Can we please get back to the plot now?

I enjoy filler as much as the next person but we just had a season of that! It's time for Archer to wake up from his coma and move back to his storyline. This season looks exactly like last season just in a different location. Fall in love with Lana? Check. Sleep with Cheryl? Check. Robo-Barry shows up and tries to kill him? Probably. Why can't they go back to being spies? Just because they can't be "Isis" anymore doesn't mean they can't create a new agency. It's going to be very hard for me to muster up the energy to power through this season.

This was great I had no idea what was going on :D Archer returns with another brand new story filled with mystery, alcohol and guns

Danger Island reignited the fire in my soul
ked000418 May 2018
I have always been a major fan of Archer, H Jon Benjamin, and Adam Reed (as well as the ENTIRE cast). I started to feel like the show lost a bit of direction after Archer Vice, which was understandable given a variety of reasons, but the jokes and brilliantly worked in allusions still easily held it above everything else on television. However, in season 7, it sort of felt like they'd lost "that thing," I.e. the show's natural charisma, and jokes started feeling a bit forced. But, by season 8 (Dreamland) they were back. I loved their decision to use the last three seasons to really get creative and Danger Island has just been absurdly hilarious and supremely witty. This is one of those shows I wish would live forever, but that's never the case unless you're The Simpsons. Those inexplicably unhappy about Danger Island, put bluntly, must just hate change, which is unfortunate because they're denying themselves the enjoyment of possibly the 2nd to last season...which again is absolutely solid. Don't hurt yourselves, babies. Open your hearts and let the booze and breadfruit soothe you.

Much better

The premise is much better. The way it was written seems much closer to what the series sat out to be.

Please let this show die in peace!

Archer is no longer the same: convolunted story lines, sophomoric jokes, nothing that ever made previous seasons a hit.

At this point, the best thing to do is to let the series die without tarnishing whatever is left of its legacy.

Please no...
freemart26 April 2018
After long wait since 8th series for this for me genius show to return, I just could not believe what I got. It went from unique script to middle school conversation nonsence, so much I dont believe that Mr Reed even wrote this. Please let it be after next episode just a distante laughable memory...

Visualy stuning as always, but that is so not the point of this show.

Bye, bye Archer

Season 9 is a waste of time. Archer was a very funny stupid tv show. Now is just stupid
