This comment reminds me of the time I went to see a play at a local university about a composer (can't remember which one), and it just got sillier and sillier and at some point the actors weren't even trying not to giggle onstage. It was the best play I ever saw.
I agree with your take on Archie. He's definitely been the highlight of this season for me. Can't help but smile when he's on screen because of how goofy his character is. Alot better than fighting bears and Hiram lodge
So when leonardo dicaprio does it , he gets an oscar.. but when sweat abs archie does it, it's cringe. Give the boy some slack, he stopped a meteor with his freaking abs.
All I've gotten from this season is that 50s Betty is horny as hell and Archie is dim but sweet. It almost feels like the show got renewed for a final season but the writers had already done so many crazy sh*t that they don't know what to do as a send off for it. Man I am going to miss watching Alex slowly lose his mind each time a new season of this show airs as there's just something so special about these vids that never fail to make me laugh/smile.
From what I remember the show runner wanted to do a lot of decades hoping for the final season, so they'll start in the mid 50s then to the 60s, 70s, and so on and so on, but my guess is that CW said "NO"
The biggest praise i can say about Alex is that he managed to watch every single Riverdale episode thay consists of 7 seasons and 128 episodes so far for the sake of our entertainment in this review 😂😂
Tbh this season isn't that bad, of course it's nothing like the first or second season but interesting nevertheless. Also, Archie finally has become the best character of the show.
The comic panic is a reference to an actual comic book panic in the 1950s that led to multiple congressional hearings on juvenile delinquency and comics. The result was a number of publications shutting down, moving underground, or taking self censorship that made the Hayes Code look relaxed. Archie Comics was ironically one of the only companies to float by pretty much unscathed because it material was so light and fluffy. It was also the last publication to drop the Comics Code Authority censorship stamp…in 2011.
Me: "I haven't watched Riverdale since season 4, but hey, let's what Alex is saying about it" Alex: "time travelling chrono angel Tabitha" Me: "Jesus Christ this show"
Alex teaching us that silliness is the key to surviving 7 seasons of Riverdale. Seriously, this feels like the puppet episode of Community mixed with Potter Puppet Pals. I love that the recap formats get more absurd as the show gets duller
As someone who was a fan of the original Archie comics, I am so conflicted on this season. Cause like this was the Riverdale I wanted when it first came out years ago. This is the characterization I wanted, just in a modern setting. But after establishing themselves as their own thing and having their own ridiculous highs and lows, I accepted the new Riverdale for what it was…..only for them to give me the version I expected years ago in its final season??? I definitely prefer this version of the cast but it feels weird after seeing Archie stop a meteor with his abs.
In the same boat. Loved Archiue in elementary school and this is what I thought the show was gonna be. Being given this at the tail end is like... why?
Me neither, the first season at least told a mostly coherent story, but afterwards, it just descended into chaos, like the writers were blatantly making things up as they went along.
@@trinaq Agree. And even season 1 was insufferable for me. I kind of watched most of the 3 or 4 first seasons just because were aired before what I really wanted to watch and not a single time became engaged, neither to the story nor to any of the characters
Oh my gosh these puppets are PERFECT to send off Riverdale! I have no idea if it’s more stressful or less stressful to dress up puppets and film them, rather than doing animation, but THANK YOU Alex, for the time and effort!
Betty's story sounds like its simply a retelling of the urban legend of the woman who refused to take her hair out of a bun and a black widow spider laid eggs in her hair and ate into her brain.
This video was top tier ! I don't know what I liked the most : the perfectly accurately crafted puppets, the parents being pokemon plushies, the nicknames or the Alex plushie narrator with his spoon taped to his hands 😂
Riverdale final season be like “ hey you know that thing you’ve been wanting this show to be since we announced it but we went on a completely route? Apparently we can do it!”
I value how much work you put into your avatar animations, Alex, I love them, they're my little friends :) But, I have to say your friend's puppets are beautiful little creations, absolutely gorgeous! The products of so much painstaking work! They deserve their own channel.
