That’s especially true during a storyline in which Tambor, as patriarch George Bluth, and his bad magician son, Gob (Will Arnett), agree to cut a sexual swath across Mexico, although each is lying to the other about wanting to do it.

That Tambor has been let go from Jill Soloway’s Amazon series “Transparent” after allegations of sexual harassment also makes watching the new season strange at times. (Portia de Rossi, who had decided to stop acting before production of the current season began but agreed to appear in five episodes, did not take part.) Apologies were subsequently issued, but a wary Netflix nixed a planned promotional trip to England. The new season - its fifth since 2003, again on Netflix - was negatively heralded by a much-discussed group interview in the New York Times, in which male cast members, led by Jason Bateman, seemed to defend, even to mansplain, the behavior of Jeffrey Tambor, who had been verbally abusive to Jessica Walter. The show now appears with the frequency of new U2 albums. If CBS can drop “Young Sheldon” on us, Netflix surely owes us “Motherboy Buster.Five years after the return of “Arrested Development” as a Netflix series, which came seven years after it was canceled as a Fox sitcom, “Arrested Development” returns again Tuesday to follow the misadventures of the Bluths of Newport Beach. “Look who thinks they can wear white,” she sneers, martini glass in hand, at young Lindsay. Smulders captures Lucille’s disdain for her tween children with biting accuracy. “How I Met Your Mother’s” Cobie Smulders portrays young Lucille in 1980s flashbacks with “Fargo’s” Jean Smart as her mother. While it’s getting harder to get the original cast together, this season suggests the possibility of a spinoff. In true Bluth fashion, what you think you know about the Bluths you don’t know at all. It’s a scene that belongs on the show’s Emmy reel.

The climax is an epic courtroom showdown between Michael, who has “A Few Good Men” on his brain, and his mother, Lucille.

The good news is that she is a part of the expanded, 46-minute finale that finds Buster on trial for murder. One drawback to this batch: Portia de Rossi’s Lindsay, who ran for Congress so she could be part of the problem, is a blip here because of de Rossi’s decision to retire from acting. There’s even a “Golden Girls” riff, complete with theme. The episodes are stuffed with puns, sight gags, innuendos, callbacks to previous episodes and the random meta joke (narrator Ron Howard gets a dig in at Tom Hanks). The question hanging over everyone: What happened to Lucille Two (Liza Minnelli)? Lucille (Jessica Walter) and George (Tambor again) fret over how they are going to build a wall at the U.S.-Mexico border. Maeby (Alia Shawkat) finds her alter ego, senior citizen Annette, is taking over her life. Tobias (David Cross) is hiding a family in the attic. Michael (Jason Bateman, moonlighting from “Ozark”) is getting closer to the family’s financial shenanigans, including George Michael’s (Michael Cera) bogus tech company FaceBlock. Now Gob is publicly stuck as gay, and his efforts to out himself as straight draw the Gay Mafia, who won’t let him - for at least another seven years, until he ages out. Gob’s (Will Arnett) magic trick at the parade in which he was going to swap sexuality and emerge from a closet as a heterosexual (long demented story that only this show could tell) goes awry when that closet is filled with cement, with magician Tony Wonder (Ben Stiller) inside. The two go on the run, which is really hard to do when their legs are shackled together.
