That's what happens when people try to tell a story that isn't theirs without consulting the community they're talking about. The writers end up using their own limited understanding, which is often also prejudiced if they're dealing with a marginalised group. The writer will only have the experience they learned from other media prejudiced media, so those tropes will come up over and over again. Like, the fact that Kevin was cruising for sex from the age of 16 in the woods? Made me fucking howl. The writers genuinely think gay guys still have to run around in the woods like it's the 80's in the Midwest. If a real gay guy was knocking around the set or empowered to make any calls over the script, he probably would've vetoed that in favour of awkward car hook-ups or meeting up at someone's house, because that's what most gay teens do these days- a lot like straight teens. But there wasn't and so we end up with this cartoonish character of Kevin, who looks, acts and sounds like the 'sassy gay friend' or uwu fanfic characterisation of a gay guy that all these women thought they were going to tame and domesticate as a 'gay bestie' at college, and the male writers worried were going to hit on them.

What also really sucks for Jughead's sexuality erasure, is that asexual doesn't mean sex repulsed. Some asexual will very happily have sex with their partner, for their partner. Just because they don't experience sexual attraction doesn't mean they won't have sex full stop. Legitimately, all it would have taken is a conversation or even a nod that Jughead is fine with having sex with his partners, since he is romantically attached. That's it. It showed Roberto either was just lazy, probably, or he legitmately doesn't understand asexuals.

@@bobbieparry646 Well yeah it's possible you're asexual honestly XD Just wanted to say like it's a spectrum (you might be collecting spectrums XD no but actually like almost everything in life is a spectrum), and so there is other identities like I'm demi sexual, so I can only feel sexual attraction towards those I have big feelings for for me even only romantic (but not all demi sexual it just have to be strong feelings/link), and so I experience sexuality in a kind of way bc in a relation with someone I am attracted to I'm still more on the ace spec than others could be like sex even with those I'm attracted to is just one more activity I can do with them, I enjoy it and enjoy making them feel good, but even though I can feel horny for them it's not like I ever feel I deeply "need" sex kinda. And I know others demi sexual are "kinda like not ace once it's with those they have feelings for", like my partner is also demi sexual but once it's someone he has big feelings for and his attracted to he's living the attraction in a non ace way XD Don't know if it's clear but yeah just look into all that and talk with people that "know" where they are in all that and you might understand yourself a bit better ^^ I know I felt relieved to understand what I was bc before I was just kinda lost like I just didn't knew if I could feel sexual attraction or romantic attraction etc, and it's not it would have been a pb for me to not do, just I was constantly unsure about it all, and knowing I was demi sexual has been "usefull" in a way bc I know I can do things with someone I don't love without being disguted etc and just to make others feel good and I don't know I find it valuable to know XD

The thing is, that could work. Internalized and structured(?) homophobia is a thing and specially gay people doesn't notice how they're being somewhat homophobic themselves, because sometimes it's something that's so common on our society that we don't see the problematics of it. So, if the show actually talked about this, it could be a great way to show how homophobia is something so rooted in our society. Cheryl could learn from Toni or any other gay character that she shouldn't do or say somethings. That could even teach the audience how not to act. But nah, she's just a jerk

Betty: Girl next door, the one who strives to do good, a friendly hand, a good person. Enjoys the small things in life. Loves her town and its citizens. Riverdale: What if we made her a bitch. Veronica: Passionate, if a bit brash. A tad materialistic, but her heart is bigger than her temper. Driven, unstoppable. "Can't do, sweetie" is not an acceptable answer. Riverdale: what if we made her a bitch. Cheryl: a cartoonishly evil mean girl who is known to be more than her nefarius deeds, in extremely rare occasions. Wants what she doesn't have, discards everything she uses. A total bitch you really like because you don't have to deal with hear. Riverdale: the exact same thing, but somehow it's not fun anymore. So just a bitch. Reggie: a dick you can't get rid off. Riverdale: he's kind of fine. He's barely in the series, so the writters don't really do stuff to ruin him. He's kind of a better person, somehow. Jughead: Aloof, but with a good heart. Loyal. Independent. Enjoys eating quite a lot and his truest love is tasty food. A no-nonsense kind of pal who still takes every opportunity he has to make a joke. Has a well defined moral code and, while he's strives for undertandment, he will not stand idle and let bad things occur if he has a chance to stop them. Riverdale: what if we made him a bitch. Archie: clumsy, but good hearted. A lovefool, a redhaired golden-retriever. Loves his friends and loves music and loves fun because the greatest thing to do in this life is to love. Guitars. Cars. Movies and comics too. The average guy who somehow fits in everywhere he goes. He'll just break a lot of stuff in the process. Roberto Aguirre Sacaza: what if we made him MY bitch?

