We end Riverdale season 2 with a fight for the town followed by a smaltzy finale. We discuss the 47 plotlines happening in chapter 34, Cheryl being a superhero, Jugheads failed sacrifice, the Cooper women fighting back, Hermione being used by Hiram, Ethel once again not being a character, FP being fair weather, and the big cliffhanger.

Next week we start the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina with episode 1!
