Riverdale, episode 3 **flails**
SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS!
WHO WAS AS EXCITED AS ME TO SEE STRANGER THINGS BARB ON THE SHOW?!?! I wonder if that casting happened before or after Stranger Things became a huge hit...anyway, it was just so cool to see her...even if her character's name was "Ethel" and she looked like...well, she looked like Barb but without the huge glasses. I feel like the casting had to be after the cult fame...
This episode felt like our first big detour from the Jason storyline and that they are trying to make Cheryl a little more likable than she was in the first two episodes. Also, does anyone else find this world so fascinating, it feels like the show has been on for years but it's only been 3 hours?
The Football player sex scandal storyline was a little cliche, I feel like we've seen that plot before, but it was worth it for the twist with Betty becoming Polly because that sequence got disturbing. Again, no one on this show looks like they are 15 (though does the actress playing Betty remind anyone else of Katee Sackhoff? She could totally play her daughter...)
I had hope that the Archie/Grundy storyline was done when it comes to them being a couple, but I guess the writers wanted to get them back together so that when Betty and Jughead have to confront her about being at the lake on July 4th, things can REALLY come crashing down. Like Jughead said at the end, he tries to protect Archie, but sometimes things happen and the truth has to come out.
I don't know why but the crazy survivalist boy scout leader kinda cracks me up even though meeting someone like that in real life would freak me out. Maybe it was just the casting.
As usual, I am in LOVE with Josie and the Pussycats. I loved their sequence with Archie, talking about him writing songs for them, making him understand the limits of his understanding but then not pushing him away completely. I could seriously watch them do their own show.
Yup, pretty much my guilty pleasure show right now! Does anyone know how fast CW puts them up for streaming? I've been watching them on Friday, but if they put it up on Thursday night after it airs, I would totally stay up late to watch it.
