My favourite memory from Riverdale (while watching with the wife before we quit) was when Archie got his football bros to all strip their shirts off and put on these red masks to intimidate a serial killer on camera. I don’t know what they intended the threat to be, but it definitely looked like sexual assault

I have not watched Riverdale, but I've watched the short versions of it on Youtube and it was... great. I know it wouldn't be that good, with the episode amount and the length of episodes watching the actual show though. But the way it seems to escalate is just something else.

I'm sorry, Riverdale gave us WHAT?

This is the summary of the finale from last season on wikipedia.

>Due to Percival's recent curse, Bailey's Comet is headed straight for Riverdale and a barrier is placed around the town. While no one can leave, people can still enter. Heather and Cheryl summon Abigail on how to destroy the comet. Cheryl plans to use all of her Phoenix powers to destroy the comet, but it will result in one or more of the those who have been resurrected to die. Archie decides to propose to Betty, but she decides to hold off until the comet is destroyed. After watching Titanic, Jughead and Tabitha go on a date with Tabitha using her chronokinetic abilities to see her and Jughead having a family and growing old together. Heather casts a spell to allow Abigail and Toni's ancestor Thomasina to spend one last time together using the bodies of Cheryl and Toni. Mary comforts Archie about his fears of losing his loved ones. Betty decides to propose to Archie, and he happily agrees. Veronica plans to siphon the powers of the gang and give them to Cheryl so she has more than enough power to destroy the comet and keep everyone alive and is successful. The next day, the residents of Riverdale are sent back in time to the year 1955 where the gang are teenagers again and only Jughead remembering the events that happened before.

The show has gone completely bonkers.

After season 1, it turns absolutely insane. If you made up a plot at random, throwing in the most bizarre elements you can think of, chances are it genuinely happened.

And one of the best, IMO. The characters had depth, instead of just being the tropes they were known for. And they were inventive with the monster of the week, too.

Absolutely great series. I'd love if they were to reboot it.

It was such a fun show for the Archie characters. Loved it when I was younger.

I watched season one and a bit of season two. I stopped because I found it pretty ridiculous that there was a serial killer about and the solution to stop him serial killing was for the high school football team to remove their shirts, put on masks, and record a video threatening the killer.

I’m very surprised to hear it got even more ridiculous than that

Dude there’s alternate universes, super powers, witchcraft and time travel as of season 7. The serial killer stuff was downright grounded in reality. Lol
