I really think that whoever said Archie remains blissfully unaware of the A plot until the others wind up somehow saving him from it might be dead on.

What if... they don't save him from it!!

I mean the show is just called Riverdale and the Archie comics guys have repeatedly gone the route of "lets just kill archie" lately

Man, too many people in this thread apparently don't know about the stride gum episode of Smallville.

I am going to come out and say I stand strongly against the woods cult theory in that it will dilute the surprise when Sabrina shows up and does magic.

I hope this show slowly evolves into Fred Andrews just teaching all the parents of Riverdale how to be a good parent.

My uncle at CW told me that in an upcoming episode nothing much happens because they have to keep pausing the action so characters explain their references to Archie.

Alice was a character I like but I didn't expect the show to manage to get me to actively cheer for her this quickly after all the lovely stuff she has already done.

The Blossoms are like a Gothic verison of the family from Dallas if they had syrup instead of oil.

Her lip liner was also very crooked in one scene. Get it together Cheryl!

I know Jughead's dad is a total dud, but shouldn't he have stepped in at the party when the kids were throwing around accusations of incest and sexual assault? Nah, better just stand there and wait for the punches to start flying.

Veronica can do better. :argh:

Well Jughead's dad is also trying to collect all the information he can about what is going down in the town.

The only legitimate reason why anyone should hate Jughead is if he reminds them of their teenage pretentious self who used to speak that highly of Tarantino movies.

Yeah, that is the neat thing with the core 4. Betty and Jughead are playing the "achetypes" they kinda are in the comic, while Archie has been made into an idiot for his archetype to fit exist in the world, and Veronica is purposely trying to get past her origin to become the super best friend type.

I wouldn't say the Blossoms, didn't the last episode pretty much rule out the mother from Cheryl saw or am I misremembering? So it could still be the father.

I love that even though Archie is hero now who will punch through some loving ice the kid is still the biggest idiot.

No genre-bending twist, and it was Hiram or Hermione, for sure.

That's stupid. The truth is going to get reveal later down the line that Archie was the actual target for the gunman and the mayor is behind it all, duhh.

I'm glad it didn't went straight into paranormal. They are building up to something for sure and I think if it was just zombies it would be kinda disappointing. The show is going places but there are more crazy places than just "zombies"
