WELCOME TO WHORE ISLAND ARCHER WEEK AT UPROXX! Call Kenny Loggins because we're dedicating the entire week to all things ISIS and the best animated show on television. Over the next couple of days we'll be going live with one Archer-ific feature after another, leading up to Thursday night's premiere (Burt Reynolds people!) that I'll be live blogging as part of a new regular FX comedy weekly conversation. It will be kind of like the GG's open thread but with more ocelot references. Get excited.
It only feels right to get the ball rolling with the best of Code Name "Duchess" and go from there. Even if you've never seen an episode (seriously, get it together) I see no way Sterling Archer doesn't become your spirit guide after this compilation of tactinecks, pirate deaths, hooker phrasing, and more.
Check back in this week for exclusives, giveaways, excessive quoting, and who knows what else. I don't want to make any promises, but it will probably be life-altering.

So much Gold here.
Although I was hoping to see one with Pam’s back tattoo
Be patient, my friend.
Not to be that guy. I enjoy Archer as much as the next guy but the way that everyone swoons over this show is like none of you have ever watched and episode of “Frisky Dingo”. Sterling Archer is the same exact character as Xander Crews which has never received a stitch of credit.
Oh yeah I forgot one last thing. Boosh!
While I think Frisky Dingo is funny, I don’t think it rises to the level of amazing social and cultural references that are in Archer.
Also, Frisky Dingo is great because it lets avid cartoon fans act smug towards those of us who don’t watch a lot of cartoons but who really love Archer.
I always say this to myself. But I enjoy both shows though and I’m just happy someone is talking up the things Adam Reed does now.
@Bob Loblaw Esq. I’m assuming the same smugness you would use if a person were to fail to pick up on an obscure Arrested Development references when used in conversation?
Even Adam Reed admitted that Frisky Dingo is the unspoken cousin of Archer. Good but not in the same league.
The TV equivalent of, I liked Adam’s Reed first album better, you know, before he was cool.
I thought this post was all like kakow, but then I saw ARCHER WEEK and now it’s all like KAKOW.
@Euro Jones, No.
But maybe I would if I knew of an obscure show that was a predecessor to Arrested Development and could work in a reference to that anytime someone talked about Arrested Development.
Mr. Show maybe?
I guess people on the internet really just can’t get along. I like everything you guys are talking about!
Also for the record, Frisky Dingo threw in a lot of references for an 11 minute show. As did Sealab. As did my failed pilot for Hunky Dory: Horse Detective.
@Coked_up_Tebow
It is just a friendly debate. Everyone here agrees (I think so) that both shows were great. I guess I am a little fonder and slightly bitter the way Frisky Dingo ended. It left way too much undone. Seeing how much has been put into Archer to make it a great show myself feel slighted that their could have been a quick 2 episode finale to end the show.
But I came off as “That Guy”. I also liked “Lock, Stock and 2 Smoking Barrels” over “Snatch”, you know before Guy Ritchie became cool and stuff.
this article encapsulates everything i love about this website
Wow. Thanks? I feel the same, in that it allows me to spread that call girl-hooker exchange.
Are they ballistically similar to grapes?
“The thought of me dead gives you an erection?”
“Just half of one, the other half would’ve really missed you”.
I dont think those were the best episodes of Archer. I think there were better ones like the one with President Obama, or Wesley Snipes. I would like to see more episodes where they got like Nicki Manji or Lil Wayne on it or the guys from Reno 911 or Kanye West. When they get celebraties on cartoons then that gets to be real good.
