I'm just waiting for this Josie and the Pussycats group on the 1st Riverdale episode to bust out into a Destiny's Child song like Bootylicious.

I'm waiting for them to bust out some TLC songs.

Looking pretty good here, I honestly think so. 

Teen Beach 2 is on now & the kid who playing Reggie was in scene. He is cute.

The gratuitous race swapping is ... a bit annoying, but casting the one with the palest complexion as Valerie and the (is it just me?) least attractive one as Melody is just rubbing fans noses in it ... and given that, if they ever want to do the Archie/Valerie thing now then we really have an excuse to call them on racism ...

Still on the fence with this show, with Jason killed off so soon and other characters race-lifted for no reason. A brown-eyed Cheryl would be the deal breaker, but if they give Cheryl's actress green contacts, I'll give the show a chance.

Reggie's actor is a questionable choice, but not because he's Asian. His jaw is shaped more like Archie's jaw than Reggie's jaw.

Daren is that you? Someone made this same comment on the old forum about Cheryl's green eyes.

No I was the one saying they should get a blue eyed actress for Betty.


Sorry SnowflakeNetwork but I doubt they'll make Cheryl's eyes green, those contacts would lead to problems because they hurt like hell and they're already disregarding physical canon for half the other characters.

She can wear contacts.

Anyone knows if the cast members had read an Archie comic before they were cast. Have they mentioned anything about it? just curious.

They are gonna be a hip hop group

Are you serious?!

This time I was just joking. But the way things are going it wouldn't surprise me if they did  turn them into a hip hop act.

I've heard about this but haven't payed it much attention because I don't watch that much television anyway and I most likely won't watch this either. If I do end up catching a show hear and there  it will be so sporadic I won't know what's going on in the show anyway.

Cole Sprouse (Jughead) is a big comic fan (anime and manga fan as well.) Not sure about any of the other cast though.

Cole Sprouse from Disney's Suite Life shows seems like a pretty good actor. He was pretty young when he started Suite Life so I don't know how he will do with the Jughead character.

Big comic fan but is he an Archie comics fan?

I don't know if he is a fan of it, but I bet he read some since he got the part of Jughead.

As an American comics fan (and a part of American pop culture) it's hard not to be aware of Archie comics and Jughead in particular, but actually reading them is a lot less likely (and might be a mark against actors for roles in the show, given the changes).
