Movies that suck. Music that rocks. Books and Games, it's all right here.

Riverdale

Post by Mr Wallstreet »

This a new show on the CW based off the Archie comics and stars pretty much all the charectors from the Archie comics. However, unlike the bulk of Archie comics, it's not at all "clean cut, wholesome humor". The show is very dark and nothing at all like ththis comics. The town is full of dirty secrets and charectors with morally ambiguous agendas all their own. Aside from names and likenesses, you wouldn't known you were watching a show based on Archie comics.

I'm 5 episodes in so I won't spoil everything but is anyone else watching?

No.
Is it any good, though?

I very much enjoyed the first season. Like he said, very dark, filled with secrets and very much a teen drama. It reminded me a lot of Veronica Mars as the entire first season revolves around finding out who murdered another teenager in town. I enjoyed it and I'm looking forward to the next season.
