What the hell happened to Woodhouse's voice? :( It just sounds wrong now, and he was one of my favourite characters. I was actually hoping they were going to kill him off in this episode somehow to avoid making us suffer with what sounds like a different voice actor.

Seriously. His voice was the only thing distracting from what was otherwise another great episode.

Jazz hands!

Good episode aside from that, but considering the episode revolved around the Pope/Woodhouse, both voiced by the same guy, it was a big distraction to me.

But as usual, Krieger was great. :heart Best character ever.

Same voice actor.  But he does sound different.

100% it's the same voice actor? If so, maybe the throaty voice was too much of a strain on the old guy's voice? It doesn't sound right. It doesn't have that same sense of worthlessness and pity that the character should have.

Oh thank goodness, I wasn't the only one who noticed that his voice was way off.

During the first part of this 2 parter, I thought the Sealab thing was coincidental, but then I realized the captain's name was Murphy, the Sealab looked exactly like in Sealab 2021, and they had a soda machine with the name "GOZ" on it. Nice touch.

Dunno about the guy on the far left, but the second one from the left is Adam Reed, the creator/sole writer/genius behind the show (also the voice of Ray).

I've been dreading this season since hearing about the changes they were making a little while ago, and I'm still not entirely sold on the concept, but it was a great first episode to the season. I didn't like the idea of the preview montage at the end though. When it was mentioned someone was getting killed off, you just knew who it was going to be. :lol So fitting.

Jdging by the new intro, it looks like Krieger has been officially upgraded to a main character now. That can only be a good thing.

Had friends over for the premier, we all loved it. Can't wait to see this whole season.

After the first episode, I felt it's been going downhill a bit, but tonight's episode was definitely the funniest of the season so far. Hilarious from start to finish.

My gripe is still that they don't know what they're doing with some of the side characters now that they've changed it up. The whole country singer thing for Cheryl is lame, and I feel only going to get worse now. Pam's cocaine thing wasn't funny to begin with and has already run its course. Ray hasn't done anything but cry all season.
I'm glad Woodhouse is making more appearances this season, and not sounding weird anymore, and everyone else is settling in nicely to their new roles.

Bumping this thread, I've always wanted to check out this show but never had the time. I'm putting on the pilot right now.

So,

I just started watching Archer like a week ago. I have utterly fallen in love with the show and made it 1 season in, and then yesterday Netflix removed it  >:( :censored >:(

God dammit

Do you want withdrawl symptoms? Because that's how you get withdrawl symptoms.

Watching the Archer 1999 series now; not totally impressed with the space motif, but just heard a joke that reminded me why I love this show so much.

In this universe, Krieger is an android, and at one point, Mallory meets him in his quarters and says "you come here to dream of electric sheep?" and he says "Don't be a dick; androids can't dream!"

Of course, the movie Blade Runner was based on the novel "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" by none other than Philip K. Dick.

BUMP. Not sure if anybody else is still watching Archer, but I got back into the show this season. I had forgotten Jessica Walter passed away but they managed to end the season with a very nice little sendoff for Mallory.

I'll watch it; I always wait until the season has aired, then watch them in clumps of three or four episodes.

I'm several seasons behind but I did watch that clip because I was curious. It was a beautiful send off for both of those characters. Somebody was cutting onions over here.

Unfortunately I allowed this show to completely fall off my radar. I recall seeing she died but it never occurred to me how the show would handle it. I found the bit on YouTube and without the context of the episode, or knowledge of whatever has been going on in with Mallory, Archer, and the crew, I thought it was wonderful.
