I'm leaning toward Archie's mom being a sister to either Mr or Mrs Blossom, but your theory is more fun.

Yeah it's just really unclear. Jason and Cheryl are twins, if he is a junior so is she. I can buy it because she is head cheerleader, but it's all pretty vague.

Yes! That's exactly the post I'm referring to!

I only want Sabrina on the show if she's a supernatural being. If they can't do that here, they should spin her off.

I'd actually be surprised if nobody had thought of it til now. Bughead Forever!

I think the better question is why you DON'T!

Jughead and Betty's outfits were colour-coordinated more than once this episode too.

It's the maple syrup.

Was Hermione Hiram's accountant? Because I think he went to jail for white collar crime. Maybe hiring Hermione really isn't the smart move.

Maybe he's got a bald spot.

Yeah, I thought the pilot said that he was bumped up to varsity from junior varsity because of his summer getting in shape, empty spot on team due to Jason, etc. - unless I just completely misunderstood that (which is entirely possible). So I can't see him being a team captain either already.

"asexual, a…sexual… a sexual… Yes, we get it! Jughead will be a sexual being!"

I can actually see this in my head: someone trying to explain what "asexual" is to a room full of CW writers and the concept just not registering with any of them.

Calling shipper name now: Bughead!

I really feel like these kids have got to get their shit together and start solving mysteries as a group on a regular basis. 1 mystery every 3-4 episodes.

Gotta say, getting episodes early even when you're not the official reviewer yet seems like a sweet perk to being a tv critic.

It's a whole other level of Sister-Wife!

*fingers crossed for Hot Dog and Vegas appearances*

By the way, I totally thought of you and your "inappropriate Cheryl" post from last week when Veronica called Jason "crazy handsome" (aside: NO) and then Cheryl replied "the handsomest!"

The Archie/Grundy fizzle seems like a very fast response to fan feedback. I wonder if they did reshoots. I would have thought they'd have at least half in the can by now.
