No one in Riverdale is ever having a really good time, but Archie especially has had a rough go.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Just this season, the poor kid has had to endure torture in juvie, was nearly made a sacrifice, had to escape a prison fight club by crawling through a sewer right after being stabbed, then had to run away to Canada because his girlfriend’s dad was trying to kill him, then became a park ranger where he was attacked by a bear, only to come back to discover that his girlfriend\/sorta ex-girlfriend had started hooking up with one of his best frenemies, and he wasn’t ready for the SATs<\/p>\n

Archie lives a rough life, and apparently that’s not changing any time soon.\u00a0<\/p>\n

E! News talked to the star at Annenberg PetSpace, where he was on hand supporting a partnership between ASPCA and Bumble, and he made it clear that the show isn’t cooling down.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“We’re in another universe essentially. The writers can do whatever they want. Like, I got attacked by a bear,” he told us. “I’ve done the craziest stuff on this show, so they can take it as far as they want.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

When asked if things might at least get a little calmer for Archie himself, Apa gave a pretty definitive no.<\/p>\n

“Does Archie ever get a break? No, he doesn’t,” Apa says. “I don’t expect Archie to get a break any time soon.”\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Riverdale<\/em> airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. on the CW.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
