Liezel dela Cruz

In the birth of a more “aggressive” era of teleseryes, Kapamilya series “<a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/seniorhigh2023">Senior High</a>” definitely deserves your attention. The dark coming-of-age mystery drama boldly dives deep into the rotten system of a prestigious campus called Northford High and throws light on everyday teenage issues that are often kept under wraps. It’s something new in the local primetime teleserye landscape, making it much more fascinating.But even the most riveting plot will not stand alone without a formidable cast in command of their characters. And from the show’s ‘walang tapon’ ensemble, Elijah Canlas owns his spotlight as the dangerous power tripper Archie. Marvel at his accurate portrayal via this Kapamilya Toplist video.Tackling the issue of substance abuse among teens is quite a bold move for “<a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/seniorhigh2023">Senior High</a>,” considering that it’s a topic often talked about in hushed voices. And we can all agree that the creatives did a great job picking the right actors to paint this angle with much realism.Eljah’s Archie suffers from substance addiction, which is rampant in Northford High. As the story progresses, the roots of his addiction are expected to become clearer. We see that childhood trauma is one factor.Elijah&#x27;s portrayal of a young man lured by drugs is highly on-point. Watch his raw reaction when his character was high and overwhelmed by emotions during his conversation with Gio (JK Labajo). He was angered by everyone around him, especially by the fact that Gio seemed to have played with Z (Daniela Stranner)’s feelings by two-timing her with Luna (Andrea Brillantes).In the next scene, he went to a bar, and influenced by drugs, suffered from hallucinations that he started seeing Luna&#x27;s ghost. He bumped into Sky (Andrea Brillantes), Roxy (Xyriel Manabat), and Tim (Zaijian Jaranilla) and fell unconscious after an episode of tremors.That Elijah-Baron Geisler moment was like a gift from the acting heavens. In this scene, Harry (Baron) tried to discipline his son, who was confined in a hospital, by forcing him to tell the truth so he&#x27;d know which part needs to be fixed. Archie boldly talked back hinting that he knows every fiber of Harry’s secret, coating the father-son confrontation with more realism and brutal glory.As if that wasn’t intense enough, the next scene adds Desiree del Valle (playing Sasha) and Angel Aquino (playing Tanya) in the mix. Here, Archie spilled Tanya and Harry’s illicit affair that bore the twins Sky and Luna.His scenes with the other young cast members like Andrea, Zaijian, and Xyriel are equally epic without much dialogue. Aren’t these youngsters the newest topnotchers in the ‘mata-mata’ school of acting? One time, he threatened Sky’s group with his rude sarcasm, to which Sky didn’t shrink down. In some scenes, he’d clash with Kyle Echarri’s Obet, a discreet drug pusher on campus.One time, he ruined Tim and Roxy’s party mood by literally bumping into them and touching Roxy’s behind. The young pair exacted revenge by destroying Archie’s car, which was unfortunately caught on Poch (Miggy Jimenez)’s camera. With strong evidence in his hand, Archie manipulated the situation by feigning kindness to Roxy and Tim in front of the principal. But later on, he would extort money from them.The plot thickens, so be sure to catch all episodes of “<a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/seniorhigh2023">Senior High</a>,” weeknights, on <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/articles-news/kapamilya-channel-livestream-12685">Kapamilya Channel</a>, <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/articles-news/kapamilya-channel-livestream-12685">Kapamilya Online Live</a>, TV5, and A2Z.
