Is anybody watching Archer?

[Malenko]

apparently me?  I dont get all the references, but that's every show ever. This season was a little off, some episodes just not that good but Pam as a nun was great.

[CoryBee]

Absolutely love this show, has me laughing way too much every episode.

Pam's character is smurfin awesome

Cyril bare-backed Pam!  ---goshdarn---, I woulda spanked that piggy long ago!

I noticed in one of the episodes, there was a 'Jessica Walter movie' cameo, for want of a better phrase. She was in a 60's movie called Grand Prix, set in Monaco. And sure enough, in the Archer episode when they go to the Monaco Grand Prix, it features (inexplicably until you know why) 1960's Grand Prix cars (",)

I'm terrible at making these connections normally. It got me thinking, are there more references like this in Archer? Perhaps every episode?

I saw that episode. Didn't get it at all. But I don't watch any sports or even tv, so I have no idea what shoes or clothes they're wearing, let alone what kind of cars are being driven.

Beniot....


BALLS!


most of the first season or 2 of archer was set in an obscure reference, with even more references all around just like the Monaco episode.

You couldn't tell that they weren't the latest type of Grand Prix car?

[Gray_Area]

@Malenko: oh, well that makes sense why it's so bizarre. Layers of it.

No idea. Seriously, I get NO media exposure, aside from what I might see while out and about (which is very occasional), at my parents' house (which I usually leave the room from anyways - when we're watching M.A.S.H. I mute the tv during commercials), or what's said here.

So, unless you googled it, you can't tell which one of these cars is from 1961, and which is from 2013?

Obviously the bottom one is newer, since they didn't have self-driving cars in the 60's.

HEHN HEHN HEHN, YEAH.

Um, if you showed me both those cars, I wouldn't bat an eye much at either of them - except that I like the 'lines' of the bottom car much better. If you asked me which was older, just out of the blue you know, I'd have to stop and look and think. I might ask you a question like, 'What is each for?', first. If you said they were for the same thing, I'd probably pick the top one.

[shmokes]

You would guess that the one on glorified bicycle tires is the newer one?

I think he has that problem where people can't recognise faces, what's that called? Either that or he is an old woman...

I don't know much about racing, of any kind. Even bike racing. I don't care.

Nor does my mother, but I bet she can tell which of those is the older car...

She's likely (been) around males who do, though. In contrast, my aunt was out of the house most days most of her life - teaching, giving massages, interacting with people in various ways - and she probably would've given the same or similar answer I did.

[shmokes]

Science! Send her the pics!

No. Why?
