The Background:
ARCHER The Complete First Season arrives on DVD from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment on March 2nd, 2011. Fox 8’s original animated half-hour comedy series premiered 14 January, 2010. The show is set at the International Secret Intelligence Service (ISIS), a spy agency where espionage and global crises are merely opportunities for its highly trained employees to confuse, undermine, betray and royally screw each other. TIME Magazine’s James Poniewozik wrote “If you want your action parody and office sitcom all in one, Archer may well be the spy you’ll love.” Of course, he loves mother (aka The Boss) so we’re suspicious of his motives.

• Exclusive DVD extras including un-aired ARCHER pilot, Archersaurus, “Making Of” production shorts, deleted scenes, The Making Of Archer, Art Direction The Making Of Archer, Illustration The Making Of Archer
