"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

However, I hear there are these nifty things called DVDs, so perhaps we should check them out.

Archer is the funniest thing in the world right now. So...get it.

Archer is the funniest thing in the world right now.

Are you watching Bob's Burgers?

No. Is it funnier than Archer?

Time for a cross show challenge! Winner? Us!

I'll have to check out the DVDs to compare. And you watch Bob's Burgers to compare.

Andrew Jackson would have loved this kind of duel.

Okay, maybe not.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Andrew Jackson would have loved any kind of duel, as long as it cut into time not spent duelling, his least favourite category.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Maybe it's due to having recently lost a cousin to cancer, but most of Archer just fell flat to me. Though I did laugh at the sight gags with the X-rays.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I can't tell you all how happy I am to be part of the H Jon Benjamin love fest. I love Archer and Home Movies and (not until the stuck-in-the-wall episode but now) Bob's Burgers. As a side note, it took me looking up the Exstacy song to find out Mitch Hedberg was on Home Movies too.

Ooh and also, I think it's off the air now, but Demetri Martin featured Jon Benjamin on his show. I still chuckle thinking about him trying to get a pizza delivered to the middle of his swimming pool.

I'm caught up on Outsourced - my favorite episode by far. Only one joke made me cringe. I wonder why one rat was CGI and the other was wrangled. I wish every day could be Holi.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

It was a great episode, Laga. I didn't even notice a CGI rat! The one at the end looked real for sure, though.

I'm 99% certain the rat in the air duct was CGI. I mean (dur, they were both in the air duct) the one in the middle of the episode was mostly in silhouette. He stood on his hind legs, I think it was right before a commercial.
