the contract to draw any conclusions, no?
Same. What I'm sure of: there is a ton of retreading as filler to get each episode to 22 minutes. Presented under the auspice of reminding the viewer of key plot lines, but it's mostly just repetitive
YOU ARE A HOT MESS!
But yeah, recut doesn't have english subtitles in México so I have to watch it with headphones...
I feel like the chances of "loose seal" making sense in any other language in the history of humanity are just about 0.0000%
Based on what...? What knowledge do you have to draw a conclusion about this...
Rewatching season 4 in preparation for this and I just realised that CW Swapigans (the barter restaurant) is owned by Carl Weathers. Fuck.
Also there's something unfinished about DeBrie - she's described as a 61yr old male by the doctor, Marky Bark mentions being unable to tell the gender difference in someone he previously dated and Tobias has the whole 'is that a gal I see? No it's a fallacy' joke that doesn't have a payoff...

Wasn't actually him, just a jokey reference using another bald blue man. Might as well have been a never nude kree.
I'm curious to hear about Tobias's time in space. Hope they address it.
Totally. It would've worked better if they crammed it down to 18 eps or something.
Saving that for the Re-Remix.
Yeah, I've marathoned through the remix this weekend (a few episodes to go) and feel the same way. The remix in general is just really good.
Can't wait until Season 5 is out.
This Remix was created for syndication purposes. So these episodes would not be made to binge, but to be watched randomly and/or consecutively over many days. So for that reason, they need to re-establish plot lines. The remix is a Frankenstein's monster made from extra long episodes focused largely on one character so there really is no way to cram 3-4 episodes plotlines into 22 minutes. They've already cut out, re-contextualized, or reduced a jokes length in just about every episode so they could make 22 minute version. None of these Remix episodes work as standalone pieces, unlike the original 4 seasons.
Only in some cases. Often they are retreading three times within two or three episodes. It's filler. It's not too distracting, at least.
Also I'm guessing Howard did more narration for the recut, yeah? There seems to be more to help stitch together the storylines, but I can't really remember how it originally was
Yeah there's a bunch of new narration to better connect the multiple-character focus of the edit. I do wish they would lean a bit less heavily on the narrator/character saying the same thing at the same time gag, it gets a lot muddier and harder to understand what either person is saying more often than in the older seasons.
He's imitating Michael who doesn't have a mustache, so instead of shaving his...
So, will we see a payoff to the George changing gender stuff, or won't they do it now with Transparent having aired in between?
Will Tobias finally be outed as a black albino?
Will this season end without a cliffhanger?
The 2-3 times are to account for commercial breaks, similar to the original 3 seasons. There's always a certain amount of refocusing on network television after commercial breaks. This editing of the stories to be parallel also cause some retreading as there is no clean way make it all work together. It was never designed that way. They often have to double back to setup moments properly. This wasn't uncommon in the original 3 seasons, but it happens a lot when characters are sharing a location but not directly interacting.
Howard did a ton of new narration. Plenty of new jokes solely from his narration, often to cut jokes in the original down for time. And pretty much any parallel stories cut from across the original episodes are stitched with new narration.
I've been rewatching episodes of the original as I watch this remix and it is really fascinating what Hurwitz did here. I can't say one is more essential than the other, they both should be watched. The remix can be really handy for making connections you might miss in the original. It's sort of AD season 4 for Dummies.
Makes sense why the Collector would have one. There's only dozens of them.
When they started talking about a wall between Mexico and a 'maca' plant that often sounds like they're pronouncing with a 'g' rather than a 'c' I thought I was hearing things. I had to double check when S4 originally came out (and then got sad thinking how Trump was barely a thing at that point)
I hope they don't get rid of the murder mystery plot too quickly.
I feel dumb for missing this before, but I just noticed Maggie had a cornballer:
I love that episode.
"Oh Justice what is it boy? Is there some jackass in my bathrobe?"
Portia di Rossi quit acting.
