The Morning After: Archer and the Bandit
In one of my favorite Archer episodes ever, Sterling and Lana have an adventure in a Florida Louisiana swamp, which is mainly exciting to Archer for its resonances with the Burt Reynolds classic Gator. “I’ve been waiting my …

TV Tonight: Season 7 of Sunny and an Archer Bonus
Consider this more a public service announcement than a review (I’ve been too busy with fall pilots to get through all the screeners), but FX’s Thursday comedy block returns tonight, a week before NBC’s does. Starting off is It’s …

The Morning After: Stop… Pooping!
[vodpod id=Video.5451784&w=425&h=350&fv=]
So here’s the deal: Now that Parks and Recreation is back and Archer has returned, on Thursday night we have several sitcoms that are capable of delivering a killer episode. Last season I tried for a while doing a picture gallery of Thursday comedies with paragraph reviews, but I felt I managed …

TV Tonight: Archer
[vodpod id=Video.5346888&w=425&h=350&fv=]
As a critic, there are screeners I watch out of obligation, screeners I watch studiously and screeners I gobble up immediately upon getting them, like a starving man gorging himself on chocolates. FX’s Archer is in the last category, a hilarious animated spy parody (with voice talent including …

The Morning After: The Spy Who LOLed Me
NBC’s comedies were in reruns last night, but that doesn’t mean there was no new comedy. FX’s Archer aired a new episode last night, and although I won’t discuss the specific episode—because I’m not sure if FX has been airing episodes in the order I received them—I can say that as I watched the five episodes I was sent in advance, …

TV Tonight: Archer
Though I’ve fallen behind on The Venture Brothers, I tend to watch more Adult Swim than I blog about here. Partly because so many of the late-night toons are difficult to describe to the uninitiated, partly because people who love them already really love them, and people who don’t, or wouldn’t, tend to tune out when I evangelize for …

Vacation Robo-Post: What Are You Looking Forward to in 2010?
I may be on vacation, but that doesn’t mean that I’m not working. Depending on how you define “work.” As I write this, I’m already looking at a tall stack of screeners to watch for midseason 2010 (including Big Love, 24 and Chuck for January). And there’s quite a roster of high-profile new projects for 2010 already. After the jump, I …

FX's Former Lawman Gets Justified
FX announced its midseason schedule today. On tap: Archer, Damages and Nip/Tuck (doesn’t it feel like Nip/Tuck is always returning?) in January; a new Louis C.K. comedy, Louie, in the spring; and in March, the much-anticipated (by me, anyway) Timothy Olyphant drama, once called Lawman, which will now be titled Justified.
Looking forward …

Archer's Secret (Agent) Debut
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bfx_V2mYT1w]
It’s not often that I get a PR pitch from a network asking me not to write about a new show it’s debuting. But last week FX wrote to say that it was sneak-peeking the first episode of its animated spy comedy Archer (starring the voices of H. Jon Benjamin, Aisha Tyler and Jessica …
