Description: While navigating the troubled waters of romance, school and family, Archie (K.J. Apa) and his gang become entangled in dark Riverdale mysteries.
Review: Riverdale is a simple town, a typical American town. But when teenager Jason Blossom is found murdered, the whole town turns upside down. Who did it and why?
“Riverdale” is your typical teen show. A bunch of teens, with your stereotypes, growing up in a small town. Teen drama, I love it. But there is some mystery and crime drama added to the mix. Which makes it a bit different.
The actors are fairly unknown. Cole Sprouse might be a familiar face, who used to shine in “The Suite Life of Zack and Cody” with his twin brother. His role of Jughead Jones is easily my favorite character of the show so far. But as I am a thirty-something woman, my heart skipped a beat when I saw Luke Perry! He was one of my crushes in my teen years. I also love Lili Reinhart, as the ‘Nancy Drew’ of Riverdale, playing Betty Cooper.
“Riverdale” is a perfect binge-watch show. After each episode, you just can’t wait to watch the next. When the body of Jason Blossom is found, the series turns into a whodunit and I love those. You start to tag along with the characters in their search for Jason’s killer.
I’m glad this season didn’t have that many episodes and it wraps up a lot of the answers at the end. So that it’s time for another mystery. Which it does. It ends with a tragic happening, which will obviously set the second season.
The series isn’t original. This type of story has been done so many times. But it’s really enjoyable and easy to watch.
