RePhrasing: An Archer ReWatch Podcast

Episode notes

Amber Nash (Pam Poovey) is joined by former Archer animation director Mack Williams to revisit Dial M for Mother — Season 1, Episode 10 — and explore how Archer’s animation evolved across the first season. Mack shares stories about being a mover and shaker in Atlanta’s art scene, how he got into the business with Matt and Adam, and the massive amount of work that went into leveling up the show from its early episodes.

They also talk burning the midnight oil, the reality of making something great on tight timelines, the stamina of your twenties, learning to delegate, and the artistry behind water animation. Plus: Black Jack Archer, the dad from Webster, our new segment “Ask Adam,” Trinette’s creative nicknames, clothing button directions, and tie bars.

📺 FX’s Archer is now streaming on Hulu.
