Trivia
ADD TRIVIA
- The Archer production team has worked with a couple of writers, but the episodes not written by Adam have ended up being heavily rewritten. So as of 2011, "the writer's room" is pretty much just him.
  Edit Share Hide
- Adam has said that working with FX Network (on Archer) has been a new experience for him, in that they request character development whereas Cartoon Network didn't care. He finds the characters of Pam and Cheryl to be particularly fun to write with because they got "a pass" from the network as far as behaving logically.
  Edit Share Hide
- Adam was an English major, and his favorite book is A Once and Future King, by T.H. White.

ADD QUOTES
- Adam: As a frustrated English major, it's nice to have people pick up on these really obscure references.
  Edit Share Hide
- (about the inspiration for Archer) Adam: It was our past two cartoons. We sort of established adventure genre and tried to crack it open and mess it up as much as we could. So we had an undersea laboratory [in Sealab 2021], which I guess is not that well-known of a genre, and then we had superheroes [in Frisky Dingo]. So global espionage just sort of seemed to be the logical next step.
  Edit Share Hide
- (about character Ray Gillette, whom he voices on Archer) Adam: I think he's one of the few voices of reason in the show. Like he's an actual nice person, slightly catty, but definitely I think, probably deep down a better person than ninety percent of the other people at ISIS.
