Riverdale creator, writer, and executive producer Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa is doing his part to help fans pass the time at home with a little fun speculation over how the gang would handle our current reality. Contributing to a line-up of shows getting the "What If…?" treatment from their respective writers, showrunners, etc., Aguirre-Sacasa breaks down why […]
Yes, "Queen Cheryl" (Madelaine Petsch) sums up this week's episode of The CW's Riverdale nicely – as we see the bitter end of the "Dead Jughead" near-season long storyline: "Jughead Jones is alive. Somehow, I'm not surprised." In case you're new around here, there are MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD! ahead – blah blah blah. You should […]
On the same day that the World Health Organization declared it a pandemic, The CW's Riverdale announced that it is shutting down its Vancouver production on the current season after a member of the team came into contact with an individual who tested positive for the coronavirus and "is currently receiving medical evaluation." Stating that […]
Hello again, fellow mystery fans. It's almost time to venture back into our favorite city of teenage scandal: the fourth season of The CW's Riverdale. But, before this week's episode airs, we have a sneak preview of what to expect. This week's installment of the 'Dale promises a "classic locked room mystery" – and Jughead […]
Thank you for coming, Riverdale friends, at this, our time of great despair. No, not Jughead's (Cole Sprouse) funeral…well, kind of. Naturally, the town is gutted and still reeling from the tragedy of two weeks ago. No idea what "tragedy" I'm talking about? No, it's not Archie's (KJ Apa) hopelessly bushy eyebrows that don't match […]
As if the "Dead Jughead" storyline during the fourth season of The CW's Riverdale wasn't already having our brain gears grinding about a Riverdale/Chilling Adventures of Sabrina crossover (and an Afterlife with Archie storyline season), executive producer Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa is dialing up the drama before tonight's "Chapter Seventy-Two: To Die For". Now we already know that Betty (Lili […]
With only a handful of episodes left for this season of The CW's Riverdale, we're getting really curious how they're going to have Skeet Ulrich (F.P. Jones) and Marisol Nichols (Hermione Lodge) exit the series – but we're going back to sounding like a broken record when we tell you that we're absolutely still all about […]
Sorry if it feels like I've gone off the grid this week, this week's episode of The CW's Riverdale had me celebrating the "Dead Jughead" aftermath a little too much, my friends. Oh, what's that? You're not up-to-date on what's going on with the storyline? Go get caught up on "The 'Dale" because there are […]
Normally, news that Riverdale mainstays Skeet Ulrich (F.P. Jones) and Marisol Nichols (Hermione Lodge) are set to leave the series after this season would be more than enough to overshadow what's happening on-screen. Throw in a social media-posted image of Kiernan Shipka, KJ Apa, and Casey Cott fueling (at least our) speculation of a very […]
Looks like if that Riverdale crossover with Chilling Adventures of Sabrina is going to happen next season (something we posted about earlier today), it will happen without Skeet Ulrich's F.P. Jones and Marisol Nichols' Hermione Lodge. Both actors will not be returning to the popular CW series for its fifth season, with Ulrich issuing the following […]
When it comes to the possibility of a Riverdale/Chilling Adventures of Sabrina crossover (a real one, not like the ones we cover below), we're not sure anyone would be as excited about it becoming a reality as our own Riverdale reviewer Eden Arnold. She's been pushing the theory that a visit from Sabrina Spellman (Kiernan […]
Happy Ides of March, you bloodsucking vampires! This week's episode of The CW's Riverdale is full of wacky shenanigans – including – drumroll, please – the death of one Jughead Jones! It's about time they finally got to that – so pull up a chair, grab a party hat and red solo cup full of […]
Now having received the official Riverdale blessing via a visit from Veronica (Camila Mendes), Lucy Hale's Katy Keene introduced us to her new NYC life – and those who will end up loving her and helping her (and hindering her) along the way – in last week's The CW series opener. Now the fun really […]
First off, hats off to Bleeding Cool's resident Riverdale expert Eden Arnold for her weekly review-recap-psychoanalysis of all the twisted twists-n-turns going on in the lives of Archie (KJ Apa), Jughead (Cole Sprouse), Veronica (Camila Mendes), Betty (Lili Reinhart), Cheryl (Madelaine Petsch), and the other residents of The CW series. Last week (check out our […]
Such a promising chapter number of The CW's Riverdale this week…but sadly, it's just shenanigans as usual (more or less) here in the 'Dale. Do I need to tickle and blackmail you or do you know by now there are MAJOR SPOILERS ahead? Oh, you know? Awesome! In that case, we'll leave all that weird […]
As Bleeding Cool's resident Riverdale expert Eden Arnold continues cutting her way through the underbrush of the town's insanity for another week's worth of reviewing (check out her review of "Chapter Sixty-Eight: Quiz Show" here), the series itself is going through a new round of "buzz-worthiness". Renewed for a fifth season, Riverdale sees spinoff series […]
This week's episode of The CW's Riverdale sure does live up to the name of the episode – taken from the 1994 film Quiz Show, of course. If you're familiar with the film, you already know the twist going into the episode. But everything is an homage to the film – guess somebody's a fan. […]

The world of Sabrina Spellman (Kiernan Shipka) has gotten a whole lot hotter now that Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa's Chilling Adventures of Sabrina has returned to Netflix for Season/Part 3. At the end of CAOS Part 2, Nicholas (Gavin Leatherwood) found himself a vessel for the Dark Lord and banished to the depths of Hell. Nicholas may be […]
