** "Twisted Youth" involves Miss Grundy transforming into a [[Series/{{Riverdale}} younger woman and flirting with Reggie and Archie]].(Though in ''Riverdale's'' case [[spoiler:it turned out that a young woman had stolen Miss Grundy's identity.]]) Archie is [[ItWillNeverCatchOn grossed out beyond all belief]].
** The popular ''Afterlife with Archie, Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, Vampironica'', etc. comics would later make use of putting Archie and his friends in the horror genre.

* DiagnosedByTheAudience: Jughead being "different" is mentioned pretty frequently here, sometimes along with an aesop of not looking down on those who are different. His train of thought is pretty off from everyone else's, he can get overly focused to the point of blocking out the world around him or have his mind wander to weird thoughts, and his social behavior is at best a lot less toned than everyone else's (such as literally pounding a table from laughing too hard). Depending on the episode, it can be even more or less pronounced; most traits line up with the autism spectrum, but there are also plenty that are just weird quirks.

** An energy drink that turns a certain portion of people into monsters is created and marketed by Zoom Co. in "Monster In The Night;" a similar plot appears in ''VideoGame/SunsetOverdrive'' where a company called ''Fizz'' Co. creates an energy drink that turns everyone who drinks it into monsters. Both companies try to cover this up, [[spoiler: but Zoom Co. actually fixes the problem and also doesn't want Riverdale to miss out on the jobs their new plant will bring while offering large payouts to those affected by the formula like Archies while Fizz Co. just wants to cover their tracks and isn't above killing people to do so]].

** "Me! Me! Me!" has everyone gradually turning into Veronica. This is ironic if you are a ''Franchise/ResidentEvil'' fan, since there is actually a virus called T-Veronica.

* AmateurCast: Most, if not all, of the voice actors were based out of Omaha, Nebraska and barely have any other credits to their names (aside from Creator/AndrewRannells).

** Archie being a massive ChickMagnet, not to mention normally being goo-goo eyed with pretty girls, would be hilarious when finds out his voice actor in this series, Andrew Rannells, is openly gay. After retiring from voice acting, mostly anime dubbing, for several years, he'd return to adult-oriented shows like ''WesternAnimation/BobsBurgers'' and ''WesternAnimation/Invincible2021'', where he would play openly gay characters.

** [[Recap/ArchiesWeirdMysteriesArchiesDateWithFate Time]]-[[Recap/ArchiesWeirdMysteriesAlternateRiverdales Travel]] [[Recap/ArchiesWeirdMysteriesTeenOutOfTime Trilogy]]: [[FromNobodyToNightmare Vinnie Wells]] was just a two-bit thug until he got a hold of the Chrono Field Generator, a time machine which he tried to use to rob the Riverdale Bank. After being thwarted by Archie Andrews, Vinnie [[MyFutureSelfAndMe teams-up with his future self]], and together the two torment Archie by repeatedly altering history before creating a timeline where Archie is a pariah and Young Vinnie is GodEmperor of Earth. Old Vinnie then tries to [[RetGone stop Archie from being born]], but instead accidentally erases his own past self before becoming lost in the time stream while fighting Archie. Eventually escaping back to present day Riverdale, Vinnie decides to simply destroy the town and kill everyone in it using a time-displaced ''TyrannosaurusRex''. When the beast corners Archie, Vinnie taunts the teen by describing how happy it makes him that Archie's last thoughts before dying will be of how he failed to prevent his family, friends and beloved Riverdale from meeting the same grisly fate.
