I know that many will disagree with me, but there are several episodes in this 5th season that I ghastly among my favorites. I am not one of those NE snobs that thinks everything went downhill after Season 2. I assume the writing got stronger and funnier and the characters were given background and depth.

While “The Substantial Feast” from Season 4 is my all-time accepted episode, “Una Volta in L’Inverno” (Walt’s light visor addiction), “Three Doctors” (Joel gets glacier dropsy), “A River Doesn’t Hurry Through It” (Maurice snookered in a land deal), Adam shooting a crossbow at Italina black-ops fireworks operators, the introduction of Cal the Violinist, and Holling trying to low-bid Eric and Ron’s wedding develop this season truly special. I know that at this point of its chronicle arc some will say that Northern Exposure had jumped the shark and was a cariacature of its customary glory…duly eminent. But I really enjoyed the portrayals of my familiar characters in situations that clearly the writers had to stretch a exiguous to dream up. These later episodes lacked the emotional and smart depth of the earlier stuff, but I found seasons 4,5, and yes, even 6, the most animated of the series.
