Rude Dude Take Downs

SEASON FOUR IS HERE!! AND WE WOULD BE MORE EXCITED IF WE WEREN’T SO SAD!!

Today’s episode marks the passing of Luke Perry on March 4th 2019, which produced this masterful piece of tribute. I have never cried so hard and so long watching a single episode of television... and I don’t think I ever will.

It’s fourth of July weekend, and what seemed like a fun weekend of camping and celebration takes a dark turn when Archie gets a call that his father has died. Because of the holiday, Fred can’t be moved to Riverdale until after July 4th weekend! Riddled with guilt, Archie and the gang set out on a mission to bring Fred home for the holidays, and process their grief along the way.

RIP Luke Perry. You will be missed.

WE DID IT GUYS! Another season in the can! Can you believe it? I sure as hell can’t!

Things are coming to a head this episode, as season finale’s tend to do! The gang all meets up with the mastermind behind the great downfall of Riverdale... Penelope Blossom?! Turns out, selling a little girl to be a chil bride and then killing her only son does a lot to a person! And We find out Penelope is responsible for baiting Hal into being the Redhood, and she manipulated Chic (Jason Lite) into being the Gargoyle King?! Jesus, what a reveal. But there’s one last thing for Archie, Ron, Jug and Betty to do... Survive the Night!!!

Also, Cheryl busts out of the Farm with Alice’s help!

Will all that food Penelope cooked for dinner go bad? How has Jason’s corpse stayed so fresh? WHO KEEPS PLACING ALL THESE BONES?! Probably, DCJ BAYBE, and THE BANK! BECAUSE BONES ARE OUR MONEYYYYYYY!!!

WOWE WOWE EVERYONE! The shark has been JUMPED and we are HEREEE!!!

This... is the best episode... Of any TV show ever made. We got CULTS WITH ORGANS, we got SERIAL KILLERS WITH HOOK HANDS, we got BAREKNUCKLE BRAWLING TEENS VS ADULTS SANCTIONED BY ADULTS?! WHAT A TIME!!

Well, I guess we’re picking up from where we left off last time with Betty, and she’s living at the Farm, confused about Evelyn’s dialisis machine her husband father gave her. But Alice tells Betty she has the serial killer gene, and Edgar decieds to hypnotize her into really beating herself up for pushing Polly down the stairs one time. Also, the queer four (TM) is VERY secretive about their emotial pain scars infected with sepsis. Meanwhile Jughead, all alone, has to sleuth out what happened to Betty on Prom Night, but ends up finding Ethel trapped in the sex bunker hiding from children. Also, Ron decideds to trick her dad into committing crimes (not hard) by having Archie accost him, naked and steaming, and challenge him to a fight. And Hiram accepts, because he’s NEVER SOFT ALWAYS HARD SO ARE WE WTF?! 

Will Polly ever forgive Betty for pushing her down the stairs? Will Kevin die of sepsis? WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED IN THIS EPISODE?! No, no, and WE DON’T KNOW!!!!!!

SONGS OF FIRE AND ICE, PROM NIGHT WON’T BE SO NICE!! We may be winding down the season, but the show is ramping up! We got severed hands, hook hands, any kind of hands you can think off! And it’s all thanks to our good friend DCJ!

We start by coming upon the prison bus wreckage that took Hal, and Betty doesn’t believe that he died. But FP assures her, he counted SIXS heads! Betty’s unconvinced and decides to see if there’s ANY way she can find her dad. But Jughead instead tries to rope her into the G&G gospel by the Gargoyle King himself! We’re lucky Jug is was a hardcore Game Master cause this shit is undecypherable! Meanwhile, Veronica sets Archie up with more tournament fights, but neglects to weight him for his weight class, so he’s gotta loose 6 whole pounds in 4 days (YIKES!). He’s also juggling his mom’s “friend from Sarah Florence”, because she’s got Naval connections and can get him a good scholarship if she sees him fight (the same day as the tournament? UH OH)! Also, Prom’s happening, and Cheryl CAN’T be Prom Queen because resident Senior Citizen Karen, Evelyn, FORBIDS IT!

Should Veronica have invested more on Mad Dog as a boxing agent? Will Betty get Edgar to FULLY strip for her? WILL DCJ EVER PUBLISH HIS GROUP CHATS WITH THE CORE FOUR?? Yes, WE HOPE SO GET IT FROM YOUR DAD HUSBAND, and WE CAN ONLY PRAY!

