that sucks. bad ratings?

that remidns me tho, im like 1-2 seasons behind on BBs. I like it in a heartwarming sort of way, but I don't find it that funny and don't really feel compelled to watch it unless im really bored and browsing hulu.

it's funny. it took a season to hit its stride though. but the humor kinda reminds me of early simpsons. they feel like characters and not stereotypes still

i'm not sure if it has bad ratings, but it's been on the 7:30pm Sunday timeslot for most of this season and you can ask futurama fans how well that worked out for them

if it's in that same timeslot next season, i do not have high hopes for its future

Re: chat about accessibility

You know how cartoon network and nickelodeon have made bank by making children's shows that also "subtly" include jokes for manchildren? That's kind of what Archer is, but for normies and nerds. Like, there's a holo-waifu joke and you may laugh if you know what a waifu is or what the dream of the fisherman's wife is, but you'll also laugh if you merely know that anime exists and remember from school how weird the people who like it are. Or you may not get a reference to a certain movie or notice how how weirdly contradictory all the tech is, but hell, DANGERZONE!

Bob's Burgers does decent for ratings and they keep renewing it. As long as they don't mess with it's timeslot too much, its probably safe for at least a few more seasons.

30 Rock included the line "you can't have a Lemon party without old Dick"

i am of the belief that the entire show might have been scaffolding to justify that one line

i like it. it's certainly better than the last two seasons

i still think Archer Vice was necessary because it would have sucked to seen it stuck in neutral for another season like it was in season 4. gently caress turning Pam into a one-joke pony tho

I liked archer vice more than the previous season. I guess cause it just decided to jump the shark. The formula was getting a bit tired as someone else said.

they should go back to making Sea Labs, imo.

Yeah I couldn't get into the show. It's just pointlessly mean and the jokes are bad/repetitive. I do constantly yell at my wife "This is how you get ants!!" any time she leaves an apple core or any food out. I love shows about assholes, can't get enough Always Sunny. And I like cartoons like Venture Brothers and Rick and Morty and can enjoy a Bob's burgers. Archer? I find my self annoyed, mildly offended, or just bored with most of it.

I agree with this, and by extension the OP. I think I laughed twice in total watching the series, once at a Pacman Jones joke and another at something else.

I do make an active effort not to be a snob and I recognize the quality of Archer but well, it is what it is-- an Adult Swim cartoon for jocks instead of burnouts/nerds.

Exact same here.

It's impressive how Archer and Bob Belcher have essentially the same voice, but John H Benjamin gives Bob a layer of insecurity and anxiety that sets the character apart.
