Sterling Archer

Archer is an American adult animated sitcom created by Adam Reed for FX that premiered on September 17, 2009. The series follows the exploits of a dysfunctional intelligence agency, led by Sterling Archer (voiced by H. Jon Benjamin) and seven of his colleagues—his mother Malory Archer (Jessica Walter), Lana Kane (Aisha Tyler), Cyril Figgis (Chris Parnell), Cheryl Tunt (Judy Greer), Pam Poovey (Amber Nash), Ray Gillette (Adam Reed) and Dr. Algernop Krieger (Lucky Yates). Archer's premise evolves as the comedy assumes the standard setup of an anthology from seasons 8-10, each with self-contained arcs, new settings, a disparate set of personae for each character, even distinct humor.

The series was conceived by Reed shortly after the cancellation of his previous show, Frisky Dingo, for Adult Swim. It draws inspiration from a variety of sources, including the James Bond franchise. The show's hallmarks include reference-heavy humor, rapid-fire dialogue, and meta-comedy. Archer is produced using limited animation and takes its visual style from mid-century comic art. The cast members record their lines individually, and the show regularly employs guest actors and actresses for supporting characters.
