Season 14 Review: By giving these fantastic characters someone new to talk to, something new to do, the show has found its latest, and one of its most successful, reinventions. Just in time to end, sure—but there is, in the end, something to be said for going out on top. Read full review

Season 2 Review: Congrats to Bob's Burgers star H. Jon Benjamin, who is now voicing the lead on two of TV's funniest shows. [28 Jan 2011, p.68]

Season 13 Review: The majority of what’s been shown thus far is typically lively and hilarious, with plenty of outlandish set pieces, wisecracks, and plot developments sustaining the show’s classic allure. Read full review

Season 7 Review: The work is different, but personality-wise, Archer and his comrades are much the same. At least at first. The show seems to be giving itself license to explore. Read full review

Get ready for some hillarious dialogue and long running gags, Pop culture references and dirty jokes abound. Dont eat popcorn while watching... That's how you get ants.

Funny comedy which differing to other shows like it actually progresses with each episode rather than resetting each week. Cast of characters that boucne of each other well especially as the shoe progresses. Lost interest around season 7 when they started doing alternate realities but stillFunny comedy which differing to other shows like it actually progresses with each episode rather than resetting each week.

The tv show is at its best season 4 and 5 but kind of fell off with seasons 8 and 9 because it ran out of ideas, but the show made a massive comeback with season 10

The first four seasons of Archer are probably some of the best seasons of any adult animation show. Sadly it has had multiple identity crises since and took the same downfall the Simpsons had over the course over three decades, but in only a few short years.

Sadly it has had multiple identity crises since and took the same downfall the Simpsons had over the course over three decades, but in only a few short years. Show continually tries to 'shake things up' doing drastic changes in scenery but relies on the same episode formula, the same predictable 'plot twists' and same jokes.… Expand
