Since its debut, Riverdale exists on a plane that's entirely its own. It has a flair for the maple syrup business, the sexualization of characters, jingle-jangle, and murder. And we love it because of that.
Sometimes the plotline is amiss, and we just turn the other cheek because like I said, it exists on its own plane.
That all changed with the Black Hood storyline. All of season two shifted from the Jason Blossom murder mystery to the Black Hood murder mystery, and while it wasn't oozing that Riverdale-goodness, it was a storyline with a heartbeat, so we let it run its course.
While Black Hood hasn't been the most engaging of villains, he's offered viewers an insight into the twisted town that is Riverdale.
But the reveal of Black Hood's identity was a letdown of epic proportions. Loyal fans simply cannot accept that kind of mediocrity.

The Black Hood is dead. Long live the Black Hood.
With Riverdale not returning until the middle of next month, the mid-season finale was seemingly custom-made to keep people talking in the interim. Mission accomplished then, as there is a lot to chew on here. The biggest revelation was that Joseph Conway/Mr. Svenson was himself the Black Hood, punishing the town for their sins to restore the cosmic justice that he unbalanced after causing a lynch mob to bury an innocent man alive years earlier.
Or is he?

A Long Island escort has come forward with startling claims about Suffolk County’s disgraced former police chief who investigated the infamous Long Island Serial Killer case in which at least 10 bodies were discovered on Gilgo Beach.
The escort, identified only as Leanne, alleged at a Thursday press conference that former chief James Burke enlisted her services several times in 2011.
