As a kid who grew up watching 91210 and 8 Seconds, it got me in the feels too. That being said, the episode felt nothing like Riverdale, so it was fun to return to the lunacy I had been missing all summer.
I loved tonight's episode. Classic Riverdale. All over the place with the tropes and storylines coming out of nowhere (hi Reggie), the show lying to me about Jughead's intelligence, pretty women being super pretty and Archie just suddenly playing football again. Camila Mendes can't really sing, but that did not change her little song and dance number maybe being the greatest thing I have ever seen on the CW...
Next week Betty's sister is a suicide bomber. God I love this show.
