Archer Season 4 Crossover! Can You Smell What the Belcher is Cooking?

Sterling Archer is too awesome to contain on one show, even on one channel, so FX and FOX have cooked up a crossover between the most dangerous man on television and the grillmaster from Bob’s Burgers, Bob Belcher. Let me get this out first, full disclosure, I had never even heard of Bob’s Burgers until today, so while not the ultimate in crossovers like an Archer/Tick special for me would be personally, I’m sure it means something to someone, as Bob has garnered some Emmy play for FOX. Luckily for me, I think Archer makes everthing hot by mere association.

EW broke the word of the crossover, that will occur in Archer’s fourth season. This makes perfect sense to me because the FX platform allows for more room for damage that may not play as well at FOX (though please correct me if I’m wrong because as I said, I don’t watch Bob’s Burgers). Also, it’s not too hard to make this happen because both characters are voiced by H. Jon Benjamin, proof of which is that the episode is already in the can and recorded from his end. The animation will be Archer style though the word is that Bob and his wife – they left the kids at home – will be clearly recognizable. As for the plot, Archer creator Adam Reed is calling it a Bourne-like story

FX hasn’t announced a season 4 Archer premiere date yet, but the world is prepared to be better whenever it arrives.
