Not a fan, but all the Baldwin stuff is excellent.

Season 5 starts on Comedy Central next week.
Glad it's back.

Got the season 4 boxset of this today. Very glad that it's lasted this long as I genuinely thought the poor viewing figures early on would lead to it going the same way as Arrested.

I'm into season 3 on DVD. I'm so far behind. Top funny, though. Oh yes.

Yeah I'm on S3 at the moment. Really good stuff. Amazed it hasn't been a bigger hit really.

Indeed. Gone are the days when Channel 4 made a big fuss of American comedy.

I'm working my way through my S4 boxset at the moment. Still brilliant.

We're up to date with Americy and currently working through season 4 again.

The recent episode with Kelsey Grammer as a con-man was absolutley brilliant, pretty much perfect.

"Now, who wants some num nums?" :D

Watching season 4 of this now and a bit disappointed so far. Still funny, but seems a bit listless at times, at least compared with earlier seasons.

Don't most Comedy shows tend to wain a bit after a few series?
Or at least improve for a few series & then wain a bit as they go on
They keep having to think of new things to do with the characters & often end up forcing things.
I'm sure there aren't too many shows where the last series was the best.

I think Alec Baldwin said it would end in 2012. Which would take it to 6 seasons. Not a bad tally.

I think he was just after a payrise.
What else is he going to do, get back into Superhero movies?
I think not. :D

I'd watch pretty much anything with him in.
I think he is awesome.

It is a bit down on the first three, but apparently season five has leapt right back up in quality.
