The team from Archer have traveled around quite a bit over their nine seasons and counting. For seven of those seasons, the agents of the International Secret Intelligence Service--an acronym that was eventually pulled for obvious reasons--went about their business as world-traveling super-spies and the members of their support team. In Season 8, Archer changed tack by embracing the 1940s noir setting of "Dreamland", a story arc taking place in the mind of an unconscious Sterling. Now, as the first official Season 9 trailer reveals, the gang will once again tackle a new genre by heading to "Danger Island" for this eight-episode run.

Sterling Archer (H. Jon Benjamin) is joined by Malory Archer (Jessica Walter), Lana Kane a.k.a. Princess Lanaluakalani (Aisha Tyler), Cheryl Tunt a.k.a. Charlotte Vandertunt (Judy Greer), Pam Poovey (Amber Nash), Cyril Figgis a.k.a. Siegbert Fuchs (Chris Parnell), Reynaud (creator Adam Reed) and the scarlet macaw Crackers (Lucky Yates). Archer heads to Danger Island on FXX starting Wednesday, April 25th.

FXX’s Archer is an original animated, half-hour comedy that, in its ninth season, centers on the semi-functioning alcoholic seaplane pilot, Sterling Archer, a lush on the lush South Pacific island of Mitimotu in 1939. While the rest of the world is concerned about the impending Second World War, Archer is only concerned with who’s buying his next drink. Along with his trusty co-pilot Pam, Sterling must navigate quicksand, cannibals, super-intelligent monkeys, poison darts, pirates, and did we mention quicksand? Welcome to the mysterious and deadly world of Archer: Danger Island.

 

The series features the voices of H. Jon Benjamin as the hard-drinking pilot, “Sterling Archer;” Jessica Walter as Archer’s acid-tongued mother and hotel owner, “Malory Archer;” Aisha Tyler as island royalty and local revolutionary, “Princess Lanaluakalani;” Judy Greer as the abandoned heiress, “Charlotte Vandertunt;” Chris Parnell as the obvious German spy posing as a businessman, “Siegbert Fuchs;” Amber Nash as Archer’s co-pilot and loyal sidekick, “Pam Poovey;” Adam Reed as impeccably uniformed French Capitaine, “Reynaud;” and Lucky Yates as the audacious scarlet macaw, “Crackers.”
