Riverdale

Here’s everything you need to know (or remember) before Riverdale Season 2 premieres this week.

We don’t often think about the hours TV stars put into our favorite shows, but the strain very nearly cost us Riverdale star K.J. Apa. The actor endured a recent off-set car-crash unharmed, though production is now under scrutiny for over-working its cast.

The success of sexy CW Archie reboot Riverdale all-but-guaranteed spinoffs, and Sabrina the Teenage Witch had to be at the top of that list. Well, get ready for The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, as a horror-themed spinoff is officially in development.

Just when you thought the end of Game of Thrones Season 7 might cut you a break from must-see shows, in swoops fall TV with dozens upon dozens of new and returning TV series; enough to drive your DVR to self-immolation. Join us for a sneak peek!

Anyone who knows Archie comics knows the Riverdale gang has met just about every other comic character, so might Riverdale itself follow suit? A new set photo from Season 2 of the CW hit seems to show Supergirl hanging out in Pop’s Chock’lit Shoppe, so what does it mean?

We don’t wish to alarm you, but you may see some DC superheroes at Comic-Con 2017. Not only have all the CW shows set their plans (including Black Lightning), but everyone from Young Justice to Krypton will be representing with panels and appearances. Get the full details!

Just when you thought network TV was on break for the summer, it’s time to start filling your calendar. The CW has declared its October premiere week, setting returns for Supergirl, Flash and the other DC dramas, along with Supernatural, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and two newbies.

Just as Arrow suits up for its final episodes of Season 5, the end is already here. The end for all CW shows, that is, as everyone from Supergirl to Jane The Virgin and those sexy murder-teens at Riverdale set season (or series) finale dates from May through June.

The CW’s Riverdale has been performing strongly enough in its inaugural episodes that The CW is considering a whole mess of Archie-related shows, so it shouldn’t surprise you that Riverdale itself will earn another round. Yes, the weird Twin Peaks-meets-malt shoppe vibe of Riverdale is happening again.

The success of Arrow has now preceded no less than four CW DC dramas, so might Archie follow suit after the rave reception of Riverdale? A new development deal with Archie Comics could see additional characters landing shows to complement the malt shop murder-mystery, if not additional superhero series.
