Archer Nods to Jessica Walter's Arrested Development Role

Mallory's magazine cover tells the story of fake cancer drugs; this is a main plot point when Sterling realizes he is taking Zima.

I found a neat Arrested Development Easter egg in 'Nellis' [the stair car].

Viewers learn about Cheryl's huge wealth and her link to the dead railroad tycoon, Cornelius Tunt, across the series. Watch closely; often, a train car appears, showing the Tunt name, like this red box car above.

I remain amazed by the detail: the comparison of the gun inAliensThe guns in "Space Race" show include them.

InArcherIn Archer S7 E8, Cyril uses a search engine called 10^100, a googol (Google).

Rewatching S5 E7 Smugglers' Blues, I saw a guy sleeping outside Cheryl's mansion. He is one of the ISIS control room workers. This shows good attention to detail since all staff were fired because ISIS closed.

Her Japanese street racing name appears in the reflection on the screen when it scans her iris. This recalls Season 3 when Archer got the car for his birthday.

Ray's guns bear names of Broadway stars Barbra Streisand and Liza Minnelli.
