i mean it's not like it's 20+ episodes.
The CW ratings are pretty awful. It's all about those secret Netflix numbers.
Most people I know (not comic book or CW folks by any stretch) are aware of the show or have seen it thanks to strong Netflix presence. Will be interesting if there's a similar effect after it hits US Netflix and whether an audience builds over hiatus.
Breaks are an unfortunate evil in television. Very hard to schedule an uninterrupted run without tripping over some holiday or event or whatever. For Riverdale if they could get like an 8/8 split like TWD that'd suit the show and Netflix nicely.

last time i checked its averaging about 2 million viewers after dvr and on demand viewing is included. which is about in line with other shows (i.e. half the audience never watches these things live)

personally i'm going to wait til the show is on netflix to check it out...too much other gaming and tv content to consume at the moment.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
You're not part of the Nielsen ratings because you'd either have a box on your TV given to you by the Nielsen company or you'd be filling out a weekly journal of what you're watching for them.

Maybe it's the sadist in me, but I'm really looking forward to that moment.
lmao the entire time
Betty is just thinking that could have been me and Archie

The almond milk in my fridge went bad from Betty's sour look. I didn't even know almond milk could go bad! Cheryl and Betty both look shook.
I think Detective Betty has just figured out Archie and Veronica hooked up by their stage chemistry. She's the Batman of Riverdale.
No idea why Cheryl cares.

Probably the story thread from the week before last where
Cheryl was supposedly hooking up with Archie and Archie rejected her. Guessing she's jealous like Betty.
Looking forward to next Thursday!
choreography is a little odd
That is practice right, does that routine from the game look better?
She looks kind of heartbroken even. Betty thinks she can still win while Cheryl knows she had lost.

Oh Betty, cheer up! Your two bffs are singing on stage so beautifully together!!! =)
No joke. I was five episodes in on netflix before I even knew this show was on tv.
I dont really watch any network TV though. I just happened to see a commercial for it while watching the news on KTLA one day.

Yeah, you're probably right.
Never considered her feelings might be genuine.

My prediction is Archie will go off with his mom to Chi-Raq for the summer. Probably more music opportunities there.
Killer Prediction: Ethel. Sometimes Polly sets off my alarm too. Redheads and Cooper Women are not to be trusted.

Nah, she still remembers that vicious Twincest burn that Veronica inflicted on her in the last episode.

Greg Berlanti's shows have been made such casting gags for years now. Dad Flash was the Flash, mom Supergirl was Supergirl, dad Supergirl was Superman, ...
Mark Consuelos was cast as Hiram Lodge.

This last episode was weird. Hopefully the next is better.

Wuhhh it's the best one yet imo. Only wish it was a bottle episode taking place entirely at the party.

CW will cake his face so he will look like hes in high school.
She'd be the perfect Lily for the resurrection of the Gossip Girl spin-off that didn't end up happening...

Interesting. I'm ready. Watching on Netflix and wish they could have put it out in 13 consecutive weeks but show has kept me interested regardless.
Reggie is being recast for season 2 since the actor has commitments to 13 Reasons Why

Wtf.
Can't they work around it? It's not like he's in the show much.
They say in the article, one reason why recasting. Due to his other commitments couldn't use him as much as wanted.
Awful news. I'm wary both of a new Reggie and of a second season of 13 reasons why (first one was excellent but it really should be only one). I'll try to keep an open mind.

All of the characters aside from Betty, Archie, Jughead, Veronica, Cheryl, and their parents have been given short shrift. More Reggie/Dilton/Moose/Ethel/Midge/Kevin, please.

Makes sense. Guess the actor wins either way. Both shows have cultivated themselves a very fervent young fanbase. That's good to have pushing your name for an up and coming actor. In premise, I don't know how much gas 13 Reason Why could possibly have in the tank but it'll lead to other roles. And there was so little Reggie in this season that it wouldn't be that jarring to have a new actor.
Yeah, it's a little weird to have a second season considering the premise of the show.
