Tonight at 8p, Riverdale says goodbye to Luke Perry who passed away in March from a stroke. They wanted to give him a proper sendoff and they do.
Archie (KJ Apa) gets a phone call that his father was killed in another town. He runs home to his mom and the funeral director tells them that they cannot pick him up until July 5th because of the holiday on the next day and the parade in Riverdale.
Archie cannot wait that long, so he drives up there with Veronica (Camila Mendes), Betty (Lili Reinhart) and Jughead (Cole Sprouse) to pick his dad up. When they get there, they go to the place where his dad died and he meets the woman who was with him at the time of his death. Then he confronts the person who was also there and learns something about himself.
Now, it is time for him to go home and that is when you need to get the tissues. I cried as much then as when I heard Perry passed away. Riverdale did the proper tribute for a friend to them and us.

Then at 9p, Nancy Drew is back on our TVs and she has another mystery to solve.
Nancy Drew (Kennedy McMann) had a normal life until her mom died and then she gave up on school. Because of that, she did not apply to college and works as a waitress in her hometown where she lives with her dad (Scott Wolf). There she works with an old classmate George (Leah Lewis), who doesn’t like her. Bess (Maddison Jaizani) who is taking a gap gear in their sleepy town. She is also dating Nick (Tunji Kasim) who has a criminal past.
One night while they are working, a socialite is killed in their small town outside the diner and they are all suspects. Since Nancy has solved a crime before, she thinks she can solve this case too. However, the police don’t want her help.
Will she be able to solve the murder? We will have to tune in every week to find out?
Before Ryan Eggold was clean-shaven on New Amsterdam, he was a hairy werewolf on Out of Jimmy’s Head. It is hard to recognize the 23-year-old in that 2007 episode.
Yesterday when he was on Late Night, he talked about this role. He told Seth Meyers that after spending four years getting a degree in theater and doing this part, he wondered, “Is this the life I signed up for? This is a disaster. This is a horrible choice.” However, it all paid off in the end. Without this role, he might never have done 90210. Which circles us back.
James Lee Curtis shared this photo with us today and I think we can all agree that she has seen better days. Not only has she seen them, so has Lauri Strode.
I bring that up because she is back filming another Halloween movie. When the last movie left off, she and her brother Michael Myers had another one of their fights. Which is why she looks so beat up. When your brother is a psychotic serial killer and it is your mission to take him down, you are going to like crap the next day.
While Strode will be all grumpy for obvious reasons, Curtis can still manage to put a smile on her face.
