With numerous people constantly smacking me on the hands for not watching one of the greatest TV shows ever, I finally got into watching F/X’s Archer. Once again, I’m kicking myself in the ass for not finding this comedic gem sooner. I have said this about many shows, but I’ll gladly stand behind saying Archer is one of the best things on television. The quick witted, often self-referring jokes, the stellar cast, and one of the most lovable douche bags on TV, Archer has every element to be a casual comedy to keep up with. It doesn’t matter if you’re alone in a room or in circled by friends, Archer will surely bring you the laughs every Thursday night.
Sterling Archer (brilliantly voiced by H. Jon Benjamin) is feared by all governments for being the most dangerous field agent out there. He’s got all the best qualities of James Bond: deadly with a pistol, a taste for fancy drinks, and a tendency to flirt with all sorts of women. The difference? He’s completely aware of how awesome he is and selfishly rubs it in everyone’s face. Working for the government agency ISIS, with his alcoholic mother (Jessica Walter) at the helm, Archer engages in different missions each episode. With the help (or without in most cases) of his co-workers, he always manages to finish the mission. Or at least, comes out of it alive.
