So there is a big rumor going around that Holly Marie Combs is joining the show next season as Jughead's mother, anyone hear anymore about this?

First I've heard of it. However, if it's true, perhaps Holly will stop bitching about the Charmed reboot.
Interestingly, this will put Holly in the same city as the Charmed reboot (Vancouver). Of course, all the CW shows are filmed in Vancouver.

It would be pretty interesting because if she became a prominent Riverdale character then she would have to attend events and have schedules where she will probably come face to face with the new sisters. I'm surprised the CW is even letting any of their showrunners hire her after her constant slamming of one of their shows. Having said that, despite my personal issues with Holly, she IS a good actress, so I can't blame them for wanting to utilize her talent.

Wow very interesting. Too bad it can't be Kim Rhodes who previously played Coles mother in a tv series he did as a kid. The casting would be perfect. I know fans want this. Plus Kim already looks more biker type than Holly. Since Jughead is in the Serpents. But maybe she is different than ehat we presume the mother would be like.
This role might be very different for Holly. We complain and say Holly ain't getting much work. But thid might mean Holly cant focus on a new job and quit bitching about the reboot.
I hope she gets the role so she can spend more time acting than twitter complaining lol

You would think that Holly would be persona non gratta at the CW, considering her tweets against the Charmed reboot. As Rosanne Barr found out, one wrong tweet can end you in Hollywood.
And she tells Jug that he has a twin brother then he never knew about, played by Cole's brother, Dylan, of course!

Yeah Kim Rhodes would be fantastic. I somewhat don't want Holly on anytime soon. I guess I can separate character from actress. But she has annoyed me lately with her bashing of the reboot. I'm surprised they want to hire her.
Then again Holly has been rumored to be on other shows and they just turn out to be rumors. We'll see.

As I said, I'm surprised that the CW would even consider hiring her for any of their shows.
Would you hire someone for one of your shows, if this same person was constantly trashing a show that you have high hopes for?

Me too. But maybe Holly doesn't get the part. We'll see.

As I said, this is strange. One would expect Holly to be persona non gratta as far as the CW is concerned.
If Alyssa wasn't involved with another series, I would suggest her for the part.

Alyssa would be great. Excited to see who they do cast officially.

I'm surprised we haven't seen Jug's mom yet. This show has been on for more than a year now.

Me too. Granted she doesn't live in Riverdale and is elsewhere. I wonder if the show will explain why she left.
Again I don't think Holly is right for the part. Can she fill the role of a former Serpents biker lady well. I still think not. Maybe I'm wrong.

Oh, I didn't know that. My mindset is on the comics, where separation and divorce don't exist.
I wonder what long time Archie readers think of this show? As I said, this is like something David Lynch dreamed up, with the Archie characters shoehorned in.
I remember hearing rumours that they wanted to do a show like this with Charlie Brown and the Peanuts gang, but the estate of Charles M. Schulz quickly vetoed that.

That's okay. My mindset on comics can get fuzzy at times too.
I remember those rumors too.

Yeah, I'm glad that Peanuts thing didn't happen. Mr. Schultz was smart to make sue that his creation would be protected, when he was no longer with us.
