Archibald Asparagus is a character who has a taste for class and wants more than anything to turn the usually wacky VeggieTales into a more highbrow production. Archibald was inspired by the Monty Python's Flying Circus character, The Colonel, a stuffy army officer, who occasionally appeared out of nowhere to order the end of a sketch. He has a wife, which he calls Lovey.
His 3D-animated depiction has remained generally the same over the years, except that the vectors have become less-sharp with rising CG technology. He also had a side-mouth in earlier shows. He wears a light gray monocle and a red bowtie. The glass was added when they started using Maya. Archibald first appeared in Where's God When I'm S-Scared? as an interrupter in the Silly Song, The Waterbuffalo Song and King Darius in Daniel and the Lions' Den.

Archibald is the main character playing Jonah in Jonah: A VeggieTales Movie and a butler named Willory in The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything: A VeggieTales Movie.
