== ''The Walking Den'' == | |||
''The Walking Den'' (a play-on-words referencing the post-apocalyptic television series [[wikipedia:The Walking Dead (TV series)|The Walking Dead]]) was a series of parody videos directed, edited, and produced by Archer. They featured the profile avatars of members from Disaster Den overlayed onto the faces of characters from various fictional series. Examples include the anime television series [[wikipedia:Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works (TV series)|Fate/stay night]] and [[wikipedia:Attack on Titan (TV series)|Attack on Titan]], alongside the [[wikipedia:Harry Potter (film series)|Harry Potter]] series of films. Some episodes were tied together with dialogue and plot, while others focused on the comedy of certain members being personified by characters and their situations. | |||
