This season is such a disappointment considering the expectations Harmon brought by talking so much shit about season 4. I don't want this to be the finale but another season like this is just gonna tarnish the reputation of this show.

Lots of cult shows retain their cast, Arrested Development and Futurama first come to mind.

I say B. I think its only better than season 4 but worse than the first 3 seasons. Watching series while they're airing makes people more critical of the show though so I bet people watching all seasons at once won't even notice the difference.

They would have to pay all the people involved in making the show more money.

If it was so easy you don't think record labels wouldn't have forced upcoming artists to make them? Trust me i'm sure a lot of people and companies are working hard constantly to get that no. 1 hit.

Doubt the executives care about that. Its not as if Community gets the network in trouble by being offensive. 30 Rock was a lot more subversive but it got better treatment.

Yeah that sounds like a pretty good explanation.

So it's definitely the budget that's causing this? Cause i don't get why 30 Rock and Community got shorter seasons while Parks kept getting full orders even though it wasn't doing much better in the ratings department.

Can anyone tell me why Parks and Rec gets full season orders and Community doesn't? As far as i can tell Parks doesn't get more ratings than Community so what gives? Is it cheaper to make? Which would be weird cause Parks has a larger regular cast.

Season 2 paintball finale was the best season finale.

It could be set in world with more extreme capitalism in the USA? The movie was set in a time where a show like that couldn't happen too but it was still a great movie.

They look similar enough to be sisters in a movie to me.

This show and Parks at this point i'm just watching them out of habit. Both can still make me laugh a few times per episode which i guess is good enough reason to keep watching.

South Park? The Simpsons? Game Of Thrones? Two and half men (early years)?

"Hey cmon don't look at guys portal gun, We've all been to weird places!"

So why did the Season 4 finale get a D for using a cheap it was all a dream conceit again?

My kids aren't gonna watch the garbage major kids tv studios shovel out these days, I'm gonna force them to watch the garbage they shoveled out in MY day.

I'd say it was more of a late-season futurama weak episode.

I've gotten used to the beeps so much i think its funnier with them.

As long as the ISIS storyline has a season long conflict or something then i'm in. I'm liking this whole renewing shows for multiple seasons trend. Really validates your investment in a show.
