Sounds close enough to me.
With normal seasons of Archer ending after 8 eps, I was worried "Breaking Fabien" was the end.
First episode was fine. Honestly if I didn't know that they got someone new, I wouldn't have know there was any change at all.
I wonder if they got the memo that all recent successful video game adaptations stay very close to the source material and don't do anything to stray far from it
