Summary

Archer and his former best friend are holed up in the Vermont wilderness, fighting hard to come out on top.

Our Take

Timothy Olyphant makes a fun guest turn as Archer’s old pal, and the two have genuine chemistry that sells the whole odd-couple-in-the-woods setup. The jokes about their weirdly intense friendship land more often than they miss, though the back half leans hard on one running gag until it wears thin. A solid, funny hour, just not a standout in this season.
