Why is Riverdale so bleak?

>Archie is completely paranoid
>Jughead is starting out a life of crime'
>Betty is mentally ill
>Cheryl is an actual psychopath
>Reggie is the school drug dealer
>Veronica is going to get fat again

For the general question of controlling the weight of actors, surely, producers can tell actors to lose weight if they want and expect to get it, right? Losing weight is so easy, that if my career depended on it in the slightest, I could lose it extremely easily, and just assume that if somebody gains weight in a series, it it's intentional, or has no impact whatsoever.

But muh dick bix nood muhfuca

The actresses gain weight over the filming of each season because they are overworked and binge eat bad food at night.

why is the marketing for cw shit so obvious?

>thinking anyone actually wants to market on Sup Forums

>Reggie is the school drug dealer
this is so fucking weird
I know they had to change the actor, but last season he was just an asshole jock who became captain of the football team, why is he suddenly dealing fucking drugs?

>tfw have to stay out of Riverdale threads until the episodes on are netflix

I'll miss my betty gf

Why not just download them right after they air?

At least he is more of a prankster like the comics

I like his "playful asshole" persona more than douchebag jock that Ross Butler played

>going to
she's already a chunky monkey

she lost some weight inbetween seasons

because I don't want to download anything and prefer to binge watch

go on the CW website and watch them there

Having seen this post you have downloaded it.

They’re definitely laying the edginess on pretty thick this season. Riverdale’s closest creative inspiration, Twin Peaks, had more whimsy than this show and featured incestuous rape and extradimensional manifestations of pure evil. I was hoping they wouldn’t steer so hard into it but with this “death every episode” thing, there’s almost no levity at all in the episodes shown so far. It reminds me of Scream Queens a lil bit. First season had a more central plot that we circled around until it came together in the finale, the second season was just gimmicky cliffhanger deaths and flat or nonexistent humor.

Here’s hoping they can save it unlike SQ, but so far this season has been a little underwhelming.

The reason it's "so bleak" is the writers have given nothing for the adults to do, so all the hang ups and issues and "dark stories" will be felt by the teenage characters and the adults will act like petty teenagers, in order to appeal to teenagers that think they're adults.
