I would love to hear his sardonic take on events like a dog eating a human heart that an EMT dropped. That definitely would have improved One Tree Hill. Lucas narrated One Tree Hill sometimes but Jughead would have been so much better. Is someone creative enough on these boards to edit together One Tree Hill episode and Riverdale monologues?

The Crazed Spruce November 7, 2017 Author Share November 7, 2017 Just thought I'd remind you guys that this is a Riverdale forum, not a One Tree Hill one. Feel free to chat about whatever show you like (and for that matter, anything BUT Riverdale) in the Small Talk thread. :) 1 Link to comment

After a rewatch of the last couple episodes, I am at least 90% certain I know who the Black Hood is...now I assume I have to wait the rest of the season to find out whether I'm right. But if they reverse-engineer the identity such that the clues we have so far are supposed to be irrelevant, to the point where you can tell the identity wasn't set and the clues weren't correct all along, I'm going to be annoyed. Plot twists and multiple levels of trickery and obfuscation are okay with me, but pretending we didn't see tiny things we saw is not. Everything plotwise needs a reasonable explanation, even in this wacky town where the weather makes no sense. WHAT?? Are the clues that obvious?!?!? I've been refraining from rewatching them due to keeping an obsession at an arm's length lol but has there been that many clues already?!?! I have several suspicions now but not enough that I can be certain about it... And the weather!! yeah... I mean, every show universe seems to come with its own weather system really! lol!!I It was really funny how with the downpour from last episode, Jughead still managed to remain quite dry when he was chatting with Betty, lol.... Not even one little drop of water on the floor... Hmmm, maybe they'll soon be chopping a xmas tree in shorts because its unusually warm! 1 Link to comment

Yeah.. there’s been enough for me to come up with some theories. But like I said.. the show could do a bait and switch on that if they feel like people have caught on or if they didn’t really have a plan to begin with. 1 Link to comment

It was obnoxious to watch how shipping (specially Ezra/Aria) basically dominated Pretty Little Liars, and killed any chance of actually interesting pairings to happen on the show because the ships were basically set in season 1 and they weren't allowed to deviate from that, at least for good. Hell, one character's wife was killed off because they couldn't just have him permanently not available for his high school girlfriend. Had Dawson's Creek run in the age of Social Media, I'm convinced the Dawson/Joey shippers would have gotten their way even though the Pacey/Joey pairing just worked better on so many levels. I pledge to you all now, if I ever become a showrunner I will not give a fart about fan reaction. I'll tell the dang story I want to tell, the best and most organic story. (And, quite possibly, get canceled but... still and all.)

I am convinced the end of the series is Jughead publishing his bestselling novel about life in a small town in the Hudson Valley; and if not, it oughta be. 2 Link to comment

Kind of like how the end of Dawson's Creek was Dawson making a movie about his coming-of-age in a small New England town on the Cape. But yeah, that ending makes sense,unless this show gets abruptly cancelled. Even then, I bet they would still have Jughead voiceover the ending.

That’s what I think too, that the ending will be Jugheads book. It has to be. Or something connected to said book or something. 2 Link to comment

I took that as confirmation. 4 Link to comment

That would a typical sweet ending to the show.... i can picture him standing next to a blow out picture of his book, looking proud ... a fit ending to a great show... A Dawson's creek-ish ending would be way too happy(and slightly cheesy) for this type of show, imo. On the other hand, i can also imagine him writing this from jail (aware of the jones luck). or like a manuscript found in his trailer after x amount of years.... nice twist ending for a season finale maybe...

Yeah.. depending on where the show goes and what direction it takes. We will see, I guess. 1 Link to comment
galax-arena November 9, 2017 Share November 9, 2017 I personally like Jughead so I’d be sad if they killed him off, but that seems unlikely as something the show would ever do. Well, yeah, of course it's unlikely; my comment was blatant wish fulfillment more than anything else. I don't actually think the show is gonna kill him off you guys, lol. I'll look on the bright side though; without Jughead I wouldn't have the iconic "I'm weird, I'm a weirdo" meme in my life. Cole has the most irritating voice ever, it sucks that he's the narrator. 2 Link to comment
dwmckim November 10, 2017 Share November 10, 2017 Actually the end needs to be that Jughead's writings are rejected as a novel. But then accepted as a comic book. 5 Link to comment

I like him, but agree that his voice is a little grating, especially for a narration that's trying to sound jaded and world-weary and wise. On the other hand, that makes it more realistically teenage. 1 Link to comment

Moxie Cat December 9, 2017 Share December 9, 2017 I'm in the process of catching up on the last few episodes, which is why I'm posting on this thread so late, so I don't expect anyone to read this. But I scanned through all the pages and I cannot believe there isn't one musical theatre geek out there who realized that the librarian's name (said a few times!) was Ms. Paroo, a.k.a Marian Paroo from the Music Man, who was famously the town's librarian ("Marian the Librarian"). Can't believe such a dated but awesome and obvious reference made it into a CW show. These are some show runners and writers we've got here. Most impressive. 5 Link to comment
