Season 6.
when the cyborgs were introduced
It hasn't died yet. The quality hasn't gone down as much as other shows.

anyone else think every season is a parody of a different spy show? i swear i can't prove it but i think every season parodies a different spy show entire series.
Did it actually die? Or is this a "The new episodes are still watchable but not as good as the originals" thing?
When it stopped being a workplace comedy, so around season 3 or 4.
As an HR guy, I found the jokes about SEPs, deductibles, and flex accounts were nailed perfectly and expertly balanced with the spy action and zaniness.
All of the original roles that gave the character dynamics structure (boss, secretary, accountant, hr) have been abandoned in favor of shallow personality quirks.
Everything after Season 2 was much worse than 1 or two.
I guess Pirate Island was the killing blow.

Definitely the latter.
A major factor is actually the thing that gave it, and FD, a nice charm, the repeated jokes and catch phrases.
They slowly suffocated the show, along with the characters becoming gratingly caricaturized.
I also hate all of the serious moments; they make me cringe.
When Archers shitty sperm donor baby was born.
Make it grow up or kill her already.
It started declining around the middle of season 3 and started relying on self-referential humor/callbacks way too much.
Vice was just awful. I haven't bothered with anything past that.
>>80632120
Vice is my favourite season tho

Vice had one great episode, and surprisingly enough, it was the only one that didn't heavily involve Pam or Cheryl or some guest star.
It was the one where Archer, Ray, and Cyril explained to Malory what happened to the coke.
just before vice
though there seems to be an arc let on by last season's end

I just want a flash-forward scene depicting her and the Wee Baby Seamus as adult superspies, either working together or feuding as rivals.
>>80632378
I really liked the one where Archer and his new Stepdad bond.
Is the one you're talking about the one where Archer pretends to be Rando? Because that one is also fucking hilarious
>>80633692
Yes, I think so.
Basically, if it doesn't involve Pam or Cheryl, it was okay. Those two were way too toned up in Vice, and it didn't help that both of them were given obnoxious new personality quirks.
Cocaine Pam was easily the worst, most grating thing in the entirety of the series

oh my fucking god, i need this in my life
i need it even more than a flashforward luanne's baby and GH as adorably stupid toddlers

This.
When the writers began shipping ArcherxLana completely seriously. So around Season 4.
When we never got to see Killface's home planet. Or why he was naked.
The most recent season was actually great.
