Like it but Jughead...


I understand it's a dark Twin peaks-esque take on the Archie comics. but does anyone not like how they took away Jughead's sense of humor. I dont mind the story or actor, but he had this Niles crane dry sense of humor in the comics. He could just have a bit of it to bring some more charm to his character~

I like the actor but i really wish the directors/producers/lizardpeople had chosen to give the character more levity and humot. also burgers, like he doesnt have to eat them all the time but i just feel he doesn't really love burgers as he ought to.

Wait... this is based on a comic book?

Yeah the Archie Comics.

To be perfectly clear, the only thing they did was take the names of the town, places and characters of the original comics - originally, they were pretty clean cut and wholesome and would not have made an interesting show in 2018.

But in the comics Archie did nail Miss Grundy right? Right in the back of the old jalopy...and I don't mean his car. You've been a great crowd ladies and gentlemen, thank you very much!
