Strangely, despite the songs rather iconic nature, Loggins most infamous hit found entirely new levels of popularity with the introduction of the animated FX TV show Archer. Superspy Sterling Archer tends to pull out the two most famous parts of the songs title with the catchphrase "Danger Zone," whenever attempting to truly annoy his coworkers or get a worthless point out into the open. Producers of the show have managed to capitalise on the popularity of the reference with a short video where Archer characters reenact the music video for Danger Zone shot by shot. The character Krieger portrays the role of Kenny Loggins in this music video adaptation, with Sterling Archer taking the role of Maverick. However, Archer was nowhere near done using Danger Zone for their own means; season 5 of the show features an animated version of Kenny Loggins, when he performs a special duet version of the song with an "Outlaw Country" star Cherlene.
