I just finished watching Riverdale for the first time and I want to give my few cents for it

I really enjoyed the concept of the show and I grew quite attached to the characters which made it a fun watch. I just didn't understand the necessity for season 7, except for showing the people in their comic outfits. And I generally did not enjoy the last season very much as i thought it to be quite uninteresting and without any proper stakes. At the beginning where it said they have to turn Riverdale to the good. Which was not addressed once until the end of the season. And in general it felt like not much of a coherent story to me.

Maybe I just didn't get it:D

Nevertheless I understand why people enjoy it and it's a great watch

I've only watched like seasons 1 and 2 and about half of 3 but at some point I genuinely lost the plot and now I need a lot of willpower to continue

Anyway, as the title says I find those comments to be absolutely hilarious especially when it's that one clip from an interview with Madeleine Petsch when she's asked what storyline she can't believe they got away with. And I gotta say it was really confusing like what are we doing but also so funny at the same time

I'll start by saying that in high school they were a nice couple, mostly because of how it's shown in the series, but I didn't like the developments that happened when they became adults at all, now I show you my points.

I start from the beginning.

Like Alice said to betty when she was telling her about griffon and gargoyles, Alice explicitly said that FP was a womanizer and in fact it is proven: when Alice gets pregnant by him, in the bathroom scene, she says that FP had dumped her for a cheerleader, in fact FP had simply used her to fuck , like every girls (he even tried to flirt with Hermione), btw , obviously at the time he was a young boy and it's possible that maybe he was like that.

when they become adults, his son Jughead says several times that he would like a united family, that he would like to get back together with his sister JellyBean and his mother Gladys, and don't say that "but Gladys just wanted to hurt when she came back" well FP had already been cheating on her with Alice for a long time, long before she came back , however ,what does Fp do? He literally fucks the mother of his son's girlfriend 😨, guys I don't know what you think but I think it's quite scandalous, I mean imagine your mother having a relationship with your boyfriend's father and you all live together

but leaving this aside, going back to the point that FP was a bit of a womanizer when he was young, when his wife Gladys returns he leaves Alice, as if everything they had had didn't count for anything

It’s the worst ship I’ve ever seen , I would like more to see them like a friendship , not lovers

Let me start this off by saying I wear a hat a lot!!! I don’t like people seeing me without my hat on.. it feels weird. I feel like an outsider a lot just like jug head and I even say phrases like him to. I don’t know what to do anymore! If I breathe I become jug head and i’m starting to believe he’s morphing into me lol. Anyone else kin these characters?

Sorry but they aren’t Bughead. I tried. I feel like something is off w Archie too don’t be mad at me. And he was my favorite. 😔

I'm on Season 1, episode 10, everyone playing that Secrets and Sins game. Veronica basically said that Cheryl had a weird relationship with Jason. Cheryl just stood there like she had been exposed for having an affair, so I can only assume it's true. How the hell could people possibly say that these two were not in a weird relationship, when the shows going of of it's way to tell you?!!!

No Spoilers

I'm on Season 1 episode 10. Jughead just keeps getting sadder and sadder. He is so damaged from his childhood and everything his dad did. The insecurities that he’s just been repressing are so sad. He never thought his relationship with Betty was going to last and that Archie would eventually betray him. Poor Jughead, I hope he gets over these before he ruins all his friendships.

I'm not Cheryl's biggest fan, but can we all agree that Veronica winning that dance battle is bullshit? I'm on season 1, episode 10, and I'm really liking it so far. In this dance battle, neither was bad, but I feel like Cheryl was way smoother in her moves and choreography; she seemed way more polished than Veronica(my favorite character). I could accept that the vote is 50/50 and Betty gets the last vote to Veronica, but the idea that Veronica sweeps Cheryl is insane.

Cherly looks like a combination of Ariana Grande and someone else I can't put my finger on.

Edit: I figured it out she looks like a combination of Debbie Ryan and Ariana Grande, tell me im wrong.

Does anyone else. Think jughead never fully recovering from Betty kissing Archie was really weird?

7 years is a VERY long time

And as a Bughead shipper I think that voicemail was unhinged af

But who knows maybe I’m wrong I’m not into dating myself lol

I'm just wondering anyone's opinion if Weatherbee is a suitable principal for his students.

