This show was like an American teen show written by Mexican telenovela writers. I’d see one day Archie is a boxer, another day he’s like racing cars, then he’s a gang leader. What a weird ass show, my wife liked it but she says it got weirder and weirder
I watched some of this as it was coming out. At one point the main character’s girlfriend had to strip herself into a gang in front of her boyfriend’s dad to save the bf. There was also a family who just murdered people kind of casually to protect their maple syrup business. This was all in like 1.5 seasons before I feel off the show. It was wild.
It gets worse, there is a Gargoyle King.
Did this show ever get good?
Honestly? Season 1 was campy and fun for what it was. I have no idea why the writers went as crazy as they did with superpowers, cults, a nuclear bomb(?!), but it’s not like the series started off on a bad foot anyway
I actually liked season 1 and was looking forward to 2. Then it got weird and lost me.
Ditto. It was never good but it was actually a interesting teen mystery thriller that came off as a good satire at times
It sounds like the return of the classic soap opera but fur Gen Z
In the 2000s we didn’t do soaps as much, but we just gave shows to writers who didn’t know what they wanted to do, just as long as they included aliens and government conspiracies.
Goodbye Archie’s Creek.
What the hell is that?
Show loosely based on the old Archie comics. Led by a guy who previously wrote a play about Archie living in Superman’s Metropolis, rooming and making out with a man heavily implied to be based on a real life serial killer. In hindsight, its a surprise Archie didn’t stop a nuclear bomb with his abs in S1.
It was a rollercoaster of what the fuck.
