Sterling Archer is a self-absorbed spy at an intelligence agency run by his mother, Malory, where he invents a mole to hide his inflated expense claims and trades insults with his coworkers.
Caustic, quotable comedy for people who like their insults fast and their jokes packed with references. Someone shouts "phrasing" whenever a line turns dirty. H. Jon Benjamin's stop-and-start deadpan keeps a vain, selfish agent funny instead of hateful. Archer is put in charge of training the mild accountant Cyril, voiced by Chris Parnell, and secretly sabotages him.
Later seasons change setting and format, and seasons 8 to 10 are three separate self-contained worlds.
