I was disappointed when they did that Mexican coyote episode that they did not have Dicky Woodhouse as one of the people trying to sneak across the border.

Ah yes, the Wee Baby Seamus would be a toddler by now. Wonder how Trinette is raising him.

Woodhouse is a heroin addict. But maybe it belongs to Reggie the Leemur.

Well I'm pretty sure they weren't Japanese.

But Archer gets the best ones with Ray:

It is Colombia. They aren't just known for coffee. Is it just me, or does Archer's plan really make no sense when you consider they were attempting to sell their cocaine to Colombian cartels that already produce and traffic large volumes of it?

I just thought that Cyril, being a lousy shot, would miss the Narcos and damage the plane when he was laying down his suppressing fiiiirrreeeeee.

At the impromptu wedding of Sterling and Katya

"Hey, hands off the goods!"

What happens in Gstaad stays in Gstaad. Now who needs a shower? This girl!

So in the end they managed to recoup the cocaine they've squandered and then some. My favorite thing about Archer is how he just embraces the absurdity of his consistent good fortune by being happy-go-lucky in even the most fucked up situations.

Well it's something I read a lot about as a boy. Treasure Island was one of my favorite books so I'm familiar with the set up.

Well to be fair, the real Anne Bonny was bisexual and had an intimate relationship with both Calico Jack Rackham and Mary Read. Wonder if they'll introduce Mary Read next season. She certainly challenged gender roles at the time by dressing as a man to fight in wars.

I'm sure Vane will be taxing the brothel for protection money, but the point was to banish Jack from sailing since he had proven himself to be disloyal to his shipmates.

That would be a very clever way of doing it and I like it. Certainly Billy Bones is a more badass and pirate-y name than Dufrense.

So I came into this season hoping for a poor man's 'Game of Thrones' and since that's what I got with a little extra in terms of developed characters and acting, I'm not at all disappointed with this show and will back next season.

Got to give the show points for putting sororicide and the execution of an 11 year old in the same episode.

That would be an interesting development. The family seems naturally irreligious, but you'd think as part of their cover they would nominally be something, like Catholic or Methodist or whatever.

I really hope they don't go with the fake pregnancy con with Stan. It just seems too obvious for this show.

Any kids or spouses their agents might have in the field are treated as a means to an end for establishing cover as far as the Center is concerned.
