I know this is mostly due to covid fuckery and this was planned as a finale, but I still feel this is a weird midseason episode. I am intrigued what happens next week. Is it just me, or has the insulation been a bit rough on Spruce? His face looked really pudgy. But maybe that's just the lack of hat, making his hair to puffy.

He got really emotional about light vandalism, considering he basically ignored the fact that a dog was mauling a person in the previous scene. "Who would ever do something so evil to a bus stop? How can busses stop there if the stop is broken? People new this bench to sit!"

Archie is a giant rear end in a top hat. "I don't like the unsavory sort of people on my rental property, so I will convince the local sheriff and a FBI agent to do an extra-legal raid on them. Let's beat them up, I am 100% sure we will find drugs there, even though I have been proven wrong before. I am the noble paladin of righteousness. Together we will return this town to the utopia it was before I was old enough to perceive its flaws. Let's make Riverdale great again!" Seriously, the show did basically nothing to convince me that he had any real reason to suspect a drug stash, other than his personal sense of vendetta. I know this universe bends to his whims, but I am still not quite convinced that those drugs weren't just planted. Well, I guess it would be a bit hard to plant a whole lab in the bath room. It turns out they never entered that room. That stuff was there all along and belonged to Archies mother. cant cook creole bream fucked around with this message at 15:12 on Feb 18, 2021 |

The Lobotomy Kid posted:Riverdale will be cleansed by free charter schools and extrajudicial violence. I feel like this series takes place in the same universe as the Yakuza games. Huh, this comparison is actually incredibly appropriate. Random swings between ultra-violent crime drama, weird sidequests and ridiculously mundane events. A main character who is incredibly passionate about the later and keeps committing crimes in the name of justice. Outside of that he's a bit of a cardboard. Random bursts of songs. Nobody ever learning any sort of lesson, from all of this nonsense... I want Archie to really get into pocket racing now and if it doesn't happen, it's your fault! Also, turn Regie into Majima. Archie is on the way to confront the human traffickers, who captured his mother. Just before he arrives, he stumbles over a circus troupe in dismay, because their bear wrestler is out sick. Naturally, they convince him to pitch in for a few shows on their state tour. During this time, he finds out that the circus is actually a front for a group of anarchists, who go from place to place to steal nuclear codes. After they have a passionate fight about it, he convinces them, that their real joy was in performing all along, so they promise to focus on entertainment from now on. Archie looks for something else to do, but figures that the main plot is a bit to far away now. Hey this kid needs help with his trading card collection!

joebuddah posted:Also did they say before this episode that Riverdale was so close to NYC. Nah, it's a migrating landscape. And now that it is no longer bound by the constrains of being a town, it's free to move where it pleases. The show isn't really big into that concept of consistency, or logical world building. Case in point: According to his tombstone, Fred Andrews died 2019, which is 7 year before the current year of 2020. I guess those seven years happened during the 2020 time dilation. By the end of next weeks episode everyone will be in their forties. cant cook creole bream fucked around with this message at 01:12 on Feb 21, 2021 |

This is a great trailer. Can anyone remind me what happened in the previous part? I don't really remember a lot. They are sort of older now and Veronica married the platonic ideal of a Chadwick. The rest is sort of vague in my memory. Archie became a firefighter. Betty is in the FBI and Jughead really sucks at his writing career.

I think the first seams of the façade of sanity show up when the show establishes that Dilton Dooley is a doomsday prepper in season 1. Honestly, he was on the right track there. I guess it went crazy in season 2 when Hiram came to town and met his eternal crimson nemesis.

"Okay, so you think Riverdale is a parallel universe to Rivervale:" "No... No I think Rivervale is a parallel universe to Riverdale. It's like the comics." Way to sound sane, Jughead. This show kinda crawled into it's own butt. But I love that they highlighted Regie's actor changing. cant cook creole bream fucked around with this message at 07:44 on Dec 15, 2021 |

And now after the explosion and Rivervale it's actually fully open and not a secret but still not operating legally but they had a film crew last week for a funeral which is the exactly opposite of keeping it on the DL You know, among all this ridiculousness, I did not even consider how stupid that is.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I reckon this show is a bit stupid sometimes. We have this secret casino, which is explicitly illegal because we have no permits whatsoever. Let's petition to advertise it on the town sign!

All of the supernatural stuff is sort of mundane now. There is an office in the FBI which focuses on such stuff and a random junior agent has clearance, to know about that stuff. "Good job. You're officially a pyrokinetic!" You know what? Good for Cheryl I bet she will be responsible with that.

Turns out there's a new movie of that one coming out next month. Funny timing. Also, I am sort of disappointed with Archie. If he doesn't cheat with his superpower, he can't even win a boxing match against a British rich boy who's like half his weight...

Get Rivervale Jughead some caffine or something. Nah, Abigail just disguised herself masterfully in order to frame them for killing Archie. It didn't work at all, since you know, Cheryl/Abigail looks kind of distinct.

Yeah, things have really gone in a weird direction when Cheryl has to be the voice of reason. Fangs' story kinda sucks though. Among all the supernatural nonsense they just do a mundane custody battle with Kevin, who isn't even in the episode. But I did like his nonchalant reaction, considering he wasn't even involved in the supernatural stuff yet: Tony: "You can't work for that guy. He's an evil person who enslaves minds and he might be responsible for kidnapping our son!" Fangs: "Oh yeah, Archie already warned me about that. All I need is an emotional tether. Hey, we can use our son for that."
