Honestly the fact that for years the plots were Veronica trying to run a business, Archie trying to do stuff for the town and the people, Jughead falling down some conspiracy rabbit hole, and Betty just straight up FIGHTING MANIAC SERIAL KILLERS is absolutely insane to me. It was like multiple shows in one.

A movie requires watching the screen a lot, whereas things like this just require glances here and there if you want for the pics So it's easier for us autistics to consume content like this cause we can do other stuff and can feel free to look away from the screen without pressure, as opposed to a movie where if you look away you might miss something!

People might be joking about the Riverdale to Academy Award pipeline Should exist. All of these actors (especially Lili Reinhart) deserve an honorary OSCAR for not cackling at every line delivery in Riverdale. They are stronger than me
"It's not interesting but it is his storyline" is such a perfect way to describe archie
god this video really tested my adhd so much, because, no exaggeration, if you stop paying attention for even just 20 seconds, the entire thing turns to nonsense. i was following along perfectly, goblin king, kill the red paladin, got it got it. looked over at my cat one time and suddenly bettys in a home run by hyram loyalists and everyones being fed a drug inexplicably called fizzlerocks. HELP hahahaha

My children named our Elf on the Shelf "Jingle Jangle" years ago and now I need to rethink my entire parenting experience.
“We’re not here for continuity, we’re here for vibes.” SO TRUE edit: also the idea that Mr Honey was a bad person for wanting the students at his school to not??? get murdered??? is wild
Also, Lili Reinhart is phenomenal actress like she was giving Oscar worthy work as Betty to make me believe that character, I’m always checking her Wiki to see her upcoming projects 🤞🏼 Tony incoming

as a fellow riverdalian thank you for treating this show like the piece of avant-garde art that it is. my fav riverdale theory: I think the juvie that Archie goes to in s3 is named "Leopold and Loeb" as a reference to the events of "Archie's Weird Fantasy", a weird little indie play that the creator of Riverdale wrote in like 2003 that got a cease-and-desist order before it could ever be performed because the play is about archie discovering that he's gay(!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) and rooming with infamous gay murderer nathan leopold.

Riverdale is that show you can pick a random episode in every season- watch them out of order and it will make 100% sense
I feel the need to inform you that like 2 months ago I saw Moulin Rouge on Broadway and Kevin was in fact the main character. I saw Riverdale in the playbook and nearly lost my mind. (He did actually do a really good job though)

I started uncontrollably laughing every time Carly said "erotic tickling" - I go to art school and I listen to these videos while I'm in studio, and I actually had to stop and resume once I went home because I didn't want anyone to ask me why I was laughing 😭
For people confused about ROTC: it's military recruitment in schools. Different schools have different branches. You wear a mock military uniform in school, you learn about the military, you can even go to mini boot camps. It's insidious. I went to a school with an ROTC program and it was WILD. My brother was in ROTC and was pressured into joining the military his senior year. This was 2002. He didn't actually want to join. He ended up being one of the first troops deployed to Afghanistan when the war kicked off.
@allbymyshelf4125

And actually, in high school/middle school it's Jr. ROTC, so like, you learn about the military but you're not forced to sign up - though I'm sure it's used as a feeder for direct recruitment/recruitment to college ROTC. If you do ROTC, which is college, (and you get a scholarship with it usually) then you're committed to serving in some capacity for a certain amount of time after college - sometimes it's just national guard, but it's often an active-duty position for 4 years or something.

the way I’ve watched this entire show TWICE (no, I don’t know why I did that either) and I still found it HARD to follow you when explaining the plot + had forgotten like 90% of this even happens. Honestly I wish I had watched this video with no context about the show bc that must be an EXPERIENCE.
fun fact the ides of march (aka march 15- the day julius caesar was assassinated) is actually celebrated!!!! at the university of st andrews the classics students throw a ball where everyone dresses in togas and drinks and it’s very secret history core
they somehow out-unhinged supernatural and that is a success on its own
I literally forgot you were talking about Jugheads fanfic for a second and i didn't even notice because it could also just absolutely happen irl in the show
I just audibly yelled “NOOOOO!“ when you brought up the tickling videos… I had completely removed that from my brain for a reason 😭😂
I truly can’t thank you enough for putting names on these photos and highlighting them when you mention them. That was the SINGLE flaw of Mike’s videos because god damn there were so many characters 😭
time to drop part 3!
I’ve never even seen this show but I’m fully invested in this recap.

