{{quote|'''Colonel Jakov''': "Hello? What is the frequency?"
'''Archer''': "...[[wikipedia:William Tager|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 [[Jeeves and Wooster (novel)|Woodhouse]].
* Malory's rivalry with their friend Trudy Beekman is a reference to Lucille's rivalry with her neighbor/friend in ''[[Arrested Development (TV series)|Arrested Development]]''. The actress plays both characters. Sterling even says, "Wow, you don't get along with your neighbors anywhere."
Line 17:
'''Cyril:''' Seven-six-two millimeter. [[Full Metal Jacket|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 [[A Clockwork Orange (novel)|the Ludovico Treatment]] in "A Going Concern."
* [[Of Mice and Men|Give her the rabbit, Lenny!]]
Line 30:
* 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 [[Die Hard|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 [[Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy|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 [[The Love Bug|white with a red and blue stripe and the number 53]].
Line 36:
* The [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9q7bnGFrh40 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 [[Sealab 2021|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 (film)|The Warriors]]''.
* Barry {{spoiler|exposes his cyborg innards}} at the end of Season 2 in the exact same manner Quinn did in the first pilot of ''[[Sealab 2021]]''.