Back in season one I actually thought Archie waa gonna turn out to be a Blossom like an illegitemate child or maybe secret triplet. Not that everyone with red hair has to be related but they were making SUCH a big deal about it. Everytime he entered a room someone would be like "Look, its Archie! He is hot, AND he's ginger! Ginger stallion! Ginger hunk meaty meaty meaty red ginger Archie with his red hair! Did you know that about him? I don't think you did." And with the Blossoms leaning into being The Red Haired Family so hard. And Cheryl in her grief mistaking Archie for Jason. I guess perhaps it was a... Red Herring, hehe. But I think given this writing teams history it might just be a plot point they wanted to do but abandoned.

I respectfully disagree because of something your probably not thinking about. They were disregarding their actors comfort when they could have done this is other ways like indoors or on even just a less cold day or earlier so its warmer, even just putting them by a fire or giving them blankets. Like he dosen't act on this show for fun and they want him to strip naked in the freezing woods for no reason when they could film on a better day. Like why did it need to be 3 am on that day that was "Particularly cold". I feel like he had the right to refuse to shoot that day. He might get paid alot but it's still a job and an employer is still asking him to freeze in the woods nearly naked and it's not like he can quit without getting sued. Remember directors nearly always do scenes multiple times ontop of failed takes it's not usually infact almost never one good take and there done. Plus they would probably be rushed on set because they would be losing the lighting they wanted. You would probably refuse too lol

I can't believe that Cole got away with refusing to do that scene in the woods, causing the writers to change the entire course of the show for the season. If I'd been the other 3, I'd have been like, if Cole isn't doing it, we aren't doing it. Write something different.

I think that Hiram Lodge being the Black Hood or being behind it would've made more sense. He was trying to reduce the value of the town to sell it off. That would make perfect sense. They've missed so many chances to have an interesting and clever show.

The show's erasure of an asexual character didn't cause people to be "openly aphobic online." The mob did that; don't blame the show. They would have been just as dismissive of a character's lack of interest in sex if they were part of their ship as they are with a character's heterosexual orientation. Cheryl is/was hetero in the comics & in S1. But there was such demand to get Beronica together, which they had said they'd never do (until they did) because it wasn't canon, that I think they made Cheryl lesbian & gave viewers Porny,- I mean Choni,- to distract from Beronica. People shipped Archie & Jughead. They do this with ACTORS, too, not just their characters. That's what annoys me most. There's no respect for people's boundaries. All that matters is the fans' head canons. It seems nobody can just be heterosexual anymore. That's not trendy. Also, there's no reason why 2 women who are both attracted to women can't be friends with each other WITHOUT being sexually involved. I've had very close, lasting friendships w/ 2 friends, all of us single & either lesbian or bi, & I've never wanted to date either & vice versa. There's almost no respect for deep, loving friendships & non-sexual touch anymore. EVERY relationship gets sexualized.

I tried to listen to this while I was doing some construction work. When it got to the part of you explaining the timeline jumps and inconsistencies I had to focus, stop what I was doing, and then wait until my lunch break to sit and watch and try to understand what the hell just happened lmao. I felt like an eldritch horror protagonist uncovering impossible truths not meant for mankind to understand.

Riverdale is just Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa turning his The Sims 2-playthrough into a TV-show.

i think the adult casting in riverdale is hilarious. people often think adult casting is a bad thing - it's not. It's pretty necessary when making shows FOR teenagers because teenagers aren't going to "look up to" people their own age. Buffy did it fairly well even though it was funny sometimes how old the characters like Cordelia and Xander looked. having older actors play teens isn't a problem, the problem is when you cast older actors and give them storylines for someone in their 20s. The Vampire Diaries was also terrible for this!
