Ugh they're gonna fuck Riverdale up with the expanded universe bullshit just the way the cw did with Arrow, aren't they?

i can only see them doing these two shows. a jughead or betty and veronica spinoff would be stupid for instance.

riverdale was lots of fun. I'm looking forward to this.

 

[Slayven]

It's a CW show. It's definitely going to be like the latter

It should be shooting to be as good as Supernatural

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

If it wasn't for the license running out, then this would be the perfect 3rd show for the TV Archieverse:

 

[Cipherr]

My fiancée and I binged through Riverdale a few months back when we didn't have anything else to watch. It's like CW's final form or some shit - impossibly beautiful people, moody drama, clearly being shot in Vancouver, etc.

lmao

Most likely it'll only be a Sabrina spinoff, and maybe they'll have a crossover or something for the Halloween episode - which sounds pretty cool to me. Maybe they'll make a Josie spinoff eventually, but I doubt it. Those characters don't seem popular enough atm.

Also, I'm pretty sure the show runner (Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa) had the whole Sabrina thing in mind before the show even took off, since he is the mind behind Afterlife with Archie and Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. So hopefully, if he had it in mind, he can bring it to the universe and do justice to both Riverdale & Sabrina/Greendale.

I would love it if the show ends up being like the comics but I'm fully expecting a Supernatural type show. I guess I'm also fine with that.

 

[Briarios]

Seriously, no one but Dove Cameron makes sense for this role right now lol Archie Comics wants it, Dove Cameron wants it, so it's just up to the producers:

 

[xaosslug]

The show i was hoping Riverdale was going to be, instead of being an archie skinned WB drama

this is the CW... I'd temper my expectations. LOL

 

[Sickboy007]

Nah, just bring Nate Richert in for some badass cameos.

I watched all 10 seasons of Smallville, The CW can't hurt me anymore

I watched all 10 seasons of Smallville

I don't know if this is the source of all your problems or just another symptom, but either way this is disturbingly in-character for you, Slay.

how much longer can dove cameron even stay. she did liv and maddie and the 2 descendants movie. i'm sure disney already have some other stars to replace her. i mean how many shows they got now.

maybe they already tapped her for sabrina. which is why it's been quiet on riverdale front

 

[cj_iwakura]

So wait, does this mean no Sabrina in Riverdale?

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

The show i was hoping Riverdale was going to be, instead of being an archie skinned WB drama

Seriously. I was really hoping for Weird Archie.

 

[Not]

Wow, Tom Welling is a 40-year-old man

 

[DonMigs85]

I'm waiting for the grim take on Li'l Jinx

 

[ryseing]

So true. Riverdale was a big disappointment imo.

If you went in with the right expectations it was a ton of fun. Luke Perry and Madison Amchek were absolutely wonderful.

 

[Funky Papa]

Oh shit, that was a good ass book. Surprisingly gritty, it may shock some people only familiarised with the previous TV show.

The CW already knows how to do gritty, so I hope they get somebody competent to helm the project.

Melissa Joan Hart as

Aunt Hilda

Nah, Melissa Joan Hart as Cthulhu.

It's a CW show. It's definitely going to be like the latter

The 100 is all manners of fucked up at times, tho.

I think the article mentioned that the writer is the showrunner.

 

[Zen Aku]

Approaching "Clooney-hot" zone.

 

[nitronite]

They should make a Sabrina: the middle-aged witch instead. Would be more relatable to fans of the original show.

 

[Dandy Lyin]

Can't wait! Riverdale is such a guilty pleasure.

 

[Broken Joystick]

Are they impossibly beautiful? Betty and Veronica are beautiful people for sure but they're not the crazy ridiculous CW standard. I thought they were a bit more relatable to good looking normal people rather than how do you even exist actresses. They all look like they're actually in their age range too unlike say...their predecessors who were the same age but looked like they were seniors in college.

Impossibly hot

 

[jwk94]

Impossibly hot

Nah they're not that hot... Compared to the new Reggie. Dude makes the entire CW line-up look average. He's so out of place.

 

[Discotheque]

jeeesus. this betty and veronica were like the new audrey/shelly for me in hotness. great casting, were consistently the best things about riverdale.

 

[Platy]

Nah, Melissa Joan Hart as Cthulhu.

As the witch that originally cursed Salem.
Which is like his ex girlfriend.

it is perfect

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

I haven't seen that dude in anything for years.

GODDAMN someone airbrushed Cole Sprouse the right way

 

[Bronx-Man]

Love it, but I still want Afterlife with Archie

 

[Suite Pee]

So, Sabrina but she fucks

 

[BoogieWoogie]

I haven't seen that dude in anything for years.

If you do a tv show for 10 years, you're set. Residuals alone would take care of you for life if you weren't living a crazy lavish lifestyle.

Impossibly hot

That's a magazine cover! Everyone looks impossibly hot on a magazine cover.

Damn Betty...

 

[jon bones]

yeah they made betty so homely in so much of s1 you forget how crazy hot she is wowza

 

[Not]

Betty was one of the most attractive humans I've ever seen in S1. Ponytail and all. "Homely," holy crap.

 

[cj_iwakura]

I just finished reading the graphic novel and it's amazing. I have a question though...

Spoiler

So since Sabrina didn't sign her name, does that mean she didn't become a full witch?
