The Archies? When I heard this show was coming to TV I thought the whole concept was ridiculous. There was no way I would watch it.
And then I was at the gym with nothing to watch while on the stair machine. Streaming videos is the only way I can do this type of workout. I thought, what the heck, Riverdale is on here, there had been a positive buzz, let me give it a whirl.
It barely took five minutes and I was 100% hooked.
Based on the characters from Archie Comics, Riverdale gives a subversive take on small-town life. Things aren’t always what you expect in Riverdale. As a new school year begins, the town is reeling from the tragic death of high school golden boy Jason Blossom. The summer’s events made all-American teen Archie Andrews realize that he wants to pursue a career in music, but his fractured friendship with Jughead Jones, and Josie McCoy’s focus on her own band leaves Archie without a mentor. Meanwhile, girl-next-door Betty Cooper is not ready to reveal her true feelings for Archie, and new student, Veronica Lodge, has an undeniable spark with Betty’s crush. And then there’s Cheryl Blossom, Riverdale’s queen bee, who stirs up trouble amongst Archie, Betty and Veronica. But is Cheryl hiding something about the mysterious death of her twin brother, Jason? Riverdale may look like a quiet, sleepy town, but there’s so much more to the story.
It’s racially diverse, there are gay characters, there is music, and in Episode Two I teared up when they started tp play Sugar, Sugar! The song from the original TV cartoon series, a record that I bought! And then the Pussycats did a cover of a Donna Summer song, and more:
Unlock the mystery and dive into small town secrets as Warner Bros. Home Entertainment releases Riverdale: The Complete First Season on DVD on August 15, 2017.
