Chicago P.D. lost a big member of their department when Sophia Bush abruptly left the show in May.

A look-back at the previous attempts to bring Archie to TV before they got it right with Riverdale...
When Riverdale premieres on the CW on January 26th, it will mark a milestone for Archie Comics - the first time in the company's 75-year history that its characters will truly shine on television. A mix of gleefully ridiculous kitsch with standout performances and some truly smart writing, the series is poised to be 2017's breakout TV hit.

That said, it took a while for Archie to get to this point. There have been many attempts to bring Archie and his friends to TV before, but these all suffered for either being shoddily animated (the various 1960s cartoons), misguided (1990's Archie: To Riverdale and Back Again), or just plain, um, weird (the X-Files cash-in Archie's Weird Mysteries...

The non-profit centers on spreading the word about the benefits of Transcendental Meditation. Sounds like a laugh riot, right? Actually, everyone fared pretty well... "David Lynch... the man who made me afraid of hallways." Musician Kevin Drew, as an introduction "Live abortions! Raise your hand if you've had an abortion... or you can just slap me five when you leave." Amy Poehler "I love rap music but I despise poetry." Chris Parnell, prior to rapping "The Ballad of the Skeletons" with Amy Poehler "This should go for two or three hours. Let's round it up to six... Follow your inner moonlight; don't hide the madness.

Toronto politics have historically never been of much interest to Torontonians let alone the rest of the world. But Mayor Rob Ford's ongoing crack scandal has enraptured even the self-obsessed American media, ranging from that pretentious editorial in the New Yorker to segments on NBC's “The Today Show” to late-night punchlines from Jon Stewart, Jay Leno and Jimmy Kimmel.
But not everyone is laughing that Rob Ford has become the sweaty (alleged crack-smoking) face of Toronto.
“It's not funny, it's embarrassing,” says Kevin Drew, singer and co-founder of Broken Social Scene, an expansive musical collective that names Feist and members of Stars and Metric among its crew and during the 2000s became Toronto’s musical ambassadors to the world. “I mean, where are our leaders? It's like there's a giant baby running the city.”
“When I was in my twenties, I might as well have tattooed Toronto on my forehead,...
