The Chinatown tribute angle was fun.

But Archie's arc in about forty minutes went from psychopath fighting at his father's job site, to walking into hospital room with a gun to, "hey Josie maybe we could jam sometime?"
When she replied, "Yeah sure but you're singing back up" she was taking her life into her own hands! He might just as quickly have taken a swing at her and said, "I don't sing back up for anybody. Not for my father's foreman not for Hiram Lodge and not for you".

Thanks, I need the occasional reminder this woman's in grade 11.

I still lose my poo poo that Josie's actress is like 33.

There's not even a nodding acquaintance with reality here.

Case in point: why did Cheryl get so defensive when Betty asked questions about her mother being a murder? Cheryl has had multiple storylines about how much she hates her abusive mother. Why should she care if her mom goes to jail or not?

Of course, it's been implied previously that Cheryl already knows her mom is a murder so maybe she just wants to keep her out of prison so she can blackmail her mother if she ever needs cash?

I thought it had been already implied that Cheryl was the one who actually killed her father though that might have been a fever dream I had.

Shes older than the actress who plays/ed Penny, whose supposed to be a similar age to F.P!

Am I crazy or was that episode actually good?

Also, Toni's style is absurd and I can't imagine any one else being able to pull it off. What do you even call it? Goth Punk Glam?

Good Lord, this episode moved at a mile a minute and it was amazing.

Dumbass Reggie continues to be my favorite character (he's just so excited about crimes!), and I'm sad to see Moose go. Will poor Kevin ever get to be happy? :smith:

every boyfriend he gets abandons him. Also, I was right about Toni and Cheryl starting their own gang

Really looking forward to next Sex Archie podcast, there was a lot of stuff to talk about this week.

I like that Veronica thought to put a mask on Reggie for the robbery so no one would recognize him, but they're still dumb enough to drive his own car to the heist.

At last, Archie enjoys some dignity.

e: While I enjoyed this episode overall, it underlined for me what I dislike about the show's handling of LGBT relationships. We've seen so little development of Moose and Kevin's relationship, even though it was established in season 1, episode 1. Yet we've seen a whole hell of a lot of Cheryl and Toni, which is a relatively new pairing. I understand why this, of course, but it bugs me that a network like the CW that claims it's trying to be super-woke and an ally and all that seems to be reinforcing a double standard between queer relationships here. Female-female relationships are okay to show, but male-male ones are a love that dare not speak its name (at least more than once a season), apparently.

Sgt. Politeness: Sep 29, 2003; I've seen shit you people wouldn't believe. Cop cars on fire off the shoulder of I-94. I watched search lights glitter in the dark near the Ambassador Bridge. All those moments will be lost in time, like piss in the drain. Time to retch.

I made an involuntary noise when Veronica mounted Reggie and an opposite involuntary noise when Cheryl said "the pretty poisons"

I was disappointed that more of the episode wasn't devoted to Riverdale's new Bonnie and Clyde going on a crime spree, that was what got me hyped in the preview and then it was literally the same 5seconds from the clip and nothing more.
I'm glad Kevin is still a character and that Archie is back to the status quo of season one I guess but it was hard for me to give a poo poo about all the interpersonal drama when I could be watching a race against the clock to commit enough crimes to pay off a mysterious threat.

Imagine if the episode ended with the Momfia reveal instead of just farting it out in the middle.

Reggie got shot.

Gina Gershon was better than her previous appearance, she seems to have a better handle on the tone of the show and her character.

Alliteration is such a comic book staple. Pretty Poison is pretty bad.
Cheryl's still the cheerleaing team leader, right? Girl sure keeps busy. SATs, student body president, gang leader, cheerleader captain, archery practice, and doin' some crimes in her spare time.

I can see the series finale being Jughead's narration ending with him and Archie as lovers in a nice bed and breakfast after they ran away together.

But then we see it was just a dream and Jug is actually under attack by zombies in the high school, but then aliens save his life at the last second before he's eaten and they beam him up to their ship and they tell him they have a reality altering device and then give Jug the position of god of earth and he can recreate it however he wants and, in fact, everyone's in Riverdale are fictional characters whom's lives have been rebooted dozens of times through comics and tv shows, and as Jughead looks down on Earth he realizes that his and his friends are living in a repeating hell, but maybe this time he can do it right and it can all end and then they just cut to RIVERDALE and the show is over.

Like, that probably won't happen, but you can't tell me with certainty it won't.

Lay off the fizzle rocks, my man.

But you're right, there's nothing out of reach for this crazy show.

Kyle McLachan shows up at the Chock-Lit Shoppe, as Agent Dale Cooper. Orders up his usual, takes one bite of pie, gets the latest info about the town from Pop and goes, "This poo poo is too crazy, I'm outta here!"
