Archer

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

This week it was almost funny. Especially the "phrasing" jokes.

I found myself chuckling more than once, which was an improvement.

I'm caught up with season 4, which I thought was a solid season.

I've been recording all of season 5. When it ends, I plan to do a marathon.

Started rewatching Season 4. Just watched #3, the one where Krieger turns Ray into a cyborg. OMG, it's hysterical. Just underscores the shittiness of this season.

Ok, completely original speculation, I have not read this anywhere. This is all out of my head:

Mallory has taken ISIS DEEP cover. She has gotten ISIS disavowed, and the plan was to accomplish some mission off the radar using the cocaine to open the door to something. We don't know yet. This "Archer Vice" operation will be resolved this season and next season they will be spies again with a big thanks from the US Government. Since the FBI seemed clueless when they first got arrested, and Mallory went over their heads to get them off the hook, their target.... might be the CIA gun runner who just appeared the last episode?

At least I hope so. If they don't win like 20% of the time, they stop becoming fun to watch. This season has been one kick in the nuts after another.

I'm predicting "it was all a dream." Like, Archer wakes up from an epic bender and it was all a dream.

And no more seasons.

They've already been approved for 2 more seasons. Though, that didn't force Dave Chapelle's hand.

I had a college roommate from there. He was Indian.

Anyway. These last two episodes: not funny at all. It was clear they were doing some kind of homage to something, but it just didn't work for me.

The base one made me laugh. Then again, many base things make me laugh.
