The Jimmy Fallon ‘Peanuts’ and ‘Riverdale’ Mashup Is Simply Perfection
What do you get when you mix brooding teenagers with the imagination of Charles Schulz? Jimmy Fallon’s epic Peanuts and Riverdale mashup.
On last night’s The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, the titular host donned a yellow letterman jacket and reimagined the CW’s teen drama with Peanuts characters at its center.
In Fallon’s version, Charlie Brown has a lot more hair, Schroder is basically Andy Warhol and Charlie is having an affair with the womp-womp-womp voice teacher. When Linus van Pelt is found dead in the Pumpkin Patch, the Peanuts gang must track down the killer before getting their groove on at their fall formal where—spoiler alert—the real Riverdale crew—K.J. Apa, Lili Reinhart, Camila Mendes, Madelaine Petsch and Cole Sprouse— make a surprise appearance.
Good grief, we could watch a full season of this.
