Critics' reviews

"That 'Riverdale' is contradictory is part of its charm (...) Although I can list questions I don't need answers to and relationships I'm not invested in, 'Riverdale' is all-in on its gimmick, and I can admire that."

Daniel Fienberg: The Hollywood Reporter
"'Riverdale', the CW’s new teen drama based on the 'Archie' comics, is an eerie and offbeat take on the high school mythos--both addictive and confusing in equal parts."

Sonia Saraiya: Variety
"If the tone is not yet consistent, the aesthetic is, a strong sign that 'Riverdale' knows what it wants to be. The terrific art direction warps the bubble-gum iconography into something haunting and lurid."

James Poniewozik: The New York Times
"A darker, more realistic 'Archie' universe (...) This is the best young adult cast for any drama in years."

Mark Perigard: Boston Herald
"A twisted but often satisfying alternative spin on the Archieverse."

Hank Stuever: The Washington Post
