Riverdale Chapters 8 & 9: The Dumbest Boy in Riverdale

Dead Ends

A Cheryl focused episode on the Blossom family? It looks absolutely gorgeous? And the fashion is amazing? We couldn’t ask for a better time this week. We discuss the weird Blossom family vibes and using Archie, why Betty continues to be the best, in universe pun names, Archie being the dumbest boy alive, wonder why nobody knows FP is a serpent, the cooper family trauma, pondering the Jones family naming conventions, Veronica trying to make amends, & the power dynamics between Cheryl and Archie.