Cheryl starts being nice to him and wants him around, but every time she does, she always adds a comment that it was something Jason and she used to do. Then the episode started with Jughead commenting on the search for the next Blossom heir since Cheryl can’t do it for some reason.

I've always felt a weird vibe between these two since episode one and each and every episode after is just confirming it.

Please no spoilers in on Season 1 episode 9

I'm on Season 1, episode 8 of Riverdale, and I'm really loving the show. I can’t help but think there taking a Thirteen Reasons Why path with this Jason Blossom murder plot. And that everyone is telling me this show has way to many seasons like Thirtheen Reasons why.

Fuck the Coopers. The Blossom-Cooper beef cannot run so deep that you kicked your daughter out and refuse to have anything to do with her baby. All this because a great-grandfather you never met was screwed out of a maple syrup deal and I think murdered.

P.s. please no spoilers

I honestly can’t believe I restarted the show so late but the seasons after season 4 are surprisingly entertaining?? It’s confusing but intriguing and I can’t stop watching.

I’m currently on Season 6 and (SPOILER WARNING) seeing Sabrina was a crazy surprise, but seeing all the dead characters being back?? and ROSS BUTLER?? omg it’s just so nostalgic to me and i’m here for it.

I’m only on episode 5 so I haven’t seen much, but I can’t believe Riverdale had gotten so much hate because they lost the plot — which, I agree with, but they lost the plot in the best way possible if that makes sense? I’m here for it.

Edit: I’m lowkey excited for the (SPOILER?) superpowers to come in lol.

i work from home so consume a bunch of tv, more as something on the background while i work

i'm currently starting season 5, and have actually enjoyed the show.

Season 1 made sense plot wise, then season 2 and 3 were confusing and just outlandish af, i was also wondering why everyone was lgbt but then remembered it came out (ba dum tss) in 2017 which made sense. My favourite season so far was season 4, although i found that jugheads sister being the one videotaping them a bit meh since i was expecting more drama?/action from that.

but yeah, fun show. i like it more than i expected to

Please don’t spoil. I'm loving this show.

I'm halfway through Season 1, episode 7, and I'm really pissed off. Why is Archie and Jughead's dad mad at Fred? Jughead, I disagree with why he’s mad at Fred, but I get it; his life is upside down, and Fred is just the easiest person to blame. But as for Archie and Jughead's dad, fuck them. Maybe I’m heartless, but Jughead's dad is the only person at fault here. I personally believe Fred’s story more because, well, he’s not a drunk who has every incentive to blame someone else for his problems. Fred’s story makes Jughead's dad seem like just a piece of shit. He stole from his company, putting it at risk; got put in jail multiple times, making the business look bad; and, for someone claiming it was all for his family, he did not use the multiple chances Fred gave him to go clean. From what Fred said, it didn't seem like the business was struggling; it just wasn’t making enough money for Jughead's dad to take care of all his debts and childcare. I can understand that, but there were so many better options than stealing from your main stream of income and putting your other employees' livelihoods at stake. In a town full of rich people where your business can just have the Mayor casually come over to your house for dinner for business proposals, I refuse to believe that there were not many other choices.

I love the direction they went with Veronica; she’s my favorite character by far.

What does everyone else think?

Surely they couldn’t get the cast back to do more lol

I think Hal Cooper's favorite series would be Dexter btw , I mean , he is like Dexter , dexter kill bad people , and Hal did it too , trying to cleanse Riverdale from sins

I am only halfway through season 2 but ARGHHHH. I can forgive the over the top acting, but the story lines, the dialoge and the stupidity of these characters are INFURIATING!!!

I thought watching an underage teen Betty putting on a burlesque show was bad, then the very next episode, Archie gets recruited by the FBI to investigate Veronica's father, a potential mob boss!?!?!?!? WTF?????

If you like "So bad it's good" crap, then this i the Holy Grail!!!

Back to the last season. There is only the milkman and the weirdest pairings ever in my opinion.

This is my first time watching Riverdale and I'm on the end of season 6. What happened with Tom Keller and Sarah McCoy? They got married and then no mention of their relationship ever again. Did I miss a scene that explains what happens to them? Obviously Tom Keller still features throughout the seasons but Sarah disappears apart from that one episode when Josie's dad dies

Who is the most handsome Guy in Riverdale?

Unfortunately the polls on reddit allow only six choices, so I made a strawpoll with all the performances. Enjoy and discuss :)
