They fucked it up with the dream seasons and the seasons after are just a sad and unfunny.

It started going south with the cocaine stuff. When they went to California or whatever was the last time I watched it I don't think I made it through

I respect the dream seasons for taking the big swing even if they didn't always hit, because it was clearly one guy's hairbrained experiment. The last few seasons were just a soulless hard resent that had the network taking over the show completely.

I liked the post-Dreamland seasons. They had actual stories and arcs rather than just being farces to hang jokes on. Not that I didn't like the other seasons, just felt it got better as it went on.

Also, Dreamland 1999 star fighter Cheryl gets my dick so hard you can smell it.

The coma seasons were fine.

However, after he wakes up it just gets unfunny due to the self-aware subversion

Seaons 1-3 and maybe 4 were peak. I stopped watching at around the Archer Vice arc and everything I've heard about the show since has only validated my decision.

I liked the island one even though you're not allowed to say that here because nazis get offended by being the bad guys.

100% agree. It's great for the first two, maybe three seasons, and still very watchable up to the coma seasons. After that it fucks up the formula by trying to shit all over Archer. We know he's an asshole, that's the joke, the humor comes from him constantly being awesome at his job despite being a drunk jackass.
I think it all comes at the expense of the writers feeling like it was bad to make edgy jokes and needing to bring Archer down a peg for moral reasons, or whatever. But that's not funny, and it was the template the show was built on.

Fuhrer Figgis was fun, and that Nazi mechsuit was cool. Real lame how the Stormtroopers got fucked by spear chucking tribals, but the Pervitin jokes were almost worth it.

Yeah that really killed it for me. I like seeing a drunk chad do spy stuff that's the whole reason I watched the show. Once that changed it just felt like writers trying to take shots at their childhood bullies. For how much they champion therapy it doesn't seem to be working. Get help, don't channel it into your work.

Exactly this. Baffling that it apparently had 14 seasons.

I watched it all the way through, it was never bad but very average and unmemorable by the later seasons, the sendoff for Malory was nice though

Happens to all animated shows that run on for too long, they just start rehashing the same jokes/characters/ideas and get sloppy, it's currently happening to Rick and Morty

I havent watch the last 2 seasons but I swear they were going to subvert us into β€œhe is still in a coma after all” because of a scene post-coma where he glitched. I think it was Barry related. Dont think it happened again after that.

It's honestly an acquired taste, but if you like it, it's a pretty solid watch all the way through. I certainly didn't like it much when I first seen it during its initial run. It was watching reruns at work that really introduced me to a more general picture of the series, which grew on me.

It was great then at the Vice season and afterwards it's like the comedy just dropped. It was enjoyable as a show but that's it.

Tf you mean "good comedy writing"? Imagine if all of Seinfeld was them saying "master of my domain" four times every episode. That's Archer.

Why is Seinfeld season 4 held in such high regard? It was honestly my least favorite one because of all the runtime dedicated to the overarching story.

the problem is they ran through all their storylines too quickly and started repeating stuff, which became too apparent in the dream seasons where literally the same thing happens multiple times. barry gets turned into a cyborg a total of 5 times throughout the series, its insane.

>>213929886
by then it was too late. they came up with new ideas but all the characters had already gone through their character arcs so it didn't make sense. it felt like everything reverted back to season 1 and nothing effected the characters in anyway.

I liked Vice. That was the only good season where they weren't spies.
