Archer

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

Sounds good to me.

Not sure how they'll stretch that out for an entire season.

I also hope they find their way back to their roots once they fail (they're not going to sell it, get rich, and retire as that would end the show). I've seen too many shows depart from their core and start hemorrhaging viewers.

I'd rather see the show go in a new direction like this than suffer from bored and uninspired writing.

I think it'll be fine, as long as the corporate suits keep out of it.

Sounds good to me. They do homages to all the spy stuff - might as well do it for Scarface, Miami Vice, etc.

Get caught, break out of jail together, go back to the spying bidness by the end of season arc....

I'm cautiously optimistic about this massive change. Although, the story line reason behind it is flimsy, to say the least. How does the government shut them down with claims that they aren't legally doing what they're doing when the government has known about them since Season 1 (and obviously before that)? Maybe they've fallen out of favor, which would be far more believable... That would also allow for a return if desired.

So when is Season 4 hitting Netflix? I hate how they time this shit. Season 4 should have been on Netflix two weeks ago so people have time to catch up or get primed again for Season 5.

Without spoilers, does it seem to you folks who are caught up that all plot lines have been resolved? Did Conway Sterns ever show back up?

Not bad. I'm in. I'll miss the political intrigue bits, but those were always a side-dish on Archer anyway. I'm sure they'll find ways to keep it interesting.

One of my favourite shows switched eras every season.

Amazing return for Archer.

Was that montage at the end the upcoming season.... or just an Archer daydream?

Seemed like a season preview to me.

Is it wrong that I thought Pam looked oddly hot in that montage?

Heh.

I'm a crazy Cheryl fan, personally.

Team Carol. Cheryl. Charlene.

I concur wholeheartedly.

But it looks like Pam is going to get a bit fit this season. And then run around raging in her bra. There's something appealing there.

Loved the first episode.

Second episode seemed kind of a downer. I need to watch it again to make a final decision.

The end of Season 4 wasn't fabulous. Maybe it's just time to end it.

The end of Season 4 was amazing if you were cool enough to have watched Sealab 2021.