I think the problem now is that we went through several seasons of Riverdale being off the wall insane and unhinged with it's writing and they choose now, the final season, to tone everything down and be normal 😂.
I approve of Plushie Puppet Recaps and want more of it in other episodes 😆 Also, can't wait to see Riverdale end like Newhart and it was all a dream Dylan Sprouse had
Cole Sprouse plays Jughead not Dylan. Dylan was retired from acting I believe, which is a shame because it would be neat if he played an alternate reality version of Jughead that they used instead of Cole. Or are you referring to a show Dylan did and I overlooked that?
@@tigerlord9302 I know.... That's the joke 😉 I know Cole plays Jughead but maybe Dylan sees Riverdale as some fever dream, tells Cole and Cole just advises him to lay off the coffee or something 😆
Would love for Riverdale to end that way but I LOVE the usual animation style! I don't know why but puppets have put me off since I was a kid, I almost couldn't watch this episode.
Dylan Sprouse somehow found even worse movies and is in the After franchise and a Beautiful Disaster which both somehow make the writing of this show seems great 😂
Fun Fact: Cole Sprouse had just finished binge-watching The Twilight Zone (1959) when he auditioned, which inspired him to read his character's narration in the style of Rod Serling.
Except, here’s the difference, The Twilight Zone(1959) was a good show that told good stories Riverdale is trying to do that and be like that and utterly failing at it.
This show has to be the most random insane thing created. I find it hilarious they legit did a timeskip, AND TOOK IT BACK AND MADE THEM HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS.
If you had told me 10 years ago that there would be a talented man with a lovely voice making us laugh who is wrapping their mind around a ‘Riverdale’ adaptation, I’d go back to watching ‘Pretty Little Liars’ or something.
Such a great video! Please do more of them in this kinda style! I love your animations, but this was truly crazy! i mean the psyduck plushie? Adorable! Sending much love
Tbh this season has made me laugh the most and as someone that used to be a die hard fan I will say I definitely will miss how crazy the show can get and waiting for Alex to say exactly what we are all thinking 🙏🏾thank you for covering this wild crazy wacky show🤣
So I was at a Comicon recently and met one of the designers on the Riverdale. They proceeded to tell me some stories specifically about the actor K.J Appa (Archie) going into Granville, Vancouver to the bars, getting DAF and hitting on people's girlfriends because he is ''famous''; as a result the makeup department was well known for attempting to hide his black eyes. LOL ;p
"please pardon my silliness" ... *5 Seconds later* ... I am dying of laughter cause somehow you've demolished the 4th wall in our room and I cannot pardon anything 😂😂
At first glance, I wondered why Alex had suspended a piece of fruit on some cardboard and then I realized what it was supposed to be...🤣🤣🤣 ...silliness greatly appreciated, no need to apologize Alex!!
Episode 5 is actually a reference to the Steven King film Creepshow. From the vibe of the narrator to the weird filters. It was honestly a pretty good adaptation
This is the only way I know anything about Riverdale. I have never seen the show, just all of these videos. I can't imagine the show being better than this, and I will only miss the show because there will be no more videos about it. But, since I watch every video you make, I am sure I will never be bored! 😊
OMG, I remember that urban legend about the beehive hairdo! The story always went that this girl got a beehive hairdo, and didn't want it for several weeks, and that's when the spiders settled in. So funny that Riverdale did a throwback to an old urban legend like that.
I honestly was expecting them to do this retro vibe for maybe five episodes, half way through the season and we haven't had a single mention of the comet since like episode two. I'm going to crack up laughing if they genuinely just end on them as teens in the past and never address getting back to the present day (well, what should've been 2025 given their graduation year) again.
