I'm not saying that the change was good or bad either way

But the characters on Archer, Pam included, have always been kind of terrible, ridiculous, insane people who frequently take part in addictive behaviors, so turning her into a cocaine addict is hardly out of character for the show or out of left field. I don't think looking to Archer for respectable role models would ever be a good idea under any circumstances whatsoever. and i'm not sure how valid "She used to be a strong, awesome, take-charge female character is, and now she's skinny" is as a complaint. At the very least, it's unfortunately worded.

She said she only does cocaine to be skinny, because everyone would like her if she's 'hot', though.

(not op) I think the point is more "now she's a skinny COKE ADDICT" than just that she's skinny now. They have reduced what was a full, funny, and occasionally awful character into everything just revolving around getting cocaine and her loooving being traditionally skinny and hot. When there had been no indication before this season that Pam disliked her body; indeed, she seemed very positive about it and that's really refreshing on US TV.

I don't think it's out of character or out of left field, but it's... kinda boring. Pam (and all the characters, really) have always been crazy and complex, but this series has been a lot more flat. Pam's no longer this chick who loves food/sex and doesn't care who knows it, is an awesome fighter, rocks her extra pounds with no fucks given and a lot of other things.

Now she's a skinny chick with huge tits who loves cocaine. You see how that's narrowed a lot?

She's still all those things. She's just skinny. Besides, it fits in with the character.

Also, you seem to be forgetting that this is a satirical animated comedy. At some point she's probably going to show up fat again and the entire explanation will be "Oh, so you're fat again?" "Yeeeeeepp" *roll credits*

People actually getting upset over this are ridiculous.

But what has she gotten to do this season that wasn't related to cocaine?
