New writers...

Struggling Dwight.

What did he call that, a San Antonio Split?

Yeah, that was pretty corny and ridiculous, but I thought it was funny.
I think they are trying to show this show doesn't take itself too
seriously and is aware of its cliches.

Season 4 and this new season 5 are pretty good. It is just as much of
an improbably coincidence that all these people would meet up on the
road in the midwest ... and then for Dwight to show was, and Daniel
at the same time is just as ridiculous.

I had given up on this show back in mid-Season 2, but would check it
out now and then on Hulu. When Season 4 came around I don't even
know why I bothered, but then I saw the beginning with Rick, and the
old crew, and Morgan, who also was not my favorite character.

But then we got Al(thea) and John, and June ... and I am really enjoying
it. It has a fun-ness and a lightness the other season don't have. I hope
that Madison/Kim Dickens is still alive somewhere no matter how unlikely
that is, I thought she was great in this show.
