RIVERDALE, the brooding reimagining of the Archie comics brought to you by the CW

Via a board vet

This is just the funniest thing I have seen on this site in a long time: https://t.co/GoVW9GuVrF

I'm never going to try to catch up with this but I do enjoy reading summaries of everything that happened after the second season. It's kind of like reading the wiki summaries of Dune books after the first two.

A perfect comparison.

i really enjoyed riverdale s1, but season 2 was too long and uneven-seeming so i kinda just abandoned the show until my friend convinced me to watch season 7 because it's heavily bisexual (it is, for a cw show), so then i came up with the unbelievably stupid idea of watching the seasons in reverse. i'm in 5 right now. this show fucking sucks. i love it

there are so many musical numbers and the cast are passable karaoke singers attempting stuff like "shallow" and "it's all coming back to me now" and sooo much musical theater and i have to look away from the screen in embarrassment whenever it happens

still: cheryl blossom is the greatest character in the history of television

she really is

i can’t remember how many seasons i watched til i dipped out, i think after luke perry died i didn’t enjoy it as much idk

i have not watched it since early s3 and don't intend to restart but whenever i come across clips, it always seems like the most bonkers shit ever (and the finale sounds straight up hilarious)

and yes, cheryl rules

about 10 years ago i was in a band and the lead singer was basically cheryl blossom ... the voice too.
