Overview

The New Archies offers a playful twist on the beloved Archie comic universe, presenting familiar characters like Archie Andrews, Betty Cooper, Veronica Lodge, Jughead Jones, and Reggie Mantle as pre-teens navigating junior high life. Produced by DIC Entertainment and first aired on NBC in 1987, this animated series featured thirteen episodes during its sole season. The show's charm led to a brief comic book series sharing its name and universe. Later, reruns entertained young audiences on The Family Channel from 1991 to 1993 and on Toon Disney from 1998 to 2002, reviving the Riverdale spirit.
