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 the[...]

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 (Cole Sprouse) returns to reveal his[...]

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 his[...]

Over in the NYC part of the Riverdale universe, Katy Keene (now that we just brought it up, it would be cool to see the cast from Chilling Adventures of Sabrina make a brief jump to the city for a crossover), this week's "Chapter Five: Song for a Winter's Night" finds Katy (Lucy Hale) stressing[...]

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 Reinhart),[...]

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[...]

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[...]

Having now shrugged off the whole "crossover/spinoff" tag, Lucy Hale's Katy Keene and the show named in her honor are wasting no time letting viewers know that it's its own show – thank you very much!

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?

Theo (Lachlan Watson) and the gang "got the band back together" to commit to protecting Greendale from evil alongside Sabrina – with Theo meeting a new love interest along the way (which is why both Leatherwood and Watson were promoted to series regulars for Parts 3 and 4)… and the road to Riverdale becoming much[...]
