Description: While navigating the troubled waters of romance, school and family, Archie (K.J. Apa) and his gang become entangled in dark Riverdale mysteries.

Review: Season 1 left us with a new mystery: who shot Archie’s father? And it’s not the only crime he commits. The so-called “black hood” is on a killing-spree and the question is: whodunit?
Like the first season, each episodes ends with tension and you find a reason to click on the next episode. And the mystery is still strong in the series. But some storylines don’t work as well. The ‘Red Circle’ is just very unbelievable and Veronica as a mobster daughter just doesn’t work. And that thing with Kevin, meeting up with strangers in the woods. What was that all about?
Betty and Jughead are still the couple to love. They are the interesting characters on the show. So is Cheryl, but her dialogue is sometimes very annoying. No one talks like that!
Now, “Riverdale” has become more of a guilty-pleasure and season 2 isn’t as strong as season 1. Especially because it’s not as surprising anymore. And Archie is the main character, but he is just not that interesting and kind of stupid actually.
At this point, I’m not sure if I will check out season 3. Somethings are just too ridiculous.
