Archie, mystères et compagnie

WHY this show aired! It's too stupid and unrealistic for adults (except for absolute die-hard Archie fans) and for kids, well, it's filled with monsters, vampires, aliens etc. that aren't people in costumes (unlike Scooby Doo). Don't see it unless you're paid at least $9 000.

I kinda love Archie Comics. The quality varies for sure (sometimes you'll get an entire digest filled with boring stories), but overall, there's something immensely appealing to me about the Riverdale gang. I love the art style, the amusing character interactions, and - to be honest - the inanity and goofiness of it all. I'm not devoted enough to actually get a subscription, but I buy a digest here and there when I can.

When I learned of this show (which I had previously never heard of) airing late at night on Qubo, I was determined to give it a try, since - well - it's Archie. At first, though, I thought I was only watching out of loyalty to the franchise - the first episode I watched seemed pretty lame. Thankfully, though, I stuck with it and was pleasantly surprised.

Sure, this show won't be everyone's cup of tea. The animation is fine, but it's not great - sometimes it seems the style varies slightly between episodes (things like Archie's freckle size and shape, for example). And the average episode contains at least a couple minor plot holes.

And yet, there's a lot about this show that's just wonderful. Part of the appeal is just how goofy it (as my Dad put it, "Who read an Archie comic and then decided to make this?"), but the B-movie- inspired stories are actually often quite interesting, entertaining, and sometimes even have some depth, drama and creepiness (which is especially surprising for a show based on...Archie). Of course, this is all tempered by lots of humor, and while sometimes it misses the mark, other times it's hilarious.

This is the sort of show you just have to see to believe. Somehow, it manages to combine a ludicrous premise, interesting scenarios, occasional depth and intensity, and light-hearted goofiness into an effective, entertaining work of fiction. It's not the deepest or most well-written thing, but it's sort of fun and incredible in its own weird way.

Whether you're an Archie Comics fan or just someone who enjoys obscure kids' shows, I recommend you at least give AWM a try. Who knows, you might end up loving it!

This is a fun cartoon. Archie writes a "Weird Mysteries" column for his school newspaper and that leads him and his friends into wild adventures. The creators obviously realized that the stories in the Archie comics were too boring and repetitive (high-school life, dating, etc.) so they added the weird mystery angle.

The animation isn't great, but the voice work is very good and the stories are exciting and sometimes actually spooky... all in a little town called Riverdale.

There's been many Archie adaptations throughout the years but this series is the best there is. The characters and animation are completely authentic to the comics. Its plot is Scooby Doo meets Archie and although it's cheesy at times... what else do expect from an Archie comic adaption? The characters voice overs are definitely for the younger generation but sound exactly how you expect them too. It's a fun authentic ride all the way through with the episodes concluding in lessons focused on character, such as; greed, loyalty and forgiveness. Anyone who is a fan of the comics will definitely enjoy the series more than other adaptation out there.

As a young kid this was always on TV but when i see the reviews on imdb its not as popular as i thought it was. Archies weird mysteries is a classic and i love this show. Always will. They should do 3 more seasons and revive the series.
