Well, I’m glad you already enjoy the movie.

Like, back when I watched it, he was hand wringing over the psychotic little girl that killed her sister and "befriended" a walker in The Walking Dead, because ehi did Carol need to kill such an innocent child?
Lana’s been deconstructed so thoroughly that it’s hard to re-invest. Unlike Archer, she’s close enough to being a decent/sane human being that it gets sadder and sadder to watch her fail. It’s certainly true to life that some people don’t break the cycle, but meh. “You’re turning into Archer” is just an echo of…
Are we not going to talk about everything involving Lana? I don’t know how to feel about her season long arc, and after everything she pulled all of a sudden getting to walk out with the moral higher low ground.
Judging by how this episode ended, I’m pretty sure it was a series finale, and the renewal for another season came way after the entire season was already completed. It feels so much like a series finale and not just regular season ending, especially with Jessica Walter stuff in the end.
Yeah, it’s such a weird way to spend a ton of money. There are like a dozen animated shows that probably cost half as much to animate and look twice as good. Tuca and Bertie comes to mind immediately.
That moment when Archer finds Lana in tears in his bend and sits next her was weirdly affecting, like I shouldn’t have that much emotional stake in the lives of two cartoon characters.
A perfect ending for Mallory Archer and Ron Cadillac and touching tribute to the late Jessica Walter and the late Ron Leibman. It’s so much harder to laugh at this ridiculous life without them around.
I know he has an EP credit and is “involved” with the show but starting with season 7, it seemed like he wanted to end Archer but FXX wanted more so he asked for some promise to keep making shows as long as he could do whatever the hell he wanted, and they said yes, and that’s how we ended up with the coma seasons,…
I’m with ya, this episode was fantastic through and through. Barry using out of place nursery rhymes really cracked me up lol.
That last shot though. Goddammit.
the ending was as perfect as could be under the circumstances—normally I am a bit of a robot emotionally but the last few months have sucked for me so it actually made me tear up a little realizing Mallory wouldn’t be around any more (RIP Jessica Walter)—but it also made me feel stronger than ever that the series…
Even if it’s clear (contrary to the show’s statement) Jessica Walter didn’t get the chance to record all the planned scripts (I clocked almost all of her lines this episode from other seasons) I thought the ending worked great. I wasn’t expecting it, and I was so glad to see how they sent Mallory off: just as Jessica…
That moment where Archer quietly just puts his hand on crying Lana’s shoulder. Perfect!
I knew that Jessica Walter’s sendoff had to be coming, it was the end of the season. Damn if it didn’t land. Her and Ron, forever making life hell for some poor wait staff at a procession of resorts paid off by Ron’s dealerships and Malory’s likely hidden/embezzled millions.
That send off hit me harder than I thought it would. Very well done.
Yeah I think that’s largely my feeling. I was happy enough with it, and I will watch it if there’s a second season. I think they were still figuring things out this season, and that uncertainty shows.
I loved it. Every second of it. I’ve been a bigger fan of this season than the reviews have, and that definitely included the finale, where I thought it was generally firing on all cylinders. That extended, especially, to the last scene. I thought Mallory’s fight scene was going to be her awesome send-off, and I was…
No.
If there is another season coming, can someone else review it?
