Episode 4: Chris Parnell on El Contador (S3E5)
Chris Parnell (Cyril Figgis) joins Amber Nash (Pam) to dig into El Contador — Season 3, Episode 5 of Archer — aka the moment Cyril finally gets in the field… and kinda crushes it.
Chris shares what it was like voicing Cyril’s Spanish in this episode (and German in others), how “suppressing fire!” became a full-body catchphrase, and what it’s like being one of the most physical voice actors in the booth.
Also covered: sharing soup, zoom therapy, Predator, and what to do if you find yourself face-to-face with a bask of crocodiles.
FX’s Archer is now streaming on Hulu.
