Archer has Returned

Another Sunday afternoon at the Archer household

I get the sneaky feeling that not enough people in this world are watching "Archer" on FX. The show is just phenomenal and I don't want our readers missing out.

Season 2 premiered last night (10 pm est) and the episode involved all of the following: Twin terrorists with the same girlfriend, Archer being constantly molested by a scantily clad European heiress (17 years-old, by the way), Archer using a home-made flamethrower of sorts to sizzle the terrorists, a topless snowmobile chase involving guns with lots of explosions and a absinthe-induced threesome between a European King, a old woman and a pleasantly plump 30 something. Did I mention the show is a cartoon?

Work Hard, Play Hard

For your information, "Archer" is a play on the spy genre set in some type of mash-up of today and the late Sixties. A typical episode starts with the agency (ISIS) being hired to foil some generic plot (kidnapping, bombing, government coup) which requires the work of the world famous Sterling Archer. The combination of extremely witty writing along with the fact that every character screws everything that walks (and the mission for that matter) makes this show a must-see. Very sensual.

The new episode isn't up yet on Hulu, but there are some old episodes and great clips. More fluff here.
