Riverdale is based on the Archie Comics. The show takes its name from the fictional town of Riverdale, which is the setting of the Archie Comics. The characters from the comics, such as Archie Andrews, Betty Cooper, Veronica Lodge, Jughead Jones, and others, are featured in the show. However, the show's storyline and tone are quite different from the comics, with the series taking a darker, more mysterious approach to the characters and their relationships.
The show was developed by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, who is also the showrunner and executive producer.
The series is set in the small town of Riverdale, where Archie Andrews (KJ Apa) and his friends Betty Cooper (Lili Reinhart), Veronica Lodge (Camila Mendes), and Jughead Jones (Cole Sprouse) navigate the complexities of high school life while also dealing with a series of dark and mysterious events that occur in their town.
The show features many of the classic Archie Comics characters, such as Archie's parents Fred (Luke Perry) and Mary Andrews (Molly Ringwald), and other familiar faces like Cheryl Blossom (Madelaine Petsch), Josie McCoy (Ashleigh Murray), and Kevin Keller (Casey Cott).
While the show takes inspiration from the Archie Comics, it differs from the source material in many ways. Riverdale is much darker and more dramatic than the light-hearted comics, and features a number of complex and sometimes controversial storylines, including murder mysteries, secret societies, and romantic entanglements. The show has been praised for its stylish production design, strong performances, and inventive storytelling, and has become a hit with audiences around the world.
It's available on Netflix and the current season is now available. I suggest you watch from the beginning if you have never watched an episode.
