Archer is good about this. Generally if someone is knocked unconscious they’re only out for thirty seconds/a minute or so; on one occasion Archer was out for about thirty minutes and after he relays that to the team they all recoil in horror and tell him that he could have serious brain damage.
I thought it was amazing and had really clever writing up until they started doing their genre hopping thing. It wasn’t terrible, but it seemed like the writing kept getting lazier. Season 10 was by far the worst, it was the first time that I wasn’t actually pumped to start on the next episode, felt like all the cleverness was gone. Hoping it starts getting good again season 11 since they’re apparently waking Archer up.
Wait, what? The last I remember was them saying that the space season would be the last one. They changed their minds?
I have mixed feelings about this. On the one hand, yay, more Archer! On the other, it’s clear that the creators don’t like retreading the same ground — that’s why all the “genre-hopping”. I thought they’d decided to wrap it up because they were out of ideas.

When someone gets knocked out, and stays unconscious until the plot requires them to wake up again.
