Exclusive: We talk to Jon Benjamin about Archer Season 5
Recently, we hopped on a conference call with Jon Benjamin the voice of Sterling Archer to talk about the new season of Archer premiering on FX this Monday Night @ 10 pm EST. Some of it we are going to tell you guys about now, some of it you have to read in the upcoming issue of Bubbleblabber the Magazine #1. That said, we still had some good notes from the convo:
On the future of Archer Live shows:
They do them very like sporadically. There’s one coming up in Austin, Texas I believe this weekend. I think so. And then, I think it depends onthe availability of the cast. I know Aisha works during the week everyday. So, it’s hard to schedule a tour, but we’ve been doing them kind of as one-offs. So, I assume they’ll do more. It’s just that they’re sporadic.
On whether or not he actually wants to know who Archer’s father is:
I prefer the mystery I think. I think it fuels his anger. It’s both what makes him good at what he does and bad as a human being, which is fun to watch. So, yes, I mean maybe it will get resolved, but I’m not sure “Malory” knows.

"There are also other characters that come and go (also owned by the Warner Bros. Discovery conglomerate media company)."
Huh. Is that just referring to other characters from the show itself, or is this implying that the new season is going to have cameos from other WBD IPs
