The Archie Show (Season 1)

The Archie Show (1968) is a Filmation cartoon you can watch online on iFILM. Red-haired teenager Archie Andrews and his Riverdale crew muddle through ordinary high-school life: classes, crushes, and rehearsals for their own garage band.

The series draws on Bob Montana's comic strips, which had been running since 1941. It premiered on CBS in the fall of 1968 and lasted a single season — seventeen half-hour shows, each split into two short stories. Its real hook was the in-show band, The Archies, whose bubblegum smash "Sugar, Sugar," sung by Ron Dante and Toni Wine, jumped straight off the screen and onto the radio. A breezy late-sixties teen comedy that doubles as a time capsule of the era. Stream The Archie Show (1968) online on iFILM.
