Jessica Walter remembered with Executive Producer Matt Thompson. (Mission:Difficult S12E8)

Executive Producer Matt Thompson joins Amber Nash (Pam Poovey) to talk about Mission: Difficult — the season finale that also marked a heartfelt goodbye to the legendary Jessica Walter. Amber and Matt look back on the early days of Archer, reflect on Jessica’s unforgettable presence, and share personal stories about what made her so special — from her love of martinis to her crush on Henry Cavill. Matt remembers her as spunky, sharp, and unafraid to speak her mind. They also dig into how Archer characters came to resemble the actors who voiced them, the incredible guest stars who joined this episode, and of course, Matt’s long-standing reputation as a world-class prankster. It’s a tribute, a behind-the-scenes deep dive, and a reminder of just how much heart went into Archer from the very beginning. FX’s Archer is now streaming on Hulu.
