Pop Culture and Art

“Riverdale” is a TV show based off of the characters from the “Archie Comics,” and uses most of the same characters from the comic series. The first season is about the murder of Jason Blossom, Cheryl’s twin brother and Betty, Archie, Jughead, and Veronica try to uncover the murderer. Suspicion bombards Cheryl, and the blame slowly starts to fall on other citizens in the town.

This first season is good for anyone who loves a good melodramatic mystery. In each episode, something new is added to the story, and it’s pretty entertaining. If you liked “Riverdale,” you might also like “13 Reasons Why,” “Gossip Girl,” or “Pretty Little Liars.”

“Riverdale” can be streamed this week on Netflix or Hulu./ Raychel Roylance
