The producers of this hit almost network hit have told one of the lead actresses they need to lose weight or be replaced. In another show, this would be unlikely, but in this show, anything seemingly can happen.
Riverdale, The Flash and Supernatural are the most watched CW shows. Riverdale is talked about on entertainment blogs more than the other two and this season was completely screwed up stories.
If you hired a thin actor and then they tubbed up I think it's reasonable to ask them to go back to normal, or at least put down the cake and work out occasionally.
just off the top of my head, I can name 3 actors who gained weight during the run of a show without (seemingly) any repercussions: james spader (boston Legal), the guy on Castle (Nathan something?) and the guy on Psyche. all 3 started out cute and got fatter and fatter.
Digging your comments. James Spader was so hot and now he’s a big dude.He lived in my neighborhood in NYC and was always so cute. Did his lip bite all the time.Got booked for Boston Legal. Super excited to see Spader had not seen him in years. Could not believe how big he got! I think they replaced a girl on that show for not being thin enough. So fucked.
I agree Emmie the musicals are way too cringe. And they all look thin already damn what do they want the girl from Stranger Things? At some point you're not even listening to the actress only looking at how gaunt she is
James Spader and Nathan Fillion got sexier with weight gain. They look real and manly. Don't like the beefcake look on men, they look like caricatures.

ReplyDeleteRiverdale?
ReplyDeleteHas to be Riverdale because they screwed it up.
ReplyDeleteBut isn’t the Arekw the one with all the behind the scenes craziness with costars (Amell,Emily BR?) not sure if it’s still a hit though....
DeleteIn reality they likely need to gain about 20 pounds
ReplyDeleteAgree

ReplyDeleteJeez, if they're not extorting sex then they're fat shaming their actresses, producers have got to be the biggest scumbags in town.
ReplyDeleteYounger (Hilary Duff)
ReplyDeleteHannah, almost network is CW. I think this is Riverdale. They have done it before.
ReplyDeleteLose the weight or go to junior college and get a regular job.

ReplyDelete@ Sunkist. She’s huuuge!
ReplyDeleteRiverdale, since they look healthy.
ReplyDeleteThis could and does happen on just about ANY show where the character is supposed to be sexy/desirable.
ReplyDeleteRiverdale used to be my guilty pleasure, but this season has become completely unwatchable. I always cringe when they try to do musical bits too.
ReplyDeleteBut none of the leading actresses need to lose weight. That’s awful.

ReplyDeletePoor Lili.

ReplyDeleteThey are actually spinning off Riverdales Josie to do a full show where everyweek is a musical with lucy hale. that is keeping cringe at 100.
