love the romance
rashidahee26 March 2021
I loved the scenes between Betty and Archie. They have surprisingly good chemistry. The Shallow cover between Chad and Veronica was nice. Overall the episode felt really fresh. It's a really nice change from past seasons. Everything feels new.

Perfect

Not as good as the other one but the storyline itself was so damn awesome and it ended with a great cliffhanger. Barchie is very fun to watch and I'm loving these two together

I loved Veronica at the White Wyrm and the way Archie was happt for her. They need to be justfriends because Barchie is the endgame of this show.

I want Jughead and Archie friendship

I loved these two in season 1 and 3. I'm hoping Jug will be okay with Archie and Betty. And I hope Jughead gets with Tabitha at the end.

Barchie is really good. I never thought they had that much chemestry. The car scene was everything

Tension is growing...
mia_v_green25 February 2021
Warning: Spoilers
Nice episode. The separate plotlines are slowly growing and becoming visible.

I like the idea of Barchie. Their personalities go well together. So far, they are mainly about sex, so we'll see how that's going. Don't like the hiding. Don't go behind your friend's back, tell Jug the truth, before he finds out by accident.

Toni's development is great. Can't wait to see, how the baby will be incorporated into the story.

Jug and Tabitha have a great chemistry. What a refreshing pairing. I need more of them together. Also glad that Jug is getting something to do again. I like seeing him investigate mysteries.

I do miss their friendships though, especially Jarchie und Beronica. I hope we'll get more of these soon.

The singing, while nice, seems very unnecessary most of the times. It doesn't add anything but slows down the episodes. Use it well or don't use it.

It was bland boring
alicekatesmith25 February 2021
Warning: Spoilers
It wasn't anything special just mediocre episode to be honest they are trying to convince Barchie is this hot pairing but in reality it's just really boring and dull. Hiram is the villain yet again and Betty is running around after Polly for the fifth season now.

Barchie
cooperelizabeth-8912825 February 2021
Really loving the barchie dynamics. Kinda sensing that varchie is going to happen which I don't like, if they go back to them I feel like they would go back to the same show. This season with barchie happening, Toni being one of the most important characters, Tabitha joining and Cheryl is what makes riverdale great again, if they get bughead and varchie together again, at any point, it might not be so great.

Disappointing
alyssarebeccaxo-5326625 February 2021
Warning: Spoilers
It feels like it's just the same tired storylines over and over again. This was my favorite show and I've lost interest. I was so excited for new episodes, but so far this is the worst season. Barchie was rushed. Betty is so unlikeable now. Archie is awful for trying to manipulate Cheryl into giving more money by mentioning Jason. How many times will we have to deal with Hiram as the main villain? Choni, Veronica & Tabitha are the only good things about this season.

Best season yet
cartwrightgarrett-7490027 February 2021
For some reason this has really turned into a great season. There feels like there is not a redundant motive and a story that has a lot to build on. Finally things are happening that needs to happen. And emotions are being expressed.

martinriggs-2841425 February 2021
Very average episode. After a promising start to season 5, Riverdale is backwith the cringe.

The writers are on a roll
hnt_dnl28 February 2021
Warning: Spoilers
This time jump is the best thing that could have happened to this series. It's easy to come up with a good idea, but always hard to implement and you never know if it's going to work out. But Time Jump Riverdale is turning out to be a smashing success. It doesn't matter so much that most of the characters don't look 7 years older, but that both the writing and acting is capturing the more mature vibe. And everyone is pulling it off. Everything just works now. A HUGE problem with most of the earlier seasons is that the main plots were absurd and that the writing focused more on the silly plots than it did the characters, who behaved according to how the plot called for them to instead of making rational decisions or acting in character. Basically, nonsense writing for much of the season, then in the finale, the main characters would succeed and solve the puzzle through sheer luck. But Season 5 feels different.

This episode BACK TO SCHOOL features the former Riverdale students now becoming teachers. Archie, Betty, Veronica, Jughead, Toni, and Kevin are now all the authority figures shaping teenage minds. In this one, Archie tries to bring back the school football team. Also, Veronica's husband Chad shows up in town to support her new endeavor as well as ingratiate himself to her friends. Jughead chases a story possibly involving aliens for a potential novel. Betty investigates the disappearance of Polly. Meanwhile, Cheryl has this art forgery business going with Nana Rose. A really nice mixture of normal with odd. Also, on the romantic horizon, Barchie's slow building chemistry continues, Veronica and Chad make for an intriguing pairing, and the seeds of Jughead and Tabitha becoming a couple are planted. So far, this new version of Riverdale is working out. Season 5 may turn out to be the best in a while.
