Riverdale is about high schoolers trapped in a town where everyone is either a serial killer or a gothic novel protagonist. The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina is about witchcraft, hell, and scaring boys. Katy Keene, the newest addition to the Archieverse, seems a little bit lighter.

The first trailer introduces Katy as an aspiring fashion designer living in New York who gets by with a little help from her friends — and her friends include Riverdale's own Josie, finally pursuing her music career in the big city.

Katy Keene is "coming soon" to the CW.
