Yeah, I'm through 7 episodes.

The way they've handled the actors not being in the same location on the same days is comedy in itself.

Really want to talk about specifics but I'd hate to spoil anything.

Agreed. I'm a little disappointed by the lack of them all being together, but it's still great.
The scenes when they are all together are money, and some of the episodes are better than others.
I also really want to start throwing quotes, but won't drop spoilers.

Though I might just add:

"That's a Bob Loblaw low-blow"
If we could see these many waves that flow through clouds and sunken caves...

Only got to watch the first two episodes last night but I dig it.

Maybe didn't age well. I thought she was cute in the old episodes, but not in the new ones.

You haven't lived until you've had a robot shart in your ear and followed along in the live setlist thread while it happens.

Freckles are cute on kids.
I've been coming to where I am from the get go
Find that I can groove with the beat when I let go
So put your worries on hold
Get up and groove with the rhythm in your soul

I've finished 7 of the 15 episodes yesterday.  It def is up and down.  I will say this, I think by the tail end of the season, they'll all be together, and comedy gold is in store in my opinion. 

Can we talk about the Dead?  I'd love to talk about the fucking Grateful Dead, for once, can we please discuss the Grateful FUCKING Dead!?!?!?!

That's the same point we're at, 7 episodes in, and I agree I think all the little stuff is going to make for a huge payoff later. I already find myself wanting to rewatch some of the episodes to catch all of the 'future payoff' jokes that have already started popping up.

I love that they are intertwining old references with the new references.  The sound of silence references and the snoopy references so far have been fucking fantastic.  I def will be rewatching this season again to put everything together.  Last week, I rewatched seasons 1-3 and I found myself catching references I hadn't ever seen or heard before.  It really is so well put together.

I use records for that and don't have to justify it to my friends.

Yep, the whole season at once.

You should get the free month trial to Netflix just to watch the new season. You can cancel Netflix afterwards and not have to pay for a subscription.

I'm just going to throw out another spoiler, I can't stop laughing at the fact they put a MST3000 reference in there.  So awesome IMO.

Finished up season 4 last night, and just got done rewatching the first two episodes.
Great season, it definitely leaves a lot to be told in either another season or a movie. And that's fine by me, as long as there is another season or a movie.

Watched 12 and 13 last night, really hitting their stride with all the series-long jokes starting to hit punch lines.

I'm planning to rewatch season 4 this week.  I finished it last week.  I really liked it.  The Gob episodes were the best ones in my opinion.

that's funny - I'm only through 9 or 10 episodes so far, but I think the Tobias eps are the best.
