I actually haven't watched any of S5, or more than a handful of episodes from S4. The show just got too overwrought and OTT for me. I did see commercials for PimpSuit!Sam, though, and I'm not sure I would have been able to stop laughing long enough to find him menacing.

I think it's hard to feel sorry for him because he spends so much time feeling sorry for himself. He uses it all up, or something.
