The CW Renews "Riverdale" for Season 2

March 7, 2017

The CW has handed out an early renewal to "Riverdale", TVGuide.com has learned.

"Riverdale" has done OK for The CW, posting a 0.8 rating and 2 million viewers in Live+7 day numbers. While those aren't terribly exciting stats, they're better than The CW's other new shows this season, "No Tomorrow" and "Frequency", both of which are expected to be canceled.

The series has also generated a passionate fan base and positive reviews from critics, and is streaming well (a figure that doesn't show up in standard ratings). That all adds up to a big thumbs up from The CW, which welcomes programming that isn't just about superheroes (even though Riverdale shares the commonality of being inspired by comics).

"Riverdale" is a reimagining of the Archie comics as a noir-inspired murder mystery. It stars KJ Apa, Lili Reinhart, Camila Mendes and Cole Sprouse.

April 2, 2018

The CW has given an early renewal to the bulk of its lineup, picking up all returning series on its fall schedule for the 2018-19 season.

“As The CW expands to a six-night, Sunday-through-Friday schedule next season, we are proud to have such a deep bench of great returning series for 2018-19. By picking these ten series up for next season, we have a terrific selection of programming to choose from when we set our fall schedule in May, with more still to come,” said The CW president Mark Pedowitz.

“And I’m especially happy that we’ll continue to work with the incredibly talented casts, producers, and writers who create the series our fans are so passionate about.”

Sophomore success "Riverdale" was picked up for Season 3.
