Chapter Ninety-Three: Dance of Death

Since season 3 this is the frist time to feel like I'm watching riverdale again, it's really a shame what happened in the last 2 seasons.

You know, I wouldn't even make the effort writing a review for the episode being a lazy recycle, absolutely hollow nothingness at the throat of oblivion. Everybody should be able to see that.

Nothing is happening, while the same time everything feels rushed. There is no plot, or arcs, or characters. Everything is like a revolving door: this side is this, that side is that, no.transition.

And yes, Mr. Roberto decided he needs an overarching villain instead of the gang solving mysteries, and the problems with Riverdales, revealing its nasty secrets. Nah, a one-off cartoon-villain will serve better for minimal effortists.

But that Mr. Roberto plays JKRowling, and not even off-show, is now bothering even me. What percentage of the population of the Archieverse is LGBT+? 60%? 90%? 100%? 666%? Do I feel heterophobia can become a term because of this garbage?

And in case you'd say Hiram is not from a cartoon let me remind you he has a Big Red Button on his desk, which can blow up anything he want in town!

Besides the v*rchie stuff, it was a solid episode. I enjoyed most of it. Few problems i have: us barchie shippers keep getting baited, this soon will turn around and bite the writers in the ass, veronica is pushing this relationship with archie WAY too fast, lastly, veronica needs help, she's starting to become betty... archie prob won't be there for betty at all next episode, even tho they are "best friends." i can say i lost all hope, and i'm "excited" for another musical episode that's going to get low ratings because we all hate them!

This was one of the best episodes ever and very well written in s5, I loved veronica's storyline and her big performance and camila mendes acting was as always over the top, loved it so much ❤. Also loved the bathtub scene for varchie, we waited so long for that and their intimate moments, varchie was just amazing this episode along with bughead, I missed their duo solving crimes together and also tabitha, toni, fangs, etc, were all really great this episode . #varchie #bughead #choni endgames forever. ❤❤❤

It's decent. It had intense moments and the energy of the episode moved along well. It felt more like a unique episode like how every ep of season 1 and 2 of most shows tend to be initially. It wasn't perfect and felt a little rushed. Let's not forget though, it's based on a comic book, so realism should not be expected.
