#when in reality it's an incredible pulpy anti-fascist text questioning the role of authority using those aesthetics for a larger purpose

feel like pure shit, just want her back
#james talks
#riverdale
#miss the whole crew really but Betty especially bc Lili was so magnificent
#god as perfect as the finale was (and it really was one of the greatest finales ever) i wish we had gotten another season
#they had as good a run as a show on that network could hope for but there are few shows on there that eclipsed the network like Riverdale
#like the list includes like. Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and Gossip Girl. and ig The Vampire Diaries. and that's it.
#(that list is for shows almost exclusively produced by the CW. CXG DID have other producing companies but it was largely the CW).
#no show will ever quite be like Riverdale ever again and no show will ever reach the heights it did.
#especially not on their shoestring CW budget.
#like honestly i just need more Riverdale in my life.
#like RAS and the writing team found such a great way to turn their weaknesses into strengths.
#as an article on the show once said [paraphrased]: it was a great show that was really good at pretending to be bad.
#even now nobody gets the show like i do.
#everyone thinks it's some silly little show about crazy shit with crazy plotlines and pretty lighting and aesthetics but no substance—
#when in reality it's an incredible pulpy anti-fascist text questioning the role of authority using those aesthetics for a larger purpose
#but i'll save the real analysis for whenever i get around to actually making the Riverdale video essay i need in my life
#unless Quinton Reviews or SuperEyepatchWolf beat me to it first. they're the only people who i think will actually understand the show.
#like SuperEyepatchWolf's video on the show is already pretty fun even if it's a little dismissive of the substance of the show—
#(tbf to him it only covered up until the S05 mid-season finale and S06 hadn't released yet)
#but like he at least feels like he gets the spirit of the show. especially with the wrestling comparison.
#and i hope i don't need to explain why Quinton would get it.
#anyway. i need the Riverdale crew back.
