The animated comedy will return in 2021.
October 21, 2020
FXX announced today that Archer has been picked up for a 12th season. The good news comes a week before the current season's finale, which will wrap another solid run for the animated comedy.
On the air since 2009, the half-hour series still performs well for the cable network. At over 100 episodes it still draws a healthy audience, with Season 11 tallying 2.43 million viewers each episode across its distribution platforms. That's an increase of 32% compared to last year.
This season saw Archer awaken from his years-long coma to resume his spy work, though the world is quite different now than he remembers it. The show spent the last three seasons in different locales, which included 1940s Los Angeles, a deserted island in 1938, and even outer space.
Look for Season 12 of Archer in 2021.

It should have about 20 seasons ...
But more episodes .... Onwards and upwards
More guest appearances to embarrass sterling like Burt Reynolds
And I'm shocked at Season 12. Could have sworn 11 was supposed to be the last.
I am surprised and delighted at this news.
I heard that not only was season 11 renewal out of left field but it was to be their last.
