Jessica Walter, the award-winning actress whose career spanned five decades, passed away in her sleep at home in New York City on Wednesday, March 24. She was 80.
Walter’s career included everything from a standout turn in Clint Eastwood’s directorial debut, Play Misty for Me, to The Flamingo Kid and her Emmy-nominated turns on Trapper John M..D. and Streets of San Francisco. For her performance as Lucille Bluth in Arrested Development, Walter earned yet another Emmy nomination (Outstanding Supporting Actress) and two SAG nominations.
Walter won an Emmy starring in Amy Prentiss, an Ironside spinoff in the mid-1970s about a young San Francisco police detective. She also voiced Malory Archer on FXX’s animated series Archer.

Thinking about Archer Season 11 and 12. Not sure where Archer S12 is in their development, but it will be emotional if they can tie this in, even more so after they showed in Season 11 -
Spoiler!
her character sleeping by Archer's bedside in his coma. A real human side to her and then she's gone
Oh man, I really loved her delivery and out of nowhere humor. She was really the glue that held Archer together. I almost don't want Archer to continue without her, it won't be half the show.
