After 'Arrested Development' season 5B blew up in Netflix's face, would renewing 'One Day at a Time' be such a bad idea?

The new episodes of ‘Arrested Development’ don't live up to expectations and the lack of enthusiasm from the cast is glaringly evident. Is it time for Netflix to drop the show?
PUBLISHED MAR 15, 2019

If you’re a fan of ‘Arrested Development,’ chances are the highly anticipated second half of season 5 did not live up to your expectations. The latest, and hopefully the last, episodes of the satirical comedy will make you want to reconsider if it was ever a good idea for Netflix to reboot the Fox show.

There is no sugar-coating the fact that the episodes that premiered Friday are nothing short of boring. The utter lack of enthusiasm from the actors is very evident and gives you an idea about why the show is on its very last leg.
