'Katy Keene' Episode 8: Will Josie and the Pussycats be back? Fans eager to see band in 'Riverdale' spinoff
Spoilers for 'Katy Keene' Season 1 Episode 8 'Chapter Eight: It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding)'
'Katy Keene' had long brought in the dream of Josie and The Pussycats when they starred Josie McCoy (Ashleigh Murray) in the show and she low-key made her exit from 'Riverdale.' With her entrance in 'Riverdale's' spinoff, 'Katy Keene' she's had umpteen battles to make her career as a singer in New York come true and this episode titled, 'Chapter Eight: It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding)' may have gotten her closer. Fans were ecstatic about the possibility of seeing Josie and The Pussycats coming to 'Katy Keene'.
"Could it be... a Josie and the Pussycats revival?! #KatyKeene," tweeted the official account from Archie Comics. God, we hope so, especially since how the band disbanded in 'Riverdale'! "OH. MY. GOD. We’re getting a new iteration of Josie & the Pussycats?! I’m screaming!!! #KatyKeene," tweeted the official writer's room Twitter account for @CWKatyKeene. "I was wondering how they were going to reconcile the Pussycats thing... #KatyKeene," tweeted another fan, posing an important question.
While the episode was enough to get fans develop their own theories, the official accounts of the show and their writers did a lot to help escalate the excitement. "If they bring the Pussycats back I will forever Stan! #KatyKeene," tweeted a fan. It seems that fans, just like we were, were waiting for this possible revival for quite a while as this fan tweeted, "ARE WE GETTING JOSIE AND THE PUSSYCATS ON #KATYKEENE??????? Oh my god please."
If you're a 'Riverdale' fan, you would remember that Josie was set on pursuing a solo career. She was confronted by the other Pussycats, Melody Valentine (Asha Bromfield), and Valerie Brown (Hayley Law) who broke away hurt by her decision. This lead to Veronica Lodge reforming the Pussycats and taking over as the lead singer. Looks like, we might get back the band from Riverdale High but we have to wait and watch who the other two Pussycats will be in this NYC dreams-comes-true series. Who would they cast as the Pussycats, will Bromfield and Law come back to reprise their roles?
'Katy Keene' airs Thursdays at 8 pm EST on The CW.
