If you’ve been keeping up with the all-too-addicting CW series Riverdale, then you may have unexpectedly grown attached to Jughead like I have over the course of the first season. Although Archie is the lead of the series and the gorgeous high schooler that has it all, his best friend has been the main guy to unknowingly steal most of my attention. Here are the reasons why I think Jughead is the real star of the show!
1. He takes his (very daunting) problems in strideÂ
2. He’s incredibly loyalÂ
3. He’s far better suited for BettyÂ
4. He’s fiercely independentÂ
5. His hat is an adorable staple to his characterÂ
6. It’s an added bonus that he’s very good lookingÂ
7. He has a darker sense of humorÂ
8. He goes out of his way to discover the truthÂ
9. He’s a dedicated writerÂ
10. He stands up for what he believes inÂ
11. He has a love for food and frequents Pop’s more than any other characterÂ
12. He sees people for who they really areÂ
13. He isn’t naive
Example: He knows better than to have an affair with his teacher.
14. He’s caring and comfortingÂ
15. He’s played by Cole Sprouse (need I say more?)Â
Forever the best guy on Riverdale. Love you, Juggie!
