Re: Archer Season 7
So is Hulu the only place to get Archer (if I don't have cable)?
I tried Hulu 5 years ago and hated the interface and the ads. Has it gotten any better?

Re: Archer Season 7
If you can access Netflix Canada we have the complete series. They just added season 9 a few days ago.

Re: Archer Season 7
The Archer question was one of the reasons that kept me from cutting the cord years ago. It was on NetFlix but google says they left this year.
If it's streaming you want
https://decider.com/2018/07/25/how-to-stream-fx-2/
The problem is that FX streaming requires cable.Seasons 1 through 8 are available on Hulu and FX+. Season 9, known as Archer Dreamland, is streaming on FXNOW and FX+.
I thought Hulu plus wasn't supposed to have ads. I was considering them in my last round of "do I really need cable?"

Re: Archer Season 7
There is an almost ad free version that is $1 more /month. From what I recall, there are still some programs that they run ads on. Not sure if Archer is one of those.LordMortis wrote: ↑Wed Sep 19, 2018 10:42 am I thought Hulu plus wasn't supposed to have ads. I was considering them in my last round of "do I really need cable?"

Hulu
FAQWhen you subscribe, you can now choose between our No Commercials plan ($11.99/month) and our existing Limited Commercials plan (that one’s still $7.99/month). You can also add SHOWTIME® to your subscription – no matter which plan you choose. Your Hulu experience is now customizable like never before. It’s TV your way. Like it should be.
A small number of shows aren’t included in the Hulu No Commercials plan.
While this list of shows may change, they are currently:
- Grey’s Anatomy
- Once Upon a Time
- Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
- Scandal
- New Girl
- How to Get Away with Murder
These shows will still stream uninterrupted, but with a short commercial played before and after each episode.
It's almost as if people are the problem.

Re: Archer Season 7
Holy cow - $4 for no commercials (with some exceptions)?!? That makes it a harder question.
Do they allow you to search for shows if you are not signed up? (I'm at work and it's blocked.)

ARCHER PREMIERES SEPTEMBER 16 ON FX
AVAILABLE NEXT DAY ON HULU
Sterling Archer has returned to the spy world after a three-year coma. While many things changed during his absence, Archer is confident it will take just a little time for him to reset things back to the old ways. The problem: does the rest of the team want that? Everyone else has been doing pretty well and may not be ready for him to throw a wrench in their well-oiled machine.

Re: Archer Season 7
Caught Napping, the latest Archer episode, is pure classic Archer.
My favorite joke of the season is one I’m not even sure of its meaning.
Lana (in rampage mode): “I’m going to fill you so full of lead, local children’s test scores are gonna go down!”
I think it means there won’t be enough lead left to make pencils, but even Archer points out Lana is rampaging and isn’t making sense. Still, it was so absurd it made me laugh. Also...Pam and Krieger still rock. That is all.

I thought of the lead exposure angle but figured that was too obvious/didn’t really work. But maybe I’m wrong.

So here's the explanation of the joke courtesy of the CDC:
CDC.gov wrote:No safe level of lead exposure in children has been identified.
Exposure to lead can seriously harm a child’s health and cause well-documented adverse effects such as:
This can cause:
- Damage to the brain and nervous system
- Slowed growth and development
- Learning and behavior problems
- Hearing and speech problems
- Lower IQ
- Decreased ability to pay attention
- Underperformance in school

Yes, I’m aware of that. Hence my aside that it was absurd and didn’t make sense (beyond the fact it IS called pencil “lead”).Anonymous Bosch wrote: ↑Fri Oct 23, 2020 9:56 pm

So it was the obvious one I threw out initially in favor of the more absurd one I felt was SO absurd it was funnier. Ah well. I overthunk it.So here's the explanation of the joke courtesy of the CDC:

Anyway, one other thing I’ve noticed this season is there seems to be an increased amount of name dropping. They’ll name drop some obscure writer, philosopher, actor, whatever as part of an analogy or insult. I mean, it’s something they’ve done to a lesser extent since the show debuted, but it seems to really be increasing lately.

Re: Archer Season 7
I think they should just wrap it up. Archer got progressively less funny after season 5. Apparently the PC police took over because the jokes used to be so raunchy and mean and racey UN PC and now its like... I might get a smirk or two out of season 9 but that's it. And season 8 just sucked.
George Coe's dead, Jessica Walther is dead. Bury it. Soon. One more season to wrap things up then done. Let it die.

Re: Archer Season 7
Absolutely my favorite, but I left it off because I'm not sure whether that's because it was actually really good, or just because I love the theme (and the source inspiration) so much.

Re: Archer Season 7
I have never heard of Tales of the Gold Monkey and can't imagine Stephen Collins in that role. Was the show any good? Just the intro was enough to make a lot of the Archer I saw make more sense (or at least explain why people would like it).

Re: Archer Season 7
It ran for one season in... 1981, I think. At the time it was my favorite show in the world, although it was typical 80s cheese. It hit the air right about the same time as Raiders of the Lost Ark, and a lot of people thought it was a cash in (it wasn't - it was in the works before Raiders, and was based on a 1930s film.) It was cancelled mostly due to production costs and mediocre ratings. It was forgotten for a long time, then became a sort of cult classic.
Archer wasn't the only show it inspired:

Watched Tales of the Gold Monkey along with Bring'Em Back Alive with Bruce Boxleitner. Tales was by far the better show to me and my favorite at the time. And Marta DuBois woo wooo. Loved it when she played the devil in an ep of Star Trek the Next Generation. RIP.
