Anyone else absolutely loving this pilot? On FX right now and will show again after the re-air of the It's Always Sunny season premier.

This pilot is ****ing hysterical. Cannot wait till January when the show really starts.

I stopped watching it during the first scene. Thought it seemed too odd for me. That and I'm not an animation fan.

Same dude who did Frisky Dingo.

I love crude animated shows like this. Off the wall comedy FTW.

I was somewhat enjoying it. A lot of hit or miss jokes. Roomate couldn't take it and asked if we could turn it off.

Reminded me of Frisky Dingo. I laughed quite a bit.

Especially about "just the tip."

My roommates and I agreed on its greatness. I'm glad I'm not the only one who enjoyed it. Do you want ants?

Anyone one who digs this show, which seems funny, must watch both seasons of Frisky Dingo first. FD is by far one of the most underrated, un-heard of cartoons ever. Xander Crews/Barnaby Jones is just so absurdly funny.

Blinkfan, if I remember correctly, you really dug Breaking Bad, which is my favorite drama. Frisky Dingo, while not my favorite cartoon ever, is surely in my top 5. Watch it.

Archer seems like it does have potential. Adam Reed is a comic genius.

How can one be "not an animation fan." There's such a huge number of possibilities for an animated show, it's sort of silly to lump them in together.

Frisky Dingo was awesome. So disappointing that it ended after only 2 seasons.

bumping this.

funny freaking show! last weeks episode with the black spy who Archer thinks is banging his mom was hilarious. Sterling Archer is one of the best cartoon characters on tv. In my mind he is just a step behind Xander Crews/Barnaby Jones/Awesome X.

If you havent watched this show....do, it is the funnniest cartoon on TV at the moment.

Watched two episodes online last night, pretty ****ing funny!

The "just the tip" part had me laughing the hardest.

"The secret ingredient is phone."

That might have been the single funniest line in an animated show in the last 5 years.

Kreiger is the breakout character on this show. You heard it here first.

Archer is no longer in the Danger Zone....

It's been renewed for 13 more episodes.
Great news!

Great news!
Which was a long shot at best this time last week.

I'd guess the only reason it got renewed is because it was critically acclaimed, cheap to make and saw a minor climb in the ratings against the Olympics where everything else dropped.

I thought so too, but then I saw tvbythenumbers comparison to other FX comedies that have been renewed. Turns out Archer does about the same as the others FX has renewed recently.

I just started watching this show, and I'm sorry I waited so long. It's pretty much awesome.
