Welcome back to YA Onscreen, to where I have returned from the wilds of San Diego Comic-Con with LOTS of scoop for you. Let's hop to!
Specifically relevant to FYA interests:
I saw Greg Berlanti's Riverdale pilot and went BANANAS for it. Here's my review, in which I point out all of the Dawson's Creek (meets Twin Peaks) similarities and FYA commenter Nicola shared this AMAZING infographic from a 1998 TV Guide:
The Supernatural panel is always my favorite part of SDCC every year, and here are the best jokes (and a little bit of news) from this year's panel.
