“It’s just the most awful thing, and we didn’t want to have anything to do with it. There were people online saying that we should address it and say, ‘Oh, I can’t believe these guys have co-opted our name.’ That’s the way South Park would do it, coming after them and saying, ‘These *******s stole our name,’ but that’s not the way the Archer universe works, where it’s all our own creations. In our universe, they don’t exist,” he explained.
Reed admitted that there was now a lot of Archer merchandise destined for the landfill.
I was at a meeting with the FX execs and I said, ‘You know, with all this extra Isis merchandise, you should just make the bad guys buy it.’ Dead silence.

Seems fair enough. Also best case scenario is it's a few easy jokes. Worse case - people get upset, dumb media gets hold of it, and it becomes a whole load of hassle.
