“My process is more organic” Personally, I don’t really follow Sunny anymore. I really liked the first couple of seasons when it had a home made, low-rent quality, but then it got a little too polished, if that makes sense. I did find last night’s episode pretty good, but I love Archer. Me and a colleague have been quoting the show to each other all day. ---

> [@DigitalC](#): > > So what’s the veredict? Archer or Sunny? personally i thought Sunny was way funnier last night. Sunny was probably better. I suspect this three-week arc in Archer is mainly to link Seasons 2 & 3 together and get off with a bang in January. Neither were at their best but neither was a disappointment either. ---

I’d say both were solid, but not great. The problem with Sunny is that Dennis, Mac, and Dee didn’t really do anything. Dennis and Mac went to the doctor and never went anwhere. Dee had one scene that was memorable. Plus, the most unrealistic part (which when you’re criticizing Sunny is insane, of course) was that Dee didn’t go back to Roxie’s body and strip the roll of bills off her after they dropped her body in the hallway. Archer was just missing too much from the supporting cast. -Joe ---

I downloaded this episode this morning and thought it was fantastic! I LOL’d a few times. I’m now rewatching. Oh, and… “And watch out for that Adolph Hitler, he’s a bad egg.” ---

“Don’t just sit there sweating like a gigantic cheese.” _slap_ Haha. I can’t wait for the next episode. ---

All I know about this show is that the wiki article needs a much better explanation of the show. They don’t even mention that it’s a comedy except in the side bar. Maybe one of you guys can give me a better premise? (I’d ask you to fix the wiki article, but I’m not sure if that’s allowed here.) ---

Of course, after watching a video on SAFE FIRE-RETARDANT HELIUM that kept emphsizing how FIRE-RETARDANT HELIUM is, she actually did grasp that point. -Joe [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/archers-back-tomorrow/596272.md?page=2) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/archers-back-tomorrow/596272.md?page=4)
