Episode notes
Amber, Christian, and Casey are joined by Neal Holman to revisit El Secuestro — Season 2, Episode 10 of Archer.
They dive into one of the most beloved episodes of the series—and a favorite of Judy Greer’s—exploring the evolving relationship between Pam and Cheryl, Amber finally feeling completely at home as Pam, and how Neal balanced wearing multiple hats while helping shape Archer. They also discuss Brett’s seemingly endless supply of blood, that Pam is a moped, the show’s graphic ads, and Neal’s signature mirror shots.
Also in this episode: kidnapping, painterly backgrounds, ocelot love, Archer’s soft spot for animals, 2 Truths and a Line, dry cleaner relationships, naked audio, the price of Pam, eyelines in animation, and the difference between rigged and fully drawn animation.
📺 FX’s Archer is now streaming on Hulu.
