I laughed the first time they presented Christian Slater as a mid-level drug trafficking lacky. There were a few good moments in each episode, usually....and the Krieger clones were a great idea that so far hasn't really paid off, but could lead somewhere good.

Not a great season. But it hasn't fallen as far as Always Sunny, which was weirdly predictable and almost totally dependent upon callback jokes last season.

New season on Netflix now. I've got three episodes to go.

It definitely gets off to a rocky start, but gets better as it goes. The early episodes had too much gross Pam, too much Cheryl, and too much yelling.

First 2 are great, then it tapers off gradually.

I find myself to be so disappointed in adults that haven't watched Archer. I feel like giving them a "boop" on the nose.

Season 7 has been great. Much better than 6. I'm laughing outloud in pretty much every episode.

Yeah a lot of people talked shit about Archer Vice (5th season), but I still think that's one of the funniest ones. First season is by far the worst one.

I think the 8th season will start airing in March. Can't fucking wait. Gonna fix myself a black Mexican to chase my Glengoolie Blue with.

The last season fixed some of the problems, but it's still running on fumes.

Maybe 8 will improve on it more.

You just reminded me I didn't watch last season at all. I've got such a TV backlog that I think I'll just have to drop some shows. That or take a week off just to watch television.

This season has been pretty bland so far.

Wow, the finale was hilarious. Saved a lackluster run.
