Riverdale

And as always, spoilers ahead. 1. Workers of Riverdale, Unite. I'm glad Archie has found his place as an agitator alongside Tabitha. While I wish she was doing ...

Did you know the original version of “I’ve Been Working on the Railroad” was a minstrel song and that the verses about Dinah were from a DIFFERENT, racist 19th century song? OK. Maybe not ghosts but he does hear the voices of Rivervale. If this means we get to hear that narrator Jughead again, and maybe Mr. Cypher, I am very excited. You want to see him get free and it looks like Moose was starting to get through but then it all crashes down around him, he steals a pacifier, and then Moose inexplicably joins Kevin on the “let’s threaten Archie” meeting that caps off the episode. What I DO care about is how much of a stinker Reggie is, how deeply unsettling that Reggie Dummy was, and how Jughead seems to be able to hear not just everyone around him but also GHOSTS! What did you all think of the episode? I dunno about you all but I got a real kick out of seeing Percival all dressed up as season 1 Jughead as he approached the spooky door, propping it open with a newspaper he, I guess, mentally brought in? Furthermore, this stupid “I have darkness in me and it’s literally going to kill me and it’s because I beaned a cat that one time after being emotionally manipulated and abused by my serial killer father” explanation is being thrown by the wayside. Look. If I had written this thought at the halfway point of “Blue Collar,” it would’ve just been a string of expletives and the written equivalent of me throwing my hands in the air in exasperation. He’s gonna learn what it means to mess with a bunch of serpents. That’s right; the union boys are back and voted to strike after someone lost a foot and then Percival didn’t give two shits about him. Archie is the face of the resistance while Tabitha is the brains and the coordinator. I’ve been working on the railroad, just to pass the time away.
