Lord Krangdar posted:That makes me curious, who does Kevin date in the comics? I don't believe he has a steady love interest as a teenager in the regular comics, but in the particular comic where Archie took a bullet for him, he was married to a doctor named Clay, whom he met at physical therapy after coming back from active duty.

Veronica went from lounging around in a nightie to a full outfit to go find Jughead at Pop's in the middle of the night; T-shirts and jeans aren't even in this girl's wardrobe, huh?

Well there's our Blossom incest twist. Seriously though they would be at best 3rd cousins right? Doesn't seem like that big of a deal.

Yeah, pretty distant, but still. I don't know that "Coopers ARE Blossoms" was on anybody's board. And now we've got a heroin overdose - things are ratcheting up but fast here in the home stretch!

Anyone else kind of think Cheryl was about to go full-on revenge murder? Because I sure did. EDIT: Well, I think I just spotted the shot where KJ broke his arm! Spergatory fucked around with this message at 03:02 on May 5, 2017 |

I liked that they were unambiguous in wrapping up the biggest parts of the whodunnit this hour...but kinda hate that it means next week is pretty obviously going to be a full hour of setup and hooks for Season 2. The wait is going to be interminable, especially if it's another 13 episodes instead of a full season (Even though the shorter run probably works in the show's favor.)Edmund Lava posted:So that preview "Something wicked this way comes". They better not be loving with us. I hope they are. I'm perfectly happy with the show tackling over-the-top teen soap material with a suitably arch, self-aware sensibility, WITHOUT having to lean on genre hoodoo. Leave that to literally everything else on the CW.

Given the sheer insanity of this season, it honestly didn't matter that much who killed Jason to me. I had theories on everyone from the Coopers to Cheryl in a fugue state to Jughead's identical cousin Nathan (he's a real character drat it!). I was more about the craziness of the ride, and boy howdy, was it crazy. And it's not even over yet! Basically, I am not watching this show for the mystery. I am watching for poo poo like that close-up of Cheryl's crisply made-up eyes as a single tear falls from each in turn, followed by her marching downstairs in slow-motion to some depressing indie song to confront her brother's murderer. For poo poo like Jughead giving an oscar-worthy performance of the heartbroken, disillusioned son to try and suss out his dad's innocence or guilt. I am watching this show to see teenage sleuths infiltrate gangbangers' apartments and find dead bodies in bathtubs. I loving love this trashy garbage show.

Man, a shittier show would've swerved at the last minute and pinned the murder on Polly for a cheap "DID I JUST BLOW YOUR MIND" pop. I love that the Blossoms were on the board as potential suspects fairly early on and the show followed through on it.

Or the recording would have been deleted somehow, stolen on the way to the cops or have it taken by a deputy on Cliff Blossom's payroll. After many years of lazy (mostly non-CW) TV show writing that always takes away the crucial evidence as soon as they provide this was SO good to see handled like this.

I was afraid they'd go the "Yeah, Mustang, that guy we totally showed you one time is the real murderer!!!" route and wuss out of having anyone actually important get the rap. Glad they didn't.

I've been coasting on the belief that the murder was consensually between the Blossoms and the Coopers because I haven't put that much thought into it and I was kind of right?

I wonder at which point they decided to make the comic relief character of the digests into the designated emotional pincushion of the TV show. Seriously, the latter half of the season was basically "hey, let's stab Jughead in the heart! Over, and over, and over again!"

Seriously, the latter half of the season was basically "hey, let's stab Jughead in the heart! Over, and over, and over again!" Jughead's always been the outsider in the comics. In the more lighthearted comics that means that he's the guy who rolls his eyes at all the love triangles. In a CW show, he's Donnie Darko. I think the other problem with adapting a Jughead closer to the comics version is that you'd end up with someone constantly rolling his eyes and making fun of the over-the-topness of the show. Once Riverdale becomes a show that points out how insane it is rather than a show that includes lines like "This is eugenics is done now!" then they've lost their way. I think at the end of the day though Jughead is an Archie Comics character who doesn't really want to be in Archie Comics. He wants to be in Riverdale, but he doesn't want to be in a comics about love triangles. Riverdale Jughead is a CW character who doesn't want to be on the CW. So it all works for me.

I would understand if they didn't find a body, but they did. A compete, bloated corpse with ligature marks, frozen fingers and toes, and a hole in its head, that was preserved enough to still be identifiable.
