In a sentence I never thought I'd type...

In defense of Riverdale, they've been handling it way better than I expected them to. There have been no shots of mutilated bodies, no grim details about what happened to them (all of it's just covered with the umbrella of "tortured,") and the goriest it's been is some blood on a phone booth (with no body in the shot.)

It definitely isn't some Criminal Minds level torture porn which pleases me.

I literally don’t understand Kevin and what’s supposed to be going on in his brain. The boy’s been self-sabotaging since high school. It’s very sad.

It's my headcanon Reggie was fully in to see it through but Fangs was too hurt and sad from Kevin's persistence in having a fling so he went home to eat the cereal Kevin bought earlier in the episode, which to the showrunner's credit, was a nice callback.

I genuinely think after seeing him help Betty while still making Hiram happy he is playing double agent. The fact that Fangs declared it and not Reggie himself makes me wanna still headcanon what I wanna. He could've easily noticed that Kangs were on the rocks and thought nah I'm not in the mood for this and Fangs automatically saw it as OH SO HE'S STRAIGHT. And let's face it Kangs, especially Kevin, are being idiotic rn so it wouldn't be a stretch to have Fangs just make that mistake.

If you're not gonna show their scene Roberto I get to come up with whatever I want in my head! BI REGGIE WILL LIVE ON! Or maybe I'm just projecting lol.

Who wrote last nights episode and thought it was a good idea? The fact that Cheryl just declared them all sexually fluid was weird. This show just gives me bad second hand embarrassment. I'm gonna keep watching because I have no other shows to watch but I just want to know why they think they are making good choices.

they still have that unfinished "plot" where Archie and Jughead still need to kiss, because the main 4 have all made out except those 2

that's where I thought the plot was going

Barchie is dead already?? Disappointing. Varchie is so fucking boring.

Betty is my fav but i'm not interested in this TBK/Polly plotline at all. Of course she had to mention her "darkness" again lol.

Jughead and Tabitha's plotline is interesting. He's a mess tho. STOP IT. GET SOME HELP, JUG.

Do the writers know that Cheryl could be sassy and badass without being a shitty toxic person??

At least there was no Hiram in this episode and i didn't have to hear Veronica say "daddy"

Watching Hiram & Veronica scenes weirds me out because I swear these two get a hard on at being competitive with one another. I feel like there's a chemistry there that shouldn't be lmao

Cheryl always came across as a mean girl, her being a toxic adult makes sense.
