Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa has revealed to EW the show will be going full-blown supernatural in season two:There definitely will be a big genre element to Season 2. It won’t suddenly just be a coming-of-age drama. There will definitely be a very strong, bold genre statement.According to Aguirre-Sacas, Sabrina the Teenage Witch potentially joining the show’s universe is still very much on the table, presumably because of this upcoming “bold genre statement,” too:I feel like I can say two things: One is, we are constantly talking about Sabrina and how to update her character and introduce her to the TV audiences, whether it’s part of the Riverdale universe or it’s alongside the Riverdale universe. Hopefully sooner rather than later, there will be something to do with Sabrina. And the other thing I will say is that in the finale there is an appearance of a character from the Archie mythology that has a darker origin and backstory.I talk about it all the time because it’s my obsession. (Laughs) I love that character and obviously I also write The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina comic book. It’s sort of like, you know how there’s the Arrow-verse and then there’s Supergirl, which kind of exists in a different universe — they still cross over, but they’re in a different universe. I think there’s a lot of ways to skin the Sabrina cat, and I’m talking about them all the time basically to anyone who will listen.

Gritty Shirt Tales! They eat each other!
a) Who's gagging for a Shirt Tales reboot, b) of the twelve people who are, how badly do they want something that is nothing like Shirt Tales, c) why not make your own Killer Animals Wearing Shirts thing for all the people who would enjoy that and who aren't going to be drawn to the prospect of a Shirt Tales reboot because what even is Shirt Tales

It never ends:
Trying to explain everything that’s happened on Riverdale this season is an impossible task, but to sum it up: Hiram Lodge tried to blow up Archie with a bomb, which instead somehow gave the main cast a variety of superpowers and allowed a dark sorcerer named Percival Pickens to arrive in town from another dimension. Also, Cheryl Blossom became a witch (unrelated). Archie and the gang managed to murder Percival before he was able to take over the town—both time travel and Satan were involved—but not before he was able to redirect Bailey’s Comet (not a typo) to head directly at Riverdale. This is a lot, and I’ve barely scratched the surface of what’s happened in season six, and I won’t even get into how the lance that pierced the side of Jesus while he was on the cross ended up in a Riverdale pawn shop.

i really enjoyed riverdale s1, but season 2 was too long and uneven-seeming so i kinda just abandoned the show until my friend convinced me to watch season 7 because it's heavily bisexual (it is, for a cw show), so then i came up with the unbelievably stupid idea of watching the seasons in reverse. i'm in 5 right now. this show fucking sucks. i love it
