“Archer” Panel Announced For NYCC2017

We may not even have to bother with the Javits Center this year, the whole party is happening at Hammerstein.

FXX’s Emmy® Award-winning animated series is returning to the Big Apple for New York Comic-Con on Saturday, October 7, 2017, with a screening/panel/Q&A at the Hammerstein Ballroom from 5:00p-6:00p.

The producers of Archer dropped a bomb at San Diego Comic Con to announce the show’s ninth season that will be known as Archer: Danger Island. 

Fresh off an Emmy-nominated Archer: Dreamland that constitutes the eighth season of the FX Networks’ long running series, the producers, cast, and even Sterling Archer himself were on hand to announce the setting of the show’s ninth season, Archer: Danger Island. 

This season is set in a setting during the early stages of World War II. It’s 1939, and Sterling is a sea pilot that maroons on a volcanic Polynesian island that will feature familiar voices playing unfamiliar roles. Malory returns as a bar owner and Sterling’s mother, Cheryl is now Charlotte, a newlywed left stranded by her husband after she has a tryst with Archer, Figgis is some sort of undercover German agent, Pam is Sterling’s co-pilot, Lana as a princess, and Krieger as a talking parrot.

Producer Matt Thompson promises some crazy shit that will include smart monkeys, quicksand, cannibals, and the fact that the setting is a fucking VOLCANO.

The ninth season of Archer is expected next year on FXX.
