This is much much better than Archer Vice.

Good news.

Just watched the first episode, and yeah, it's still pretty good. Basically still just the spy stuff in a different office. Very LA Confidential feel to it, as well.

No, I believe it's taking place inside Archer's mind whilst he's in a coma due to the events of the end of Season 7

So 1, I had no idea this had been out for 2 months. 2, 15 minutes into the first episode and I'm already bored as strawberry float.

EDIT: Also, Aisha Tyler cannot sing.

It's really gooseberry fool. I'm about 5 episodes in and think I've smiled twice.

It feels like one big ego project and just isn't that funny.

It's up on Netflix now, it's definitely down there with Archer Vice quality wise so far.

It's so...slow. Archer was at its best when it was a rapid fire, 60 jokes per second gabbathon. This is not. This is slow, plot heavy cliche. Although it's nice to see/hear Jeffrey Tambor again.

EDIT: The only funny bit so far is the constant "buddum tsssh" at the club, alongside Ray's protestations.

Gave up on the latest season, absolutely loved the earlier ones as well.

"Executive producer Matt Thompson painted the scene: It is spring 1939, the Japanese are invading China, Germany just annexed Austria, and “in the middle of this, seaplane pilot and semi-functioning alcoholic Sterling Archer is drinking, screwing, gambling, and generally bumbling around French Polynesia with a smart-ass parrot named Crackers,” he revealed. “Welcome to Danger Island.”

I actually flipped on the last series. Started off hating it then realised it was trying to do something different and ended up liking it. It's not as funny or clever as the first 2 seasons, but it wasn't trying to be.

I was thinking it might be interesting for a future season to do a bit of a timeskip and have Archer himself now running ISIS and AJ is now the secret agent. She is an Archer after all.

Only watched the first episode of the latest season so far so it's too early to judge for me.

What have people got against Archer Vice? Whilst it was different in terms of setting I can't say I noticed any major drop in quality personally.
