Pam smashes the intercom mid-sentence, and mutters "Boring conversation anyway."
Lana: "I find your lack of faith disturbing." Interestingly, she says that line while performing that looks like the Vulcan Neck Pinch.
From "Killing Utne"

Colonel Jakov: "Hello? What is the frequency?"
Archer: "...Kenneth"?

Uta is a German girl with red hair and father issues, like Lola in Run Lola Run. She even has a boyfriend named Manni. Her relationship with a much older assassin is a riff on Léon: The Professional.
Archer's butler is named Woodhouse.
Malory's rivalry with their friend Trudy Beekman is a reference to Lucille's rivalry with her neighbor/friend in Arrested Development. The actress plays both characters. Sterling even says, "Wow, you don't get along with your neighbors anywhere."
Also on the airship:

"Captain Lammers!"
"Nice read, Velma."

From "Dial M for Mother"

(Cyril flashes back to an affair as Lana quizzes him on his past infidelities.
Cyril: Ms. Archer, you're trying to seduce me. ...Aren't you?
(Cut to Cyril in the bathroom with a rifle after Lana dismisses the idea of Cyril snapping over her mass sexual encounter with every male in ISIS.)
Cyril: Seven-six-two millimeter. Full. Metal. Jacke-- someone's in here! .

Sterling's codename, Duchess, is also the Fan Nickname for Captain Archer of Star Trek: Enterprise.
The visual nod to actor David Rees Snell, whenever Archer is shown with a mustache. Not to mention, the fact that Woodhouse's unrequited love was named Reggie, which is a variation of REG (the initials of Snell's character on The Shield).
Archer, Krieger and Cyril subject Trexler to the Ludovico Treatment in "A Going Concern."
Give her the rabbit, Lenny!
A Friends reference: You know what? We're on a break! Oh yeah? FINE BY ME!
Krieger is a boy from Brazil.
"You maniac! You blew her up! Damn you all! Damn you all to hell!"
The racers in the beginning of "Jeu Monegasque" are named Bell, Bivens & Devoe.
Alas, poor Reggie...
Bionic Barry!
Archer's rampage in "Placebo Effect" is, in his own classic style, a (deliberate) Shout-Out to pretty much every Roaring Rampage of Revenge plot in the kind of media Sterling would partake in. For just a few examples, the grenade up the ass is quite similar to scene in Man on Fire, and "Did you see Regis this morning?" is a play on a famous ending from Magnum, P.I..
Cheryl's ocelot is named "Babou."
Cheryl's family, the Tunts, are an expy of the Vanderbilt family, from their railroad fortune down to there being multiple "Corneli-i", to the "Tuntmore" (Biltmore) House and a matriarch who is nostalgic for the days of slavery.
"White Knights" has Archer barefoot for most of the episode. There is a lot of broken glass involved.
"This agency is not your personal bank account for you to jet off to Whore Island!"
The "Sky Captain of Yeasteryear" outfit/setting/airplane from season 3 references Tales of the Gold Monkey.
Lana's car during the Grand Prix is white with a red and blue stripe and the number 53.
Benoist, the Matre D' Hotel from the Grand Prix episode may be a shoutout to Robert Benoist, Grand Prix driver and, interestingly enough, wartime spy.
The Ray viral video is a reference to the opening credits of Ironside starring Raymond Burr.
In the second part of the third season finale, there is a security alert calling attention to Pod 6. Which is full of jerks.
While on the space station, Barry clinks beer bottles together while chanting, "Archer, come out to plaaay!" This is a reference to Luther doing the same thing in the climax of The Warriors.
Barry exposes his cyborg innards at the end of Season 2 in the exact same manner Quinn did in the first pilot of Sealab 2021.
