Archer Season 11 Preview
Archer is an animated, half-hour comedy that follows Sterling Archer (H. Jon Benjamin) and his return to the spy world after a three-year coma. While many things changed during his absence, Archer is confident it will take just a little time for him to reset things back to the old ways. The problem: does the rest of the team want that? Everyone else has been doing pretty well and may not be ready for his return to throw a wrench in their well-oiled machine.
According to the FXX media kit, here is where each character is when the show returns.
As Sterling faces a world that has moved on without him, he is finding it difficult to adjust. His friends and co-workers are back to working in a quasi-independent spy agency and are functioning well. Meanwhile, Archer’s walking with a cane and sometimes unsure if he’s still in a coma or not. What the hell is going on?
Living her best life, Lana Kane’s (Aisha Tyler) career is going smoothly, her daughter is getting the best education in the world, and she’s happier than she’s ever been. So why is Lana worried about Archer’s return? Whatever the reason, her therapist is sure to hear a lot about it.
As Sterling’s mother, Malory Archer (Jessica Walter) only wants what’s best for her son. She spent the past three years at the side of his coma bed, but that didn’t stop her from rebuilding her spy agency. The Agency is now profitable and well-respected, and Malory is eager for Sterling to get back to work. In addition to being a nice boost to his self-esteem, working will get him out of the pigsty he calls an apartment.
Cyril Figgis (Chris Parnell) has become the Agency’s top agent in Archer’s absence. He’s centered, confident, and most important, RIPPED. He’s ready to help Archer get reacquainted with the spy world and maybe show off his impressive abs if the chance should arise.
Cheryl and/or Carol Tunt (Judy Greer) is Malory’s assistant and has helped keep the Agency running smoothly and efficiently. She refers to herself as ‘New Better Cheryl,’ but under her professional exterior still smolders an arson-loving sociopath. Will Archer’s return be the spark to usher in the return of old, bug nuts crazy Cheryl? Yeah, probably.
Pam Poovey (Amber Nash) has been a successful spy and the muscle for Malory’s newly found Agency. In her heart, she yearns for the old days when she didn’t have to worry about preventing coups in foreign lands and could worry about the important stuff like day drinking and seeing how many pool balls she can stuff in her mouth.
Algernop Krieger (Lucky Yates) is the Agency’s technical wizard. He’s always providing field agents with tech and gadgets to help them with their missions and he finds it BORING! He’s so excited that Archer is back and can’t wait to delve into the mind of a man who has crossed the thin veil separating the living and the dead. Also, he totally loves heavy metal.
Ray Gillette (Adam Reed) is the same professional spy he’s always been. He’s suave, stealthy, and willing to take a three-week mission to Bora Bora because that’s where the intelligence led him. Does no one remember why they became spies in the first place? It’s the perks, baby!
Archer season 11 premieres Wednesday, September 16 at 10 p.m. ET/PT on FXX.
