This was a really great episode! So many things to love about it.
I'm enjoying the Hermione/Fred interaction a lot. They are really the only adults on the show that I enjoy. Betty's dad is creepy and I hate Cheryl's mom too. ARCHIE AND RONNIE I CANNOT . “How’s life in a PG world?” Veronica patching up Archie was so cute! And she seemed jealous about Archie and Valerie. “Jealous Ronnie?” “Please, I had my seven minutes in heaven with Archie Andrews." OKAY FLIRTING MUCH? I loved how they looked at each other in that scene and how they looked at each other as she walked away and also at the memorial. Guaranteed they are going to almost hook up but then find out about their parents or something... Betty's storyline is amazing and Betty/Jughead are so cute! I loved that Jughead seemed a bit jealous over her "date" and their looks to each other before memorial were so cute! I love that Jughead was there when she found out about Polly's engagement too, I think it bonds them. Their whole detective SL is really awesome, and I cant wait for more interaction next week. Loved the Valerie/Archie, Cheryl/Veronica, and Veronica/Hermione moments too. I still feel like there is more to discover about Cheryl. Oh and Reggie was actually sort of likable this episode. I did miss the Betty/Veronica and Archie/Jughead moments though! No Moose or Josie again this week, which doesnt make me happy. And Kevin barely got anything too.

Cheryl calling them the sad breakfast club has hilarious . Cheryl is always getting the great lines. Her dream about Jason was super creepy.The Blossoms are just horrible parents and people. Loved seeing Cheryl standing up to them. The funeral scene was Mrs Blossom brushing Archie's hair was weird. It gave me Grundy vibes .
Loving the flirting between Veronica and Archie. They need to get together. Betty and Jughead have great chemistry, I am loving the whole investigation thing they have going on. I like that Archie was looking at music and football this week and not just pining for Grundy. I am starting to think that the Coopers are way too obvious to be behind Jason's death. So I am still trying to figure that out. Watching Betty put her family name up on the board was a good scene. Watching Fred and Hermione interact was confusing. Didn't they already have a date last episode? I have no idea what is going on there . __________________

Great ep tonight
Bughead, my fav 🚢 so far Jughead and Betty are just to cute, the looks and him a little not happy about Betty's date. Bring on more of them ❤ Archie, didn't mind him tonight, like he is not pinning away for old teacher girl. He and Ronnie are to cute, Veronica patched him up. 😀 Cheryl, love her lines, she is great __________________

I agree with most of what's been said. The show is getting better and better.
I'm still fascinated by Archie/Betty, but I do like his chemistry with Valerie. And Hayley Law, the actress playing her, is lovely BTW. |

Cheryl parents are horrible people, just wow. I liked the extra focus on them in tonight's episode. They were rude to my girl Veronica. I'm glad she didn't allow them to get to her.
Poor Fred wanted a redo with Hermione. I loved that she called him for help. There two have a history and I can't wait to dive more into it. I especially loved how she told Fred that he was the only one she trusted in Riverdale, smart lady. Finally Archie got to concentrate on his music and football, no Ms.Grundy in sight. So him and Val might get something started. I'm willing to see where this go. I think it was a good call to turn down being captain of the football team, but remain on the team while pursuing his music. Cheryl is confusing me. I don't know whether to like or dislike her. She's still grieving about Jason and this is giving her a vulnerable side. I have to say I'm loving the friendship that's developing with Veronica. Veronica was definitely there for her and gave her courage to speak out at Jason's funeral, against her parents. Betty found out some serects about her family and their bad blood feud with the Blossoms. I liked her interaction with her dad and Jughead. It was nice to see the type of personality that her dad had without her mom. So Jason and Polly were engaged. Jason started changing after he got with Polly. That Trevor guy mentioned he was selling off his things. Clifford not only has bad blood with Betty's father but with Veronica's as well. Crazy. We got more information on Polly, that she was engaged to Jason, and that they had an argument on the night that she decided to kill herself. Betty's dad blames Jason for Polly's behavior. And I guess we now know who broke into the Sheriff's house. I wonder if Betty's father is protecting Polly in case she was involved in Jason's death... Really appreciated Veronica's scenes outside the group. I enjoyed her scenes with Archie also. I loved how she wrapped his injured hand. They are my main ship that I'm rooting for, but I wouldn't mind them dating other people first. __________________

I liked this one. They should keep this light!creepy&twisted tone. It works, at least for me.
Agreed with a lot of what's already been written above. Omg, that mansion. To quote Luke Danes, “See, this is what causes peasants to revolt. This is how heads end up on pikes.” But I’d be lying if I said I didn’t like its gothic vibes (all with the creepy granny ). Speaking of which, I love Jughead but his voiceovers stating the obvious are a bit cringeworthy. Continuing to like Luke Perry’s character. I think I’m naturally biased in favor of tv’s lenient parents given they tend to remind me of my own mom at least a little bit. I don’t, however, care about his relationship with Veronica’s mom. Though I like her too given she’s also a supportive, friendly parent. I just enjoy them both more around their children than each other. Veronica/Cheryl being friends or frenemies is fine by me. Can Jughead and Reggie have that too? I liked them exchanging elaborate insults few eps ago. Archie/Reggie dynamic is nice too tho. I liked Archie’s stuff with music and football. Both of his coaches are a bit cliché but enjoyable enough. And I have to admit I lol-ed when the music one trashed his songs. (Not that I necessarily support that kind of approach to tutoring in rl, lol.) Curious about Valerie. She seems interesting and, while I enjoy her interactions with Archie and look forward to more of them, I hope they don’t reduce her to just being Archie’s temporary love interest. And where is Josie? Cheryl's parents are giving Betty's mom a run for her money in the terrible ppl and parents department. |

If we are forced into a triangle with Archie can it be Valerie Betty and Archie cause damn Valerie and Archie had me hooked. They have the hot chemistry and connection I expected Veronica and Archie to have.
Betty Cooper continues to be my fav. And Camila continues to have more chemistry with the females than she does with males. __________________
