Archer

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

I meant the last few episodes, but yeah, those last two were not standalone funny.

"... ranked 4th in the world in competitive wind surfing."

And, basically, those episodes tied up the Sealab show. Y'all should watch that, too. The evolution of Archer went Sealab 2021, Frisky Dingo, then Archer. All of it was great. Sealab was almost in stoner-funny territory, but not quite, and very quotable. FD was storyline oriented, and hilarious. Then there was Archer.

I think they're overusing the "cutting to people in different locations finishing each others' sentences" gag too much.

Yeah... I alternate between enjoying that and finding it trite.

That's because they alternate between doing it well and beating the gag to death.

I think it's cute, in general. Most shows don't try to be clever at all.

Still re-introducing old characers to fill the roles of the necessary drug peeps. I'm sure it will pick up stride.

Yeah. It almost seems like they're thinking this will be the final season and they're gonna bring back every previous plot thread.

So far: still not very funny. Although the "dick trap" or whatever comment was a chuckler.

Maybe you should shut your dick holster.

And what comment are you talking about?

No, it wasn't dick holster. It was something Archer said to Lana, very similar.

Oh, I got mixed up with this.

<object width="420" height="315"><param name="movie" value="//www.youtube.com/v/f_CSULLPMGM?hl=en_US& ... ram><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="//www.youtube.com/v/f_CSULLPMGM?hl=en_US&version=3" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="420" height="315" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object>

I think I know what you were talking about now, but I thought Mallory said it to someone? I don't even know.

Two more seasons.

I hope they get out of Archer: Vice mode. I don't think it is delivering.

Any chance this leads to a Bobby Ewing in the shower ending to bring things back to the spy agency?
