I just watched the Shawshank redemption again and the obvious reference is when Archie goes to Juvie it’s called Shankshaw and the warden is the warden from Shawshank. But after seeing a scene in the Shawshank where a guard is on the toilet reading a comic and it’s an Archie comic about Jughead I just thought that was really funny 😅
I finally got around to the last season of Riverdale.
I'm on season 7 episode 8, I'm not going to lie. I'm digging the 1950s vibe of Riverdale, which is a sentence I thought I would never say.
Considering I used to hold a torch to the modern timeline of Riverdale, claiming seasons 1 to 3 were the best.
However, watching more of Riverdale after how season 1 was the best. The show got more unhinged, violent, and insane.
First of all, the mafia, Biker gang wars, juvenile jail, the blackhood, the G&G game, toxic friendships, relationships, and not to mention the seven-year timeskip and awkwardness with the friendships.
friendships changing, relationships with strangers, hated the writing of Veronica, needing to be with somebody. For God's sake, writers, let her be independent.
But things got truly insane with the alternative universe Rivervale, bringing in that annoying English Pervical.
Multiverse, timelines, futures, and past only for all the characters who have been through too much BS to get sent back to 1955 with no memories of their previous timeline lives, which is probably for the better, to be honest.
To talk about season 7, I love the 1950s timeline, but i hate the way they wrote Veronica as this selfish, using teenage girl.
I understand why Angel Tabitha had to make Jughead forget to be honest. He was sounding like a madman out of context.
Honestly, I cried with my mom when they basically broke up for timeline's sake and universe stuff.
I did like modern Tabitha and Jughead's relationship as a couple; it was like a better version of bughead, but still wasn't my favorite.
I could see the cracks in their relationship, but they also seemed to be in their own world, especially since they weren't around each other much.
Which, I guess, I'm kinda glad they broke up, but not the mind wipe kinda.
In the 1950s timeline, I don't think I didn't notice the buildup with Betty & Archie, especially my favorite ship out of all of Jughead's relationships.
Vughead is the best, in my opinion, even though I've only seen them together in two episodes.
I have not liked one straight ship in this show, not bughead or Archie & Veronica, that was a love-hate kind of thing.
The only gay ship I honestly still love is Cheryl & Toni fr lol
I wish I could see more Vughead relationship in the 1955 timeline, but they broke things off because of Jughead's writing in comic books and the way she saw his stories.
Which is completely understandable, I understand why the writers broke them off, but it was too quick if they're set up as a couple.
Honestly, I hope Veronica and Jughead get back together on better terms.
because, at the time. Damn, she was down bad for Jughead. She did anything to help him or hang out with him, even if she wasn't into it.
They have more similar interests, but I'm gushing too much about how they get along as a potential couple.
Especially the way their living situations are, Jughead lives alone with hot dog in an old trailer train, as he called it, and Veronica's parents kicked her out of LA. from her own manor or house and forced to live in Pembroke alone with nobody looking after her to see if she is okay.
I can see why Vughead was building up, and I love it, and if I don't see more, I'm reading fanfics or at the very least role-playing with an AI chat box.
Love to know your opinions, btw, on ships and season 7 and what ship y'all favorite.
Riverdale has a realy good soundtrack like I literally have so many songs I listen to that I got from this show and that’s not even counting the musical episodes or where the actually sing in the show
