Archer

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

Animated FX spy show. The creator also worked on Sealab and Frisky Dingo. It has the Frisky Dingo animation style with some Venture Brothers mixed in although not as crazy with the characters. The first season just ended and you can see it on Hulu. I haven't watched them all but what I have seen I have enjoyed.

I started DVRing the last 3 episodes... frikkin hilarious. Also extremely raunchy for basic cable. Showing dudes bending chicks over in the broom closet, etc.

But, then, I also loved Sealab and Frisky Dingo.

I still have the last few episodes on my DVR to watch but after the 2nd episode I went online to see if it had been renewed. Thankfully FX renewed it for season 2.

Based on the first episode I ever saw, I knew I'd be buying the season 1 DVD.

I purchased and have been watching Season 1. Hilarious show. Very adult humor.

Is it me or is FX quietly putting out some of the best TV shows lately and they don't seem afraid to cross any lines? The Shield, Archer, The League, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, etc.

Archer's voice is also the lead voice in "Bob's Burgers" which isn't horrible.

This is one of the funniest damn shows ever.

And I knew immediately what they were riffing the last scene, because it was the exact scene I always describe when trying to convince someone how badass Magnum PI was. I remember about 3 times when he shot an unarmed person in the face.

3rd season confirmed.

If one is a fan of Archer, then they would almost certainly enjoy Frisky Dingo, and also Sealab 2021. Same crew made them.

I got over my Lamont grief by starting the Ant Baby Machete Squad.

Just finished watching season 1 again on netflix.

I rarely rewatch a TV series, and never so soon after watching it the first time.

Yuuuuuup.

I've watched Season 1 about 6 times now. It's totally ninja.

I had to look up the "Johnny Bench" joke from the pilot. It was too subtle.
