Cacophony. That's pretty. What's it mean?

Series 2, perhaps?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
H Jon Benjamin is on two channels at the same time. And I have a DVR so I can watch one while I record the other. I'm in comedy heaven!
(the other show is Important Things with Demitri Martin)

I thought that was him! I tried to catch the credits, but they went by too fast.
Archer continues to be hilarious in the most offensive ways possible. And I just realized that Cyril is a dead ringer for Keith Olbermann.

aka, The Man Who Taught Emmett the Meaning of Conundrum.
So we've been watching Archer (at bon's prompting) and we're liking it. ("We" being Emmett and myself.) For me it plays like a cross between Venture Bros. and Sealab. Not as much character depth as VB, but not as whacked out, joke-first as Sealab.
Besides, they had a Zeppelin episode! Excuse me, rigid airship.
For the record now, bon is now two for two on comedy pimpage to me (30 Rock, Archer). Plus she puts together a mean Trip Hop Mix Tape that will immediately transport you back in time into a LFN episode set in Prague in the mid-nineties.

Exactly. That, plus the inevitable Bluth family overtones between Archer and his mom.

I could not stop laughng about "rigid airship" I do the same thing when people call zeppelins "blimps" in my presence. Blimps are limp!
And last night I caught the chekov gun episode. I knew the rule (if you introduce a gun in the first act it must go off by the third) but not the attribution.
Charles Whitman Sampler. Oh dear. That was the same guy who plays Frylock, no?

Hasn't Jessica Walter had the wildest career?
Mission Impossible, Play Misty For Me, Tapeheads, Morgan Le Fay in the Dr. Strange TV movie, Arrested Development, Archer...
I used to get her mixed up with Diana Muldaur. They tended to play the same kind of characters: smart, patrician, a bit icy, slightly dangerous.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Parks and Rec is next!
Also, Archer was renewed for a second season, so that's good.