Season 1 and 2 were so enjoyable to watch. After Season 3 it was a rollercoaster to hell but as the show went crazier the more I sympathized with the characters or rather the actors and actresses. I have a special place in my heart for Madeleine, Vanessa and Lili🥺 I really hope to see more projects from them (or hopefully some collaborations!) As Cheryl was my favorite character, I think she lost her "bite" with each season. I mean in the first two seasons she was this huge mean girl who went softer by the time to the point where she was this almost shy person? Oh boy and the last episode...I don't know how to feel about it but I just love the dynamic of the crew...
I gave up actually watching Riverdale around season 3, but I've been enjoying your recaps. Though, I must say, the EC Comics-inspired episode (Tales from the Crypt, Vault of Horror, Haunt of Fear, etc.) and the homages to all the struggles with the Comics Code back in the day has me intrigued!
Seriously. Imagine we have some wild apocalyptic event and theres not enough context left to explain what happened in this time period but there are Riverdale DVDs and like... insert almost anything popular right now...
Can we all give props to Alex for using a plushie for a 16 minute video? 😃 If you need something that is well- less weird than Riverdale, try the Nancy Drew series. (not the 90s series. That was perfect. 😤) I don’t mind if a show doesn’t take itself seriously, as long as the writing can back it up. The one thing that I wish they did stick with was a paranormal series, were it _was_ taken seriously, with good writing, and writers.
So, we're just not going to talk about the puppet clothes Alex had to procure for each character? I mean granted, one of them looks like it's wearing cuffs from two different shirts...
@@b4lltongue gotta love Ryan Murphy, but I’m pretty sure he has no idea what goes on after high school 🤣🤣🤣 both glee and Riverdale started off as relatively normal and turned into a fun crazy story to tell afterwards
I always say it’s the best bad show ever, an absolute masterclass of shit in the best way possible. The writers have really swung for the fences with seemingly no storyline being out of bounds. I remember I fell off after season 2~ but my girlfriend was watching season 6 so I tuned in for a second and I was like “babe what the fuck why can jughead read minds” and I simply had to find out
I absolutely loved how you did this video, I loved the chaotic vibes and the puppets were so funny. Would definitely love to see more videos in this style in the future
I’m coming to the video late but I just gotta say I kinda love the psychiatrist being a blatant parody of Fredric Wertham. He was a prominent psychologist in the 50s who was avidly against comic books and got a lot of parents on board because of his book Seduction of the Innocent. This is what lead to comics self censoring and being video goofy during the 50s and 60s. While this hurt books like Batman, it’s actually what lead to the popularity of books like Archie in the first place.
The only reason I'm sad about Riverdale ending is because we won't have any more videos of Alex mercilessly tearing it apart!
Same

same :(
😂😂😂😢
Stan ur pfp
Honestly so impressed with these actors keeping a straight face delivering lines after 5 seasons of this BS
They've laughed at the show during interviews.
It’s amazing what fistfuls of money can make you do lol
It’s 7 seasons actually
It helps that the show makes them dead inside. But hey, invest the salary well enough and they should be set for a long time
This comment reminds me of the time I went to see a play at a local university about a composer (can't remember which one), and it just got sillier and sillier and at some point the actors weren't even trying not to giggle onstage. It was the best play I ever saw.
Riverdale and Alex will forever be the best duo in history
Truly.
Preach, it's why he started this animation reaction in the first place, and the reason that I found him.
@Don't Read My Profile Picture ok
SuperEyePatchWolf tho
Just after Archie and his Abs,I guess.💪
I agree with your take on Archie. He's definitely been the highlight of this season for me. Can't help but smile when he's on screen because of how goofy his character is. Alot better than fighting bears and Hiram lodge
So when leonardo dicaprio does it , he gets an oscar.. but when sweat abs archie does it, it's cringe.
Give the boy some slack, he stopped a meteor with his freaking abs.
Riverdale is like that show that you only watch not for the plot but for the utter chaos that it has become
It’s truly a masterpiece of madness.
