Archer

Season 1

10 episodes 15 seasons

Suave secret agent Sterling Archer is the world's most dangerous spy, but political intrigue and global crises are nothing compared to the sexual tension and human resources crises at the intelligence agency where he works. Archer must deal with his overbearing, oversexed mother—who is also his boss—and his femme fatale ex-girlfriend who seems to be sleeping with everyone except him.
