Riverdale Greg Berlanti's Riverdale - Archie Comics-Based Drama on CW

I still hope he has a massive food issue.

 

[Sawyer]

"Issue"? lol please. His only food issue is that he doesn't have enough of it.

 

[Sawyer]

Ugh, waiting till midseason is not a good look CW!

I could live with midseason, even if I'm not happy about it. Midseason debut worked out well enough for The 100 and iZombie.

What I do think is bulls*** is scamming us out of a trailer, though the actress that plays Betty said on Twitter that they're recutting the trailer for a wide audience, rather than giving us the same one they dropped at the Upfronts. Hopefully that comes sooner rather than later.

I wonder if it just means a scene of Betty and Veronica in bikinis or if somebody thought this was too similar to One Tree Hill.

 

[Sawyer]

Looks on Twitter like Nichole Beattie, who wrote for the third and fourth seasons of TWD, is part of the writing staff.

Also seen quite a bit of good response from those who have been able to watch the pilot, making me ever so slightly more furious that it won't be on in the fall.

 

[Sawyer]

Still waiting for that f***ing trailer tho.

Really trying to grasp the logic of not releasing a goddamn trailer at this point. None for upfronts? Whatever. But it's Comic-Con. Do something to make the people at home give a s***.

 

[Gee]

Cool story, now how about a f***ing trailer?

It's not likee this show is debuting in September this is a mid season show and from what I know of the cw they hardly release mid season trailers this early.

 

[Sawyer]

They've done midseason trailers before, so they really could have put on out with the other fall shows in May, but it was extra dumb not to do one for Comic Con. Reviews of the pilot hit Twitter right and left, but who gives a rat's ass if you haven't seen as much as a frame of footage?

Barb from Stranger Things has been cast as Ethel Muggs. Robin Givens (former Mrs. Mike Tyson) is Riverdale's Mayor/Josie's mom.

It seems like at some point in time the thread title should have been changed to:

OMG...

Figured this was coming, but am glad it's official...

Archie Announces Riverdale Tie-In Comic

“The chance to explore the world of Riverdale in a comic book — the form that first introduced the world to Archie, the love triangle, his hometown — was something we couldn’t pass up,” Aguirre-Sacasa said with regard to the announcement. “Believe me, these stories matter. If you’re a fan of the show, you’ll find that the comics add another layer of conflict and drama. If you’re an Archie Comics fan, this series will serve as a great set of standalone stories in the universe of the TV series. We — myself and the show’s writers — are treating the comics with the same care and attention to detail fans will see on the screen as we weave one, large unforgettable narrative.”

 

[Slick]

Nice. Looking forward to the show and the comic.
