Archer Season 6 Release Date And Episode One Spoilers Adam Reed, John Benjamin, And Aisha Tyler Talk New Season At Comic Con [PHOTO]

"Archer" season 6 is coming, the briliant animated comedy has been renewed for two more seasons, 13 episodes each. 

Recently Showrunner Adam Reed and voice actors gave quite a bit of new information for fans to chew on at San Diego Comic Con. 

Creator Adam Reed, was asked about returning to old-school spy routine after the Archer Vice season.

"We sort of treated it from the start as a vacation and all vacations come to an end. So while it was fun, for me I was excited to get back to what we normally do after a long summer of cocaine," he said.

They even screened the first episode, according to Spinoff Online, (all quotes from them) who were at the event," The episode opens with Archer, groggy from a night of hardcore drinking, awakened by the ring of a Zach Morris-like brick phone in a seedy tropical motel room with a bottle of cobra whisky on the nightstand and a newly pierced ear. His mother Malory is on the phone with information regarding a CIA freelance mission involving the retrieval of an American spy plane from the jungles of Borneo.

Archer gets dumped into the jungle, where he encounters a Japanese soldier from WWII, as the rest of the staff tours their new offices. As it happens, the $10 million ISIS headquarters renovation coordinated by Cheryl and Cyrus results in exactly the same office they had prior to Season 5′s explosion. Exactly.

Despite his best attempts, Archer completes his mission and returns to the newly refurbished headquarters only to be harassed by both Malory and Lana. And in another reveal from the premiere, Krieger got himself a secret hot tub."

After the screening, all of the key Archer contributors assembled for the panel: actors H. Jon Benjamin (Archer), Aisha Tyler (Lana), Chris Parnell (Cyril), Judy Greer (Cheryl), Amber Nash (Pam) and Lucky Yates (Krieger); creator Adam Reed and co-executive producer Casey Willis.

Asked what year the show take place in, Yates responded, "All of the cool ones."

When asked what their favorite aspect of the 'Archer Vice' season was, each of the panelists shared a different answer:

Yates said "Building a submarine in an indoor pool, somehow. Krieger is so fucking resourceful." Nash saud, "Mine was the tit bondage. Titty twister? What was it called?" Greer said "Well, obviously the country music sensation. There's nothing better than that. Parnell said "Being a dictator?" When prodded to explain what exactly he liked about it, he joked, "I guess I've personally always wanted to do that kind of thing. I did a lot of research and took a lot of time to get into that part. I went to a neighborhood in Los Angeles and sort of took over. I was a pretty benevolent dictator. Tyler said "Having a baby without an epidural in a filthy, Third World airport that had been abandoned recently and was being shot at by drug dealers and dictator's minions. I also liked when I was breastfeeding Abijean and she held up her finger at me. I was like 'Aw. I just made a tiny, little bitch baby!'" Benjamin said, "Didn't watch it. No fucking interest. Willis said,  "I think my favorite was the cool guest stars we had like Gary Cole, Fred Armisen and Christian Slater.

Reed said, "I really liked the episode where they were on the raft in Columbia and then set the raft on fire through sheer idiocy. And I always love exploring Archer's neurotic fear of reptiles." Asked if he could do that regularly, Reed responded, "We could give him a job at a reptile farm."

Yates said, "I think you just wrote an Archer episode," adding that the credit would read, "'Story by man in the Batman shirt.' You win. You just won Comic-Con!"

"Archer" season 6 will come sometime in January 2015. Check back for more information as we get closer to the release date.
