Yep, really: [Cherlene (Songs from the TV series ARCHER)](https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/cherlene-songs-from-tv-series/id808872288). 🆒 Available now as a pre-order with an expected release date of March 3; 12 songs including “Baby Please Don’t Go” and of course “Danger Zone” (with Kenny Loggins himself). Don’t know if it will change upon release, but right now all the songs are listed as “Album Only”, meaning you can’t buy singles and will have to spring for the whole album @ $11.99 (I’m seriously considering doing so). ---

It is pretty clear that by the end of the season they will have no more cocaine. ---

For me, that was the worst one of the season. I liked a couple of the ones that people were tepid on here, but yesterday’s just didn’t do it for me. I had my hopes up after the last couple of episodes. ---

I watched it this morning and really didn’t like it. The characters just aren’t funny anymore. I’ve been watching season 2 again, and the quality and humor was much better. ---

I’ve liked the rest of the season so I assume that one was just a dud. ---

The show seems to be on auto-pilot in Season 5. Most of the jokes fall flat and both Lana’spregnancy and Pam’s cocaine addiction lost my interest multiple episodes ago. Even the voice actors sound tired (A very bad sign). Hopefully, this will turn out to be an extended dream sequence or something because the series is beginning to fail. ---

> [@obfusciatrist](#): > > I’ve liked the rest of the season so I assume that one was just a dud. Yeah, pretty much the same here. I mean, this season overall has been the least enjoyable (IMHO), but the series sets a high bar and I’ve been able to enjoy and laugh at almost all of this year’s episodes. I’m not even sure I cracked a smile this episode. The timing was just off, the pace was much slower, the jokes were sparse, and even bits of the animation bugged me for some reason. ---

Newest episode again sucked pretty bad. Is someone trying to get out of a contract or something??? ---

Sad to say, I’ve stopped watching it. Only got two tuners for the DVR, and we’ve got Monday Night Raw and Lost Girl in that slot. Archer lost. ☹ ---

I hate to say it but this season has been disappointing. Only because the other seasons were so damned hilarious. ---

I did like the part where Lana didn’t realize who Kenny Loggins was, but I have to agree about it being subpar. ---

Yep. With the caveat that even sub-par Archer is still pretty good. ---

I thought this week’s episode was an improvement over the last few, mainly because the plot was something other than “They lose a bunch of cocaine because of Pam”. Great moments; - Tensions rising between Mallory and Krieger’s anime wife - “Kriegerrands” - “K-Log” apparently having the briefcase from Pulp Fiction - The explanation for the swimming pool - Woodhouse playing drums in Cherlene’s band - Archer’s love of Jim Messina - “Kenny Loggins? Like from Kenny Loggins Roasters?” ---

> [@Smapti](#): > > I thought this week’s episode was an improvement over the last few, mainly because the plot was something other than “They lose a bunch of cocaine because of Pam”. I agree. I read the posts here before I finally watched this week’s episode, so I was expecting the worst, but it wasn’t nearly as bad as last week’s. It was tolerable, and I did actually crack a few smiles and laugh.
