      Archer has a weird level of detail for such a “dumb” show. In one episode Lana shoots him in the foot, a few episodes later he has a scar on that foot. It could totally have been dismissed, but they immortalized it. So everything in that show has the ability to become a running gag.

    I got into psych (TV show) because of an ex and eventually I convinced my father to watch it. Well now he quotes it all the time. The one that comes up almost daily is “I’ve heard it both ways” after one of us pronounces something wrong or someone else pronounces something wrong.

    Goofy fun show. You gotta just enjoy the goofiness and not think too much. Luckily it has tons of themed episodes and endless references to other Pop culture moments. The writing is snappy and honestly you miss a lot of jokes the first time around because half of them are said under someone’s breath or by someone slightly off screen and outta focus.

        I have used that line to start a conversation with an untold number of women lol.

        Most of them just think it’s funny. Sometimes they get the reference. One woman was legitimately mad at me for having used a line from a TV show lol. It’s just a good line.

      First that comes to mind is non of the Blueths know how to mock someone for being a chicken.

      Next is the ‘should have left a note.’

    In the movie The Cheap Detective, Peter Falks character is seen repeatedly pulling random fully bartended and prepared drinks from his drawers.

    At one point he is offering it to someone else and even asks them if they prefer shaker or stirred and then magically pulls out exactly what they ordered from his drawer.

    Idk why but that shit made me laugh every time

        Thank you for saying that. I read it as underwear the first time and thought, “That’s pretty low humor for Peter Falk.”

    My mind goes to the literal running gag in the ancient webcomic 1/0. It was the word GAG given arms and legs and it would run around out of sight and turn up quite literally when the strip needed a punchline, or at least I think that was the idea.

    That we all just…agree to this crazy idea called “money.” And that we justify it to ourselves using wild ideas and myths we tell ourselves, like the alternative to money is using barter for everything.