Funny how every generation of teenagers since the Xs had they unhinged teenage shows that were extremely popular and the shows just got crazier and crazier (BH90210, The OC, Gossip Girl, Pretty Little Liars and Riverdale). I see Riverdale as a natural progression
I love that saying that Archie has superpowers of invincibility in season 3 foreshadows Archie's actual superhuman invincibility that makes him bulletproof except when he's in the presence of rare earth mineral palladium in season 6.
you're so real for this queen - - - even worse than following this bonkers show for the last decade, is not having ANYONE to talk to about it
The fact that i saw Riverdale airing live since season 2, and never did a rewatch (exemption for like some reaction videos here on KZread), but still being able to remember VIVIDLY everything she said was so good, good job with the video and good job Riverdale for being a cultural reset for television 🙏🏻

52:42 Die-hard Heathers the musical fan here the football players' names are Kurt and Ram they sing a song about wanting to r-word a girl together called Blue and the other Heathers (played by Betty and Veronica) almost let them do it and then they tell the whole school they did and then they get killed and its framed as a double unalive pact because they were gay and didn't want to live in the homophobic 80’s anymore. It's crazy so it's the perfect musical for Riverdale. Hope this helps!

I don't know crap about Riverdale or the Archie comics that came before but Jughead is my favorite character in both because A) "I'm weird. I'm a weirdo. I don't fit in, and I don't want to fit in." and B) this one comic screenshot I saw that I'm just going to quote directly because it lives in my head rent free: Jughead's mom: Well, maybe it's normal and natural for a boy of his age! Later on he'll get to enjoy girls! Jughead: It's not normal and natural for *this* boy to enjoy girls, mom! Not *now!* Not *ever!*
not this video being so damn EXCELLENT that somehow I want to rewatch this chaotic show.
I need part 3. I need to know that aliens, witches, parallel univers and the poly relationship were not a fever dream i had. None of my friends ever finished the show so i have noone to back me up
It was Fangs who was seeing Midge and who was blamed for her murder. Joaquin covered up Jason Blossom's murder and ran away before he could be caught/charged. Presumably he's in juvie for something else

i recommend doing more unhinged recaps of tv shows and reality shows it’s AMAZING
appreciate your incredible contribution to the rivernation, even if you had to let your brain kinda rot for it... obsessed with your dedication to meltonsweep. i havent finished this yet but you mistaking kevin's boyfriends for one another and just randomly assigning each one different plotline than they have is very real and i respect it

As someone who can't stand Riverdale after season 1, I'm OBSESSED with these recaps. A nice little fever dream for the girlies
I made chicken noodle soup from scratch while i was watching this and i kept having to stop to laugh at your commentary, excellent work
I discovered your channel because of your Riverdale breakdowns haha thank you so much for making these and can’t wait for the final breakdown. Binging all of your other videos until then! ❤
I was so thoroughly excited to see this sequel video pop up on my feed i LOVE these riverdale recaps because I watched it RELIGIOUSLY in high school but fell off because this show is insane so this is filling in so many gaps for me. ily youre doing gods work
the characters: shorten Griffons and Gargoyles to G&G me: gungeons and gragons
It’s the way I was literally looking for a long video to watch while doing my work. THIS WAS PERFECT TIMING!! I love this and I love you for sacrificing your sanity for it😭

I was losing hope but it’s finally here 🙏🏼🙏🏼 thank u for your service queen
I think that the way they still gave Luke Perry a ‘normal’ death away from the mess of the plot was just idk. I never LOVED riverdale but i still felt so sad when he passed from seeing him for the first two seasons.
no but riverdale is so iconic if you get it you get it. it is so camp and fun and insane and we need more shows like it honestly
all of this sounds like a fever dream. like someone took nyquil and this was their dream
Omg I just went back and watched that scene where they sing “here’s to Ronnie..and Archie. And Betty” I’m in stitches, I forgot how funny it was
thank you for the increased production value in recap part 2! it's a lot easier to follow these bonkers events when i can see which character you're talking about
I don't watch or even like the show, but the "everyone promised to come back, but next year only Jughead came back, showing everyone else moved on" physically hurt. Or maybe it's just my abandonment issues idk
The cackling I cackled at so many of your SUPER mic-drops. 😂😂😂 Have I ever watched an entire episode of Riverdale? Nope. Did I watch the entire part 1 of this and am hunkered down watching part 2? Yep.
