The second season of Archer commenced airing on January 27, 2011, and had 13 episodes. The season finale aired on April 21, 2011.

A few changes were made to the show for season 2. Amber Nash, the voice of Pam Poovey was added to the main credited cast. The opening sequence was modified to include her name, as well as her dolphin hand puppet chasing the "bullet."

Some other changes were noticed by fans of the show. One of the most notable being Archer's skills as the "world's most dangerous spy." In Season 1, his skills as a spy were not showcased very often, so many fans believed he lacked many of the skills. This was proven otherwise with this season's first episode, "Swiss Miss." Here Archer had many opportunities to show that he was a fairly capable field agent.

This season increased the show's focus on the Archer supporting cast. This included adding more frequent appearances by the character of Ray Gillette. Instead of being chained to the ISIS control room, he has now been able to get out an about as an ISIS field agent. Also, details about the backstories of Pam, Cheryl and Doctor Krieger were revealed.

Furthermore, this season saw the addition of numerous two-part episodes. These were episodes in which the broad story was told over two episodes. They didn't follow the traditional television model of adding a "to be continued" tag at the end, but they did end "Stage Two" and "White Nights" on somewhat dramatic cliffhangers.

On a side note, every episode of the second season starts with a character's face at least partially obscured by the TV rating box in the upper left corner of the screen. This was done on purpose by the creater as a protest to a previous accidental incedent in which they refused to move the box.
