Dreamland was garbage. I was thoroughly disappointed. I too think this show has run its course. Time to wrap it up.


I didn't think it was as bad as everyone else. I mean compared to other seasons, I get it.

I thought it was pretty clever, given the premise tho. I mean a crass-humor stuck in the 40's. It was an ambitious idea that admittedly fell a little flat, but I still found it to be funny.

The issue with Dreamland is that they changed the characters too much to fit the 1940s crime novel theme. Sterling, Malorie and Lana, in particular, were barely recognizable.

I'm just not crazy about this whole "new theme every season" thing anyway, though it seemed to work all right until last season.

I find it hard to believe they needed to go away from the spy agency premise after three seasons or so. There are like a million things to do with it.

Dreamland was pretty bad considering how great the show has been since the pilot, but if it were a stand alone season and I had never watched Archer before Dreamland, I would have thought it was pretty good.

For me, had it been a stand alone season, I probably would have stopped watching after a couple episodes.

I would just like to know what type of drugs the producers of this show have gotten on in recent years.

Dream worlds and Treasure Islands.

What's next? Archer: Mars Adventure?

They just need to get back to the show's James Bond parody roots in the worst way. They left so much potential material behind there.

I agree. The show was one of the best cartoons ever when it was a James Bond parody. I still watch the theme seasons, but I'd love it if they went back to their roots.

I agree with @ill . It's time to start rapping this up. The show is still alright, but its past its peak and would be better off giving it a proper ending rather than doing theme after theme

I read somewhere that they have an end date in mind. I just don't remember what season it is. I seem to remember reading it around the time a bunch of new episodes were ordered by FX.

I am not a fan of the last two seasons. I finally got around to watching Dreamland a few weeks ago. It definitely feels like this show needs to wrap up. Hopefully they end on a high note.

I think things got all fucked up when they had to get away from the ISIS name on the company.

I could see them doing a Mars adventure. The under the sea episodes were pretty fun.

I’m on the fence this season though I’ve only watched one episode.

So they have abandoned any semblance of the spy agency and their”real” selves at this point, right? At least last season, it was a coma-dream. This season looks to be just fantasy.

could still be a dream, right? At the end of Dreamland Archer was facedown in a pool, right? So there is a chance this is the afterlife or something?

It seems like they've double-down on Dreamland type content. Many of the characters are just flat-out annoying this season.

There have been a handful of good jokes and I like them not actually romanticizing the setting but this is very....mediocre.
