S3, though I enjoy it more now, is definitely not my favourite either. I tend to think of it as 3a and 3b, the 3b being the eps post-Jenny. Most of it isn't that bad, really, eps 6 and 8 were highlights in 3b for me, it's just the hangover from losing Cutter a lot of the time
Definitely S5 has been better than S4, almost as if they held back their best work till last, possibly a dangerous strategy given the ITV audience won't see S5 till sometime next year.
Burton actually started getting interesting in ep 5. April, on the other hand, annoys me. I suppose there was no getting round having someone for Burton to discuss/do certain Villain-type things with, but for me she was just one character too many.
