What happened to this show? Ani was right about the change of setting being its death.

Well they went back to espionage but it's still not working. I think the writers/creators are bored or out of material, since they seem to be rehashing old tropes and lines and reusing characters and situations from earlier seasons (Conway, ruggedly handsome guy, and Barry returns next episode). The first couple of episodes this season were ok/good but the last 2 were pretty bad. The quick wit and clever banter are replaced with everyone complaining and Archer drinking alcohol and being a jerk.
And what happened to Lana? Is her only purpose on the show now to be a nagging old hen for Archer to be a dick to? Phrasing...
“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”
And now they're private investigators.
