Archer renewed for seasons 6-7 by FX

It appears that viewers are enjoying the fifth season of Archer (aka, Archer Vice) as FX announced they renewed the show for two more seasons. This leaves Archer guaranteed for cable and broadcast syndication and also gives it a possibility for an eighth season or beyond. Each season will be at least 13-episodes and pushed forward the show dominating the 18-49 demographic.

Archer premiered back in 2010 on FX and has had a steady fanbase for the animated spy comedy ever since. Created by Adam Reed and Matt Thompson, the show is currently undergoing an overhaul with "Archer Vice" which took it away from the entire premise of spies and the lackluster spy agency, ISIS. Season five will wrap up at the end of this month on the 24th and it is assumed that season six will premiere in January 2015 with season seven sometime in 2016.
This is an interesting move, but there is no real way to tell where the character development is going to go until this season is over. With Cheryl becoming a country star, Pam being a drug addict, Ray walking once again, and Lana still pregnant there are tons of directions the next two seasons could go.

Archer renewed for a 5th season!

FX has renewed the animated comedy Archer for a 5th season which will contain 13 episodes. We are currently in the middle of Season 4 which is set to end in mid-April with a 2-part season finale.
Archer has dominated the time slot it has on FX drawing in 44% more viewers in the 18-34 age bracket than it did for Season 2 and 36% more viewers than Season 3. It also is the #2 top watched cable show for the 18-34 age demographic right behind The Walking Dead.
Nick Grad, the president of FX original programming and development, called Archer "one of the very best comedy series on television." He later added that the quality of the show is "undeniable."


This is great news.

Archer to return in January for Season 4
