This is the animated adult TV series about a man-child
super spy Sterling Archer who works for his mother at the ISIS (International
Secret Intelligence Service). Somewhere between James Bond, and Maxwell Smart
(Get Smart for you youngsters out there), Sterling Archer is a complex man with
serious issues who likes to self medicate on whiskey and resolve his problems
at the point of a gun or in the bedroom. He is a self centred and emotionally immature
yet highly skilled and feared secret agent. Set deliberately ambiguously in a
timeline that mixes 1960’s, 70’s and 80’s visual references it harks back to a
period where the spy genre was most popular while ensuring that there are
enough contemporary tweaks and sensibilities to add to the unique feel of the
show.
