Archer: 10 CRAZY Cheryl Moments

Initially, Cheryl – or Carol as she was nonchalantly called by Archer – was simply the disgruntled office secretary and another woman in Archer’s endless list of “conquests”. However, a few episodes into the first season, the showrunners transformed her into the sex-crazed menace we know and love (?) today.

By the time the fifth episode “Honeypot” rolled around, Cheryl was fully embracing her role as the office pervert, to the chagrin of her co-workers and the delight of the watchers at home. The entire episode revolves around sex, with Archer being enlisted to seduce a man to gain back what is surely one of Malory’s many, many, many sex tapes.

Meanwhile, the perpetually angry Lana tries to find out her then-boyfriend Cyril’s answers to an office-wide game of “kill, bang, marry”, who was manipulated by Cheryl into participating. Whilst Cheryl makes it clear that she finds the idea of being killed a turn-on throughout the episode, none of us were prepared for her fantasy.

Sprawled on the desk, Cheryl tells Lana and Pam her fantasy is to be rescued by a fireman, only for him to “choke the s**t” out of her until her eye pops out. Understandably and hilariously, Lana and Pam stare bewildered for an awkward few seconds before berating her. It’s a shocking moment, but in all the good ways and makes for a unforgettable part of Cheryl’s endless resume of depravity.
