Default The Ten Best THE NEW ADVENTURES OF OLD CHRISTINE Episodes of Season Five

https://jacksonupperco.com/2025/01/2...f-season-five/

Quote:
Old Christine’s final season is its worst in terms of sitcommery, for while it’s funnier than Four and takes more pains to showcase Julia Louis-Dreyfus, the centralized Christine character has lost her shape. Sometimes she’s aggressive and hot-tempered like, namely, Seinfeld’s vindictive and selfish Elaine, but mostly she’s just overly broad: a catch-all for any exaggerated comic trait — a lazy, uneducated, self-serving, vapid, clumsy, chaotic, hot mess. Last week, I compared her to Grace Adler, but I’d say this year also sees traces of the bumbling and randomly quirky Liz Lemon. Indeed, with 30 Rock scribe Jack Burditt taking a key role on staff, this comparison reveals the overall arc of this character, as she’s become bigger and less precise en masse — taking on attributes of Elaine, Grace, and Liz (three very different types) because she’s basically any ol’ sitcom goof now, existing within sillier and less individualized stories.
