The More You Know: You know who loves funny stories? David Puddy.
For some thoughts about tonight's "Archer," read this post on Inside Pulse.
  1. We find out immediately that Archer is missing and the usual suspects within Isis can’t find him, so his mother, Mallory, has called in a manhunter named Rip Riley to find him played, hilariously, by Family Guy’s Patrick Warburton.
  1. So Riley, naturally, immediately finds Archer and then captures him despite a cold bottle to the face.
  1. Archer, having seen his fiancĂ©e murdered in front of him at the end of last season: “I need to grieve!” Riley replies, “By tending bar and banging newlyweds?” “Apparently, that’s my grieving process.” I love H Jon Benjamin’s delivery of everything.
  1. Pam on Lana’s feelings for Archer: “You’re so hot for him, I could reheat this chili in yer cooch, Pam.” From the most annoying character early to a total scene stealer now.
  1. Of course, Archer, threatened by drowning refuses to give up his booze, you know, except to shoot a shark in the freaking face!
  1. And pirates. Damn, this show hits everything I love, even Archer didn’t believe they were real.
  1. The pirates wine and dine Archer to get their ransom and take him to a PIRATE FORTRESS! But a James Bond watch saves him, as Archer and Riley take everyone out and they discuss tinnitus. Once they’re done and Archer has killed ten pirates, “Wow, if ten year old me knew that, he would get a huge boner.”
  1. And now, Pirate King Archer! Tons of women, booze and a pirate fort!
  1. Next episode, of course, they’ll need to escape, as Archer or Lana or someone will totally ruin his new sweet gig, but goddamn, Pirate King Archer!
  1. A lot of the second season focused too much on the supporting cast at the cost of Archer being awesome. Well, Pirate King Archer with a Patrick Warburton played Rip Riley to play off? No longer a concern. Rating? 9/10.
