The creator of Frisky Dingo lined up a show on FX called Archer. The pilot is available on the interwebs but the series doesn't start up until next month.

Looking forward to this, there were always adverts for it during Sunny and The League.

One of the best cartoons for decades. The space episodes are sublimely funny.

I watched the first three seasons back to back when I first stumbled upon Archer (while back now!).
The show should have way more public awareness than it currently does, it is top drawer!

Not gotten to the space episodes yet. Been off work with an ear infection so been watching on and off between pain killer hazes. About half way through season 3

Yes, Archer is one of the few series that actually made me laugh out loud. Had to pause the show in two occasions because of the lols. Pam's got a way of expressing herself :olo:

Archer Vice is ok as well tho not as funny. I'm glad S6 will be in the old style again.

Yep, definitely. Archer Vice took a bit of a dip, but right back to form with season 6.

Mallory is still annoying me, though, she seems really hard to write for.

Heh just watched a few clips on YouTube to see what it was. I was a bit confused about the fact they were members of ISIS. Google seems to reveal this wasn't intentional.

it was pre-IS :)

I think they decided last year that "ISIS" would no longer be a thing going forward in Archer.

Not that I watch it but it made me laugh that there was a dog in Downton Abbey called ISIS too.

Bad coincidences :D.

it takes a few eps to get into the groove, I admit.
the first few times you're all like "... what just happened?".
The show pretty much runs on oneliners and running gags, more watching is required.

Isn't that right, Other Barry?
