Season 3 Review:
Riverdale has never known quite what to do with its milquetoast hero (other than have him be shirtless as often as possible) and this storyline does not appear to be remedying that--unless, as was mentioned, they’re ultimately getting rid of him. ... At least the show has Betty and Jughead around to be awesome together. They are definitely worth tuning in for, and there is potential for a few other storylines to blossom into some strong material as well.

Season 1 Review:
It boldly commits to its campy, overcast aesthetic--and it’s here I’ll note that I’m not naturally inclined toward teen melodrama, but can be drawn in if the execution’s great enough (like The O.C., or Everwood, whose creator Greg Berlanti is an executive producer here)--while struggling at times to turn its characters from archetypes into individuals.

Season 1 Review:
This perversely compelling mystery melodrama has echoes of Twin Peaks and even 90210. [16-29 Jan 2017, p.17]
Season 1 Review:
Everyone, it seems, has a secret in Riverdale, and in the first four episodes of the series, some of those secrets are too conveniently revealed as new ones are loaded into the script to keep the momentum going. There’s minimal credibility here, but that doesn’t torpedo the show.
