Title: Archie's Dating Life
Post by: Midge Klump on June 24, 2016, 02:26:34 PM
So Archie Andrews has dated just about every girl in Riverdale and the surrounding counties, but has there ever been a story where he has gone out on a date with Ethel? I don't seem to recall ever reading something like that before.

I think he has, or was that her with Reggie, who actually liked it? I know Archie took her out during the Prom Showdown story, but he (surprise) treats her miserably, leaving her to find Betty and Ronica...

Leave it to Archie to treat a girl miserably.

Yes, there was a story where he took Ethel to the prom. B&V mainly shamed him into it, after the usual bout of indecision over whether he'd ask Betty or Veronica, and they both agreed to sit this prom out in favor of Archie asking Ethel.

Yeah, I remember that one. Didn't he end up having a good time, and kissed her goodnight or something?

You know how they're always making these "themed" versions of popular board games today (started with just MONOPOLY, but now it's spread to all kinds of differerent board games)? So, like STAR WARS RISK, or THE SIMPSONS OPERATION...

I was just thinking they should bring back this old game from 1965, MYSTERY DATE'
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHsQpTbQ9Uo (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHsQpTbQ9Uo),
And do it using all the Archie characters. It would be hilarious. I guess they should probably rename it MISERY DATE.

And then I just did an image search for the game, and discovered it's already been re-released a bunch of times, but like 20 years or so ago they updated it to some electronic version.  None of that stuff, I'm talking about the original version that looked like this:

Only they have to replace all the board graphics and cards and stuff with Archie characters on them.
