Heh, happened to have captioning on, during a repeat, and noticed that it still says Cheryl/Carol every time she talks.

What I want to see the most is Bionic Barry flying towards earth without a space ship or suit.

The episode was slower than the previous edition, but it was still a great capper for this season.

Who wouldn't want to have babies with Cheryl?

The three-fifths line was line of the episode for me.

These two parts were kind of perfect. The Star Wars references were amazingly subversive while still being clear. Tons of great callbacks. The anti-climax was spectacular. I'm betting Ray's fixed for next year.

The best, though, was the Animal Farm conversation. Fuck. I think it's the best joke I've seen, read, or heard so far in 2012.

Barry flying to back to earth with an 80s montage music playing. Or he crashes the space station back to earth.

I still think The Limited is the best episode this season. Other than that, the season was still great, but season 2 is still better.

The Placebo Effect and El Secuestro are episodes you can't top for me.

I thought that the spaceship was going to crash and become the annihilatrix's building block what with the using it to push them to mars angle that was taken. It could still happen but I'm starting to doubt it now.

EDIT: totally needs a spacebot battle in S4

Great season finale! Not really sure if this was better then s2, both seasons had ups, downs and real gems. Placebo Effect from the last season is still my favorite episode but this two parter came pretty close to it.

My guess a episode or two after the start of sunny again because the league doesn't start till October because they need some of the NFL season to be done. Then it will come back for winter again.

- Onion A|V Club: Adam Reed walks us through Archer’s third season (Part 1 of 3)
In its third season, FX’s animated comedy Archer hit new heights of lunacy and climbed in the ratings. The season began with a three-part episode—which aired in the fall after episodes of It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia—then played out the rest of its season in the winter. Throughout the season, the show dug even deeper into its characters, offered up a number of great spy missions (including one in space), and forced lead character Sterling Archer into increasingly depraved situations, not that he seemed to mind much. Along the way, Cyril Figgis became a field agent, Archer hooked up with Pam, and Archer’s mother Malory murdered the prime minister of Italy. Series creator Adam Reed—who’s had at least partial script credit on every episode of the show—recently talked with The A.V. Club about the process of working on all season-three episodes.

This is far and away the best animated show to have come on in many years. American Dad is my next runner up, Family Guy has been shit for a few seasons and South Park is hit and miss but Archer is consistently brilliant.

Wanna see Lana and Archer hook up again.

Just wanted to highly recommend that anyone who enjoys the show give these interviews a quick read. It's an insightful, funny luck at how they put together S3. Lots of hilarious anecdotes and a few tidbits on what's to come in S4.

I don't see Venture Bros on that list...

But yeah, I got into Archer recently, watched the first two seasons on Netflix and loved it. The writers and the voice actor for Archer just are excellent at pulling off "hilarious clueless asshole"
One of my favorite moments is in the blimp episode where Lana is ignoring him and so he's like a six year old kid going "Lana....Lana....Lana....LANAAAA!"

It's fun to go back and watch the first season and see how much the animation has improved. Not that it was ever bad, but it's much more fluid than it used to be.

There should be some info about S4 coming from there.

In the meantime, here's an early spoiler from TV Guide.

I'm worried more and more about this show. Reed and Thompson have a history of their shows turning to garbage after 3-4 seasons. Frisky Dingo was great, and I don't know if it counts, but Xtacles was fucking garbage. Sealab was great and season 4 was fucking garbage. When does it hit for Archer? I don't want it to, but it's got to eventually
