Are we seriously not doing phrasing anymore?

30 minute episodes are dangerous though. The "I mean I can watch one more" factor will bite you in the arse


Theres not many shows I can just sit and watch all day. That being said I can watch a season or two of archer saying this exact statement in my head after each episode.

She's brilliant on Arrested Development and on Archer

I had the same experience a few years ago asking "How have I not watched this???"

Its a very entertaining cartoon for several seasons but eventually the exact same jokes rehashed over and over again loses its punch. Glad you found though, enjoy.

Oh my god, why did I never give this show a watch sooner?




Yeah I'm not sure why Archer never developed a bigger following. I've been watching it from the start and think its the funniest show on TV.

A good bit of these become part of the fun, though. In a way, it's Seinfeld (show about nothing), but with international spies. You learn the language and become part of the dysfunctional club. That is the whole point, IMHO.

I mean, we don't go around quoting the esoteric plot points. We're all about "rampage" or "Danger Zone" - right? Because that's how you get ants.

I know I'm going to get shredded, but this show never did it for me. I tried on 2 separate occasions, and I made it to the 8th episode of the first season. They were okay, but I just didn't find it as hilarious as others did.

My favorite comedy show by far. I love watching it on FXX late at night.

I love that he feels obligated to compensate the Russian peasants in the episode - with stuff he's stolen. He trades the Russian army jacket for the shoes and the fire extinguisher for the Vodka.

He also started out the episode by admonishing the crew chief/jumpmaster to "share" the bribe money after he knocked Ray out.

By and large, around the time that the next season hits live, Netflix gets the previous season.

It is what it is.

If you like Archer, check out Frisky Dingo. It is amazingly similar (as its the same guy).

Sealab 2021 was better than Frisky Dingo. Same guys did that too.
