Show Notes
Episode 2: Aisha Tyler Breaks Down Skorpio (S1E6) Aisha Tyler (Lana Kane) joins Amber Nash (Pam Poovey) to break down Skorpio — Season 1, Episode 6 of Archer. The two longtime pals swap stories about how the cast got to know each other (mostly through booze and cursing), and reminisce about the unhinged magic of the Archer Live tour. Aisha shares how Archer’s razor-sharp writing — with punchlines packed into every page — helped make it one of TV’s smartest comedies. We also get into the truth behind Lana’s iconic silhouette (spoiler: it’s contrapposto) and how a little Bond and a dash of smilthy helped shape the show’s early tone.
