I think Season 5 is far better overall than Season 4. The problem is Season 4A was so Frozen focused, that they lost sight of everything else. Season 4B was basically them attempting to get the show back on track. Which then got us Season 5A, an Arthurian Legend themed arc, and Season 5B, a Greek Mythology themed arc, both of which have been established to be part of the Once universe from fairly early on. The other problem with Season 4 is that it did very little to help the overall timeline with it's flashbacks, the majority of the flashbacks had little to no connection to events already established on the show. Season 5 (specifically 5B) had almost every flashback be relevent to previously established events. In conclusion, despite its flaws, I think Season 5 is a far better season than Season 4 was.
