Return of Bionic Barry!!

It is Furahi-Day everyone, and for the fellow TV enthusiasts out there who watch their shows online like myself , it is an important day! Unfortunately, some excellent took a hiatus this week including Big Bang theory and Person of interest; therefore my options for Friday morning television were quite limited.




From the shows I did watch; Parks and Recreation and 30 Rock were only just okay- as usual they had some humorous dialogue here and there- but definitely not one of their strongest episodes. This usually tends to happen around this time when a lot of shows are generally just having filler episodes- saving their best material for the final weeks of the show before the long break so as to ensure their viewers are eagerly waiting for the next season to come!


That said, ARCHER this week was hilarious! Be warned however, that the remaining part of the blog may contain some SPOILERS, though I will try to keep them to a minimum!!




First and foremost, For many of the Archer fans- you will of course welcome the return of Barry Dylan.. or should I say Bionic Barry following from the season 2 finale. He is a constant source of amusement, and always seems to bring out the best in the show- especially the dialogue around and with him. It appears that the writers do not want to get rid of this character, and what a smart move on their part, as his scope has now increased and is likely to ensure him more screen time as a recurring guest star. .."Nice one other Barry"!




Secondly, This episode focuses more on Archer's sex life- which hasn't been much of a story-line since the season 2 finale and the bulk of season 1. I must say it took a very interesting twist. It is not unfathomable that Archer would have ended up in the situation he did at the start of the episode, but by the end of the episode, all you can say is that Archer is truly an enigma.


I want to add more- but it is better if you just watch it for yourself! I would give it a 9.5/10. 


I am really hoping in the future episodes they give Cheryl/Carol more of a prominent role and that she goes back to her season 1 ways. We saw glimpses of that in this episode, but her role was quite limited. I always thought we saw the best of her in season 1.
