VIDEO : Riverdale QUADRUPLES In Teen Viewers

QuadruplesRiverdale, The CW's teen noir about those once-wholesome Archie comics characters, managed a feat no other returning series has accomplished this season: Live ratings for its Oct. 11 sophomore premiere grew an unprecedented 60 percent from its launch nine months earlier. It's the first ironclad evidence of a linear windfall that broadcasters have hoped for since studios started making deals to put current series on streamers (Netflix, Amazon and Hulu) for the off-season.
