Reddit AMA Recap: Aisha Tyler talks “Archer”

Aisha kicks off a slew of Archer stars that will be doing Reddit AMA’s over the next month (including another stop from Aisha happening sometime in May) and we grabbed up the highlights. Here’s what she said about her time working on Archer, what she hopes to see, and a bunch more.

Dream Guest Stars

We probably already had our dream guest star, who was Jon Hamm. I would also like Jason Bateman and Ryan Reynolds. And Ryan Gosling and Joe Manganiello. I realize now that this is just a list of guys I would like to see naked.

On what happens after the Archer Live shows

Well, we are already pretty blerzy when we walk off stage, if you can’t tell. We don’t see each other very much because we all record the show separately, so when we get together we kind of revert into our characters from the show. So, yes. We go off and get good and drunk, and then Jon attacks a group of college kids and gets a black eye, Pam steals a cop car, Chris Parnell re-enacts all of Big Dig Richie’s scenes from Magic Mike, and then we all have a good laugh and go eat pancakes.

On potentially joining other animated shows like Archer

I dunno. I’ve been offered other stuff but I don’t want to cheat on Archer. I love it so much. Video games are different. I’d love to play a major character in a game. But in other formats, I don’t want to do anything unless it is as good as Archer.

Which is nothing in the world.

Favorite scene in Archer

When we did the pilot I loved the scene where I told Cyrill to go down to the corner store to get the barebackinest ballslappiest harddickinest interracial porn in there from the nice korean lady. That was fun.

Favorite episode and will Lana find true love?

I wrote about my fave episodes above, but I really did love Terms of Enrampagement. That was an hilarious ep and also a good bonding time for Lana and Sterling. Lana will never find true love. She will also bring up her progeny to be dead-eyed loveless assassins. This is her destiny.
