Riverdale
To save the future, they must survive the past.
Created by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa
On The CW
A melodramatic, increasingly surreal teen drama that pairs small-town murder mysteries with escalating supernatural and absurdist elements, sustained across 137 episodes of serialized chaos.
Set in the present, the series offers a bold, subversive take on Archie, Betty, Veronica and their friends, exploring the surreality of small-town life, the darkness and weirdness bubbling beneath Riverdale’s wholesome facade.
