if I found s1 a bit tiring and tapped out 7 or 8 episodes in should I try again with s2

Simon H., Monday, 6 November 2017 16:04 (six years ago) link

if you’re not feeling it after 7 or 8 episodes of s1, i would say s2 is only going to offer more of the same of whatever you’re not into

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Monday, 6 November 2017 16:41 (six years ago) link

basically yep

HA

that's awesome

always thought jingle jangle was such a weak name for a drug tho

JJ sounds way better but so far only veronica has used it (favourite char in the show btw)

lol we saw that too! we were in TJ’s yesterday & had a giggle

one month passes...

Almost caught up, my random thoughts:

  • These kids never have any homework to do. You see them in class, but no one is ever teaching them anything. This high school is awesome.
  • Archie is so dumb. He's incapable of focusing on more than one thing at once. I have to focus on football! I have to focus on music! I can't possibly do both! It's a good thing he doesn't have any homework. I have a math test and a history test! I can't possible study for both!
  • Archie is the only one of the core cast that acts like a high school kid. The rest are essentially adults.
  • I LOVE all the moms. Especially the more terrible they get.
  • Luke Perry has aged well.
  • "Betty's ponytail is iconic and beyond reproach!"
  • Cheryl and Veronica's dance off.
  • I really liked ep 2:3. Good character development for Kevin. A lot of times he’s just a bit of comic relief, but they did a good job in this ep of giving him some more depth. Also the very sweet conversations he had with his dad and moose.
  • lol let's have a street race
  • lol jingle jangle
My definitive character ranking:
  • Cheryl
  • Betty
  • Veronica
  • The moms (mom ranking: Alice, Hermaninie, Penelope, Sierra, Mary)
  • Kevin
  • The Pussycats
  • Moose
  • Jughead
  • Fred
  • Reggie
  • Sheriff Keller
  • FP
  • Everyone else
  • Archie
  • Archie's music

And I totally didn't realize it was a new Reggie. I thought s1 Reggie just got a good makeover with a better haircut.

Jeff, Friday, 29 December 2017 13:06 (six years ago) link

Forgot Tony Todd in my character ranking. Somewhere in the high middle.

Jeff, Friday, 29 December 2017 13:22 (six years ago) link

Yeah Archie is hella dumb. God he’s pretty though

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 29 December 2017 16:14 (six years ago) link

A dumb and gullible walking set of abs.

Jeff, Friday, 29 December 2017 16:28 (six years ago) link

veronica is probably my favourite

but wait why single out archie as dumb

infinity (∞), Friday, 29 December 2017 16:51 (six years ago) link

i'm in love with Cheryl tbh

(•̪●) (carne asada), Friday, 29 December 2017 16:53 (six years ago) link

she’s so great

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 29 December 2017 17:14 (six years ago) link

How did Penelope recover from her 3rd degree burns so quickly? That should have taken months or longer to heal. That is my burning question.

Jeff, Friday, 29 December 2017 17:23 (six years ago) link

i dont like cheryls fake lips

theyre too distracting

infinity (∞), Friday, 29 December 2017 17:24 (six years ago) link

xpost yeah i was hoping for more bandages for longer

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 29 December 2017 17:24 (six years ago) link

what do we think of jughead as the omniscient narrator?

kinda weird but i enjoy it

like how does he know all these things yet is so busy with the serpents, writing a book, spending time with betsy, and still manages to sleuth around and know everything

infinity (∞), Friday, 29 December 2017 17:26 (six years ago) link

i like jug but he is runnerup in dumbness
his bookishness is just a good cloak for baaaaad decision making

like that peppermint patty lawyer stunt with the cutting off the tattoo DONT U COME BACK HERE NO MORE

it’s like college degree level dumbness but it’s still AS dumb as anything archie has pulled

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 29 December 2017 17:44 (six years ago) link

i like him as narrator though
kind of a corny sam spade vibe or something

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 29 December 2017 17:44 (six years ago) link

otm

its the whole weirdly veiled rockabilly/old-timey thing in the background? ha kinda cute tho

infinity (∞), Friday, 29 December 2017 17:50 (six years ago) link

i greatly prefer reading this thread to watching the show

lol otm.

been watching this with my wife, we're about 7 eps in. i think we like it but kinda undecided so far.

Spottie, Tuesday, 2 January 2018 05:20 (six years ago) link

the cutting off the tattoo scene seemed a bit much! like i know jugg is supposed to have bit of edge now he's a serpent but slicing off a layer of flesh off a woman's arm with a knife is kind of fucked

khat person (jim in vancouver), Tuesday, 2 January 2018 18:08 (six years ago) link

agree

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 2 January 2018 18:09 (six years ago) link

i was hoping they’d do this but never in my wildest dreams did i expect such dope casting :D

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Saturday, 6 January 2018 00:21 (six years ago) link

That’s...wild

^_^

infinity (∞), Saturday, 6 January 2018 01:18 (six years ago) link

Gregg Araki is directing an upcoming episode.

I might need to start watching this.

iCloudius (cryptosicko), Saturday, 6 January 2018 06:38 (six years ago) link

you should! it’s nutso & ott & fun

Squeaky Fromage (VegemiteGrrl), Saturday, 6 January 2018 07:10 (six years ago) link

Me: "These stills from the next episode of Riverdale look super-ultra-gay. What in the world is going on here?"
Riverdale: "Directed by Gregg Araki."
Me: "Oh holy shit." pic.twitter.com/K8pLorX0KG

Not sure why Archie is wrestling. He can barely handle playing football and his other interests. Don't start another sport Arch.

Jeff, Saturday, 6 January 2018 13:45 (six years ago) link

as i said on twitter, if Archie doesnt wrestle Reggie I will throw my tv out the window. i’m counting on u Gregg Araki

hi

papa poutine (∞), Friday, 9 February 2018 03:24 (six years ago) link

thought they’d stop mentioning that tragically named character now that he’s gone, but his spirit lives on

mh, Friday, 9 February 2018 03:34 (six years ago) link

last ep was good, but not as good as the one before.
