Lana. Lana! Laaaaana! WHAT? Buy My Shirt.

I am a huge fan of the animated show Archer. I am so incredibly bitter that the fourth season is not on Netflix yet. I started my Archer experience late and blew through the first three seasons in a caffeine-induced binge weekend. I am recording the fifth season, but I refuse to watch until I can see the fourth. I know I could buy digital downloads or Blu-ray, but I am cheap.

ThinkGeek has a new shirt that is perfect for Archer fans. It has a picture of Sterling Archer on the front screaming “LAAAAAAAANA!”

If you have watched the show, you know how this works, “Lana. LANA! LAAAAAAAANA!”, then she replies, ” WHAT?!” to which Archer often simply says “Danger Zone.”  You can pick one up for $19.99 at ThinkGeek.

I always thought it was “LANAAAAAAAAA!”

Amazon Prime Instant Video Lands FX Shows The Americans, Archer, and More

Amazon has announced that it has signed a new deal with Twentieth Century Fox Television Distribution that will see new shows coming to the Amazon Prime Instant video service, primarily from the FX and FXX networks.

The deal includes some programs that are already available on Netflix and elsewhere, as well as an exclusive on one FX show called The Americans. That show is pretty cool and focuses on a seemingly normal husband and wife in America, who are actually Russian spies. The show is set during the Cold War.

Along with the exclusive for the first season of The Americans, the deal also comes with a slew of other non-exclusive shows. The most important of those is Archer, for me anyhow. How I Met Your Mother, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, The League, and Louie are the other shows in the deal, and they will arrive this March. The Americans is available now, which gives you a couple of weeks to binge watch season one before the new season starts up on FX on February 26.

From the ISIS Library: How to Archer

I recently started watching the first few seasons of Archer on Netflix. I blame you all for not telling me how awesome the show was before. If you are a big fan of the show, you might wonder how you can be more like the world’s greatest spy, code-name Dutchess.

The How to Archer book promises to teach you everything you need to know to become Sterling Archer. You won’t be the real Archer, because he is himself and then there’s the fact that he is a cartoon. Still, you can be as close to Archer as you can be without actually being him.

The book promises to teach you to lie, because that is like 95% of what spies do. It will also teach you other needed skills like piloting an airboat, how to make drinks, and how to fight among other things. The book is available now for $16.99 (USD), and you can take a peek inside of it here.

Archer Remade The Danger Zone Scene From Top Gun and It’s Perfect

This scene. It doesn’t belong to Tony Scott (RIP) anymore. It is Archer’s through and through. The guys behind the FX show remade the iconic scene shot-for-shot and everything about it is perfect. [Archer]

Must See HDTV (April 8th – 14th)

Tonight the Men’s NCAA basketball tournament comes to an end as Louisville faces Michigan. That’s not the only finale this week, as Being Human, Go On, Legit and others wrap up their seasons. Look below for the highlights this week, followed after the break by our weekly listing of what to look out for in TV, Blu-ray and videogames.

Archer
If you’re somehow not watching this cartoon, you should be. Part two of the season finale airs Thursday night as the ISIS agents find themselves trapped undersea (it’s all Carol’s fault.)

Louis CK: Oh My God
It’s going to be Louis CK, on stage, telling some jokes. Don’t have HBO? the comic will be selling this one on his website as well, although you’ll have to wait until November to get it.
