Archer Plunges Back Into the Danger Zone for Season 13

We already knew that Archer can be premiering its fortunate thirteenth season later this month, because of a tweet from the FXX series itself earlier this summer time. We realized a bit extra about what to anticipate at San Diego Comic-Con 2022, and now we’ve a trailer that exhibits us much more. Johnny Utahhhhh!

As you would possibly anticipate, season 13 might be bringing some new challenges for our hapless, regularly drunk, but in addition sometimes badass and deadly characters. The official description: “In season 13 of FX‘s comedy Archer, the Agency has been acquired by the spy conglomerate known as IIA (International Intelligence Agency). As Archer and the gang struggle to find their identity performing odd missions for Fabian, one question arises: will they be able to maintain independence, or will they succumb to their corporate overlords?” TV Line has reported that this season’s visitor stars will embody Saturday Night Live’s Kenan Thompson, Star Trek: Picard’s Alison Pill, What We Do within the Shadows’ Kayvan Novak, and Groundhog Day’s Stephen Tobolowsky—in addition to frequent Archer visitor star Christian Slater.

Over the years, Archer has managed to strike a stability between altering up its characters’ circumstances (lest we neglect these extremely uneven “coma seasons,” or the rather more fondly remembered Archer Vice) and its random humorousness—sprinkled with in-jokes for legions of followers who now shout “Phrasing!” when the second strikes in actual life—totally intact. The undeniable fact that the characters are so well-established of their quirks goes a great distance, although season 13 might be a poignant one for the collection: it’ll be the primary with out the irreplaceable Jessica Walter, who performed Malory Archer, the hilariously snobbish mom of Sterling Archer (H. Jon Benjamin); her loss was an enormous focus of the present’s SDCC panel, and you may learn extra about that right here. The remainder of the forged consists of Aisha Tyler, Judy Greer, Chris Parnell, Amber Nash, Adam Reed, and Lucky Yates.

Archer season 13 premieres August 24 on FXX, with new episodes streaming the following day on Hulu.
