Archer

Here ’s the signification behindArcherseason 9 instalment 1 ’s morse code gag explained , and what the code itself really stand up for . For the bulk of its run , Archerhas been a workplace comedy about a very dysfunctional spy and his defective colleagues . The show has also featured some themed seasons over the years , start withArcher Vicefor time of year 5 before move into a trilogy of " coma " season .

Archerseason 7 ended with the title spy riddled with bullets and lie down facedown in a swimming pool , with time of year 8 - dubbedArcher : Dreamland- taking place inside his own mind while he ’s in a comatoseness . The next serial changed up the location once again , withArcher : Danger Islandset in the thirties and becoming more of an one-time - fashioned adventure serial publication .

Archerseason 9 episode 1 opens with a title scene reference   the new theme , which admit Cyril - in his newfangled persona asDanger Island’sFuchs - typing out something in morse computer code . This translates to 934TXS , which is a code that has recurred throughout every time of year of the show . There was much debate among longtime viewers as to what the import of this code might be , but it was n’t until Comic - Con in 2019 thatArcherproducer and managing director Matt Thompson finally explained what it means .

Thompson bring out that in New York during the nineties that he andArchercreator Adam Reed used to call up a service dubbed Dr. P. Haze , which was a sess delivery service . They were given the first three numbers and during the call they would have to give a codification word , with their codification being 934TXS . This codification was also used in their previous animated showSealab 2021 , and it pee-pee sense that when it came to writing scene involving decrypting numbers or codes , 934TXS might be the first thing that came to mind for the duo .

Archerseason 9 episode 1 did a bully job setting up the newfangled dynamic for the time of year , withArcherdream vagabond all the key people in his life in fitting persona . The concept itself is a reference to an obscure 1980 ’s ABC serial publication calledTales Of The Golden Monkey , an adventure show that was one of Reed ’s favorites as a kid . Again , the response toDanger Island’spremise was mixed , but it was one of the show ’s most purely fun seasons .
