Official Synopsis below:

A subversive take on Archie and his friends, exploring small town life, the darkness and weirdness bubbling beneath Riverdale's wholesome facade.

The Outsiders



The Outsiders episode looks pretty explosive as it delves into the beef between the Blooms and Coopers.  It also tackles Jughead's dad and him being the leader of the Southside Serpents.

I love Smurfvlogs thoughts on Riverdale and his breakdown of both the drama and mystery angles of the show.  Here are his thoughts on the upcoming Outsiders Episode and on Archie getting punched in the noggin.

Riverdale review:
Riverdale is a new show based off of Archie Comics but with a twist.  We are happy that our guest blogger Sarah Loves Zombies was able to watch the show and give us her take.


I wasn’t even going to watch. Now hear me out, I love silly YA probably more than most people, but I didn’t need an overly sappy cheerleader and football star story in my life. I had just finished the only season of No Tomorrow that may ever happen and I was re-inspired to take on the world, hopefully leaving my suburban lifestyle behind (in 10years, I’m a wishful thinker but I’ve got a plan too). So why the heck was I going to start a typical YA?

The Archie comics were something I occasionally picked up in my childhood. Something light, and fun to fill the time in between school and friends and my family’s crazy weekend adventures. This show is anything but. It starts with the death of a teenage boy, a mystery that sets the tone for the entire show – deep, interesting and narrated by Jughead – who isn’t exactly the lighthearted prankster I remembered.





In fact, most of the characters ride the line between being the stereotypes that filled the OG comics and being something completely different than I expected. There is quite a bit of great acting, and after the first episode I’m surprisingly addicted. Yes, there are the typical storylines that you can see a mile away (the death might have been murder, GASP!). But there is reflection in that as well – that things are very different in Riverdale than they have been before.

My hope is that we make it through an entire season with the same decent acting and storytelling. I’ve been disappointed midseason before, but I genuinely think this show is worth a shot.