TODAYS THE DAY!! LETS GET READY TO RUMBLE!!!!

We got a wild one today everyone, so strap in for a good time! What’s not a good time is that Jellybean is missing, and the Jones family must now go on some sick quests to save her. Orchestrated by Curts, they must reveal their secrets, pillage the tavern, and battle the cyclopes! We don’t know what that means but... We can promise that you‘ll have a good time. Meanwhile, Betty is digging through Evelyn’s past an finds out she may be a bit older than she’s letting on (that haggard tired woman?! No!). Also, Archie’s trying to make ammends for his toxic masculinity with the help of Ron; and Josie’s making her play out of Riverdale and into Katy Keene! We’ll miss you Josie <3.

Will the Jones Family save Jellybean from danger? Will Ms Weiss ever get it together enough to be good to these children? WILL BETTY SAVE THE GOOD TWIN?! Yes, lol no, and YES BUT WHO’S ACTUALLY A GOOD TWIN NOW?!

Things are getting FIZZY in Riverdale! EVERYONE’S DOING DRUGS WHAT A NIGHTMARE!

Jughead is looking into the murder of Baby Teeth (or Brandon Morris if you’re respectful!) and works with his dad to figure out why there was a matchbook from the Maple Club in throat? While going to interrogat Penelope, a customer starts foaming at the mouth! What is assumed to be an isolated incident turns into a reoccurring trend. Betty also STILL doesn’t trust Edgar, and she consults with her serial killer father to figure out how to make her mother not crazy (what a twist!). Meanwhile, Archie wants to honour Baby Teeth by fighting in a tournament against Elio, so he enlists Ron (Riverdale’s #1 predator) to help him show him what’s what! Also, Toni’s pissed at Betty, but she fucks so... It’s fine?

Will FP and Jughead find two Fizzle Rocks junkies to fall in love? Will Betty make her mother not terrified of her? HOW DOES FANGS KNOW BABY TEETH?! No, LOL OF COURSE NOT, and I DUNNO?!?!

So this episode is not called the Master... SUE ME!!

But today, we dive deep into the systems of oppression that govern our cities. We learn how a gand turns into a militarized police force in order to dowel out vigilante justice to people who have not been convicted of crimes! This episode was a little bit of copaganda, but hey... We saw Curts push Jughead out a window!

We also see Archie saving all his friends from Juvie, and giving them a place to fight for fun Instead of for old men! Ron‘s also trying to get her parents back together with an elaborate trap, and Betty coaxes Cheryl into being her spy at the Farm. FUN!

Will Cheryl ever find a better shade of red to love? Will Ron stop flying in food goods from Magnolias? WILL BABYTEETH GET THAT DOLLAR FROM THE TOOTH FAIRY?! Yes, no, and NO RIP!

Kevin’s back to his old shenanigans and directing the HEATHERS musical, and he’s making some WILD points to the parents! But he sends out the casting notices, and he’s going REAL method. Cheryl’s still reeling from her break up with Tone, and she’s SO MEAN TO HER!! Archie and Josie are having trouble trying to figure out exactly “what“ they are. And Reggie’s just trying MATTER to Ron! Meanwhile, Betty’s still trying to take down this cult, Jughead’s trying to dismantle his mothers rug operation, and Ron’s mad her parents are getting divorced. Don’t know why Ron’s mad though, they literally tried to murder each other!

Now that Josie has the lead, will she get more meaningful scenes? Will Cheryl and Toni get back together? WHAT IS HIRAM GONNA DO WITH THOSE EGGS?! No, of course, and LEAVE THEM!!!

Get your party hats out everyone, cause it’s FP’s 50th BIRTHDAY!!

Gladys has something special planned for the party, and she needs Jughead to write a speech. He’s a little sceptical of her motives, but he doesn’t have the time to think about that right now. There are still SO MANY ”Kill the Red Paladin” quest cards Hiram sent out to drugged up G&G players (whoopsy). So they hold a end of quest, King of the Hill... Mountain event to get rid of the quest! Meanwhile, Reggie has feelings? And he wants to be Ron’s equal partner in her business. But Ron (famously) hates men who think, so she doesn’t let him. Also, there’s trouble with Choni when Cheryl doesn’t let Tone have a life?? Like GET A GRIP!!

Will Archie become the King of the Mountain? Why is FP the only parent who’s 50? WHY DID TONI BLIND FOLD CHERYL?! Yes, beats us, and cause it’s kinky??????
