We continue to be delighted by Riverdale's focus on teen drama interests (crushes, friendships, balancing responsibilities) with just a sprinkling of over the top performances. We discuss the platonic love for Betty, Fred Andrew's folksiness, whether Veronica should've actually stopped Betty, the nuanced depiction of Josie, the depiction of Archie & Grundy's relationship, puzzle over Jughead's place in the school culture and heap praise on heightened queens Alice and Cheryl.
