DVD Pick: Riverdale Season One

I have decided to give Riverdale a second chance and it didn't hurt that I found the DVD on sale. The first time I tried to watch the show, when it first aired on The CW, I really couldn't connect with it. I know a lot of my disinterest was with how the characters were changed and the dark tone of the show. I'm used to reading the Archie Comics books where the characters and the stories are very light-hearted and humorous and I was used to that interpretation. But since I'm a big Archie Comics fan I wanted to give Riverdale another chance maybe this time it will be easier to enjoy the show.

Is there a show you gave a second chance?


Riverdale Season One

Description:

As the school year begins, Riverdale's residents are reeling from the news of golden boy Jason Blossom's shocking death -- an event that reveals many secrets bubbling just beneath the surface of this once-idyllic town. All-American teen Archie Andrews grapples with whether to come forward with scandalous information about the day Jason disappeared. Girl-Next-Door Betty Cooper carries a hopeless torch for Archie, while Fallen-From-Grace socialite Veronica Lodge instantly sparks with him. Cheryl Blossom reacts to the death of her twin brother by tightening her grip on the River Vixens, while Neo-Beatnik Jughead Jones sits in a booth at Pop's Chock'lit Shoppe, trying to make sense of his darkening town. Riverdale puts a subversive spin on the iconic world of Archie Comics in 13 sexy, smart and mysterious episodes.