178 episodes of utter chaos 😂
Alex just adds to the chaos
I would watch crack vids of Riverdale and then go see the episodes to see the weirdness.
If this was a comedy show, this would be amazing
All I've gotten from this season is that 50s Betty is horny as hell and Archie is dim but sweet. It almost feels like the show got renewed for a final season but the writers had already done so many crazy sh*t that they don't know what to do as a send off for it. Man I am going to miss watching Alex slowly lose his mind each time a new season of this show airs as there's just something so special about these vids that never fail to make me laugh/smile.
I might be remembering the comics wrong but i feel like horny Betty is accurate 😂

This season is totally unnecessary all the episodes so far has been pointless and plotless all they only do or talk about is sex
Me neither, the first season at least told a mostly coherent story, but afterwards, it just descended into chaos, like the writers were blatantly making things up as they went along.
The show should have had at least 4 seasons imo. They're dragging it😭
Let's be honest, if they didn't have an attractive cast and Cole Sprouse nostalgia it probably would have ended a while ago
@@trinaq Agree. And even season 1 was insufferable for me. I kind of watched most of the 3 or 4 first seasons just because were aired before what I really wanted to watch and not a single time became engaged, neither to the story nor to any of the characters

The "Big Ol' Red Flag" parade was something else to see in puppet form. XD
As a puppeteer, I was tickled to see your plushie and some puppets doing this episode. Hope to see them again!
Betty's story sounds like its simply a retelling of the urban legend of the woman who refused to take her hair out of a bun and a black widow spider laid eggs in her hair and ate into her brain.
It is. The entire episode was Jughead writing scary stories.
Now that you say it, I think Archie's story is also inspired by a folk tale of sorts about a guy whp becomes obsesed with a girl he sees in a painting
It reminds me of an old episode of Freaky Stories....im old

As a 35 yr old, I can confirm this to be true.
I like the plushy version of Alex and the “Ums” puppets. I think one of these type of episodes everyonce in a while would be great to see.
Alex put more work into this video than the Riverdale writers have put into the last three seasons.
This video was top tier ! I don't know what I liked the most : the perfectly accurately crafted puppets, the parents being pokemon plushies, the nicknames or the Alex plushie narrator with his spoon taped to his hands 😂

It’s because they can act more like the classic versions in the 50’s setting. Might be a coincidence or planned.
yeah it's incredibly jarring and make it a little boring
I’m just glad that Betty & Veronica are still friends, their friendship is timeless. Love that, bless B & V.

@@b4lltongue gotta love Ryan Murphy, but I’m pretty sure he has no idea what goes on after high school 🤣🤣🤣 both glee and Riverdale started off as relatively normal and turned into a fun crazy story to tell afterwards
@@poppyfan2842 😂🤣
I always say it’s the best bad show ever, an absolute masterclass of shit in the best way possible. The writers have really swung for the fences with seemingly no storyline being out of bounds. I remember I fell off after season 2~ but my girlfriend was watching season 6 so I tuned in for a second and I was like “babe what the fuck why can jughead read minds” and I simply had to find out
The puppet/Toy Alex is the joy I wasn’t expecting
I’m gonna be so bummed when this show is over I love these videos so much
These puppets are awesome!!! ❤😂❤😂
Wow this style is so much fun it'd be great to do specials like this a few times a year!
I absolutely loved how you did this video, I loved the chaotic vibes and the puppets were so funny. Would definitely love to see more videos in this style in the future
I’m coming to the video late but I just gotta say I kinda love the psychiatrist being a blatant parody of Fredric Wertham. He was a prominent psychologist in the 50s who was avidly against comic books and got a lot of parents on board because of his book Seduction of the Innocent. This is what lead to comics self censoring and being video goofy during the 50s and 60s. While this hurt books like Batman, it’s actually what lead to the popularity of books like Archie in the first place.
Fun fact. Brad Raybury is a play on Ray Bradbury who was a famous sci-fi writer.
