  1. dudes they not going have bughead back anytime soon we going have to wait until close to end of the season for bughead return hell maybe even first half of season 6

    the only couples being back together for good by end of this season are varchie choni and kangs but bughead ya not coming back for long ass time

  2. how those that make ba better?

    betty never tells him when he being stupid or doing something dangerous she just sits back and let’s him act wild

    veronica doesn’t try manage archie if she did he wouldn’t been in jail ,or started stupid red circle she let him be him and help him but when he is being stupid she there to call him out on it and make him think she tells him when she feels making wild decision and to think

  3. Do you guys think that varchie happening now so that barchie can get together down the road? The head showrunner said that as the characters try and reconnect with one another they will discover they don’t need the same things as they did in high school. Also barchie may not be as different as Betty described since they have yet to share their trauma with one another which can bring people together. I think Archie going to realize Veronica is no longer who he needs but instead Betty and will start to become more focused on saving Betty as things get worse. Like she could get kidnapped by the trash bag killer. Plus based on how happy she was when she told Kevin about Archie I think their is a part of her that wants to be with him and only said what she did to protect her heart and fragile mental state. Do you guys think I grasping at straws here or do you think this scenario is possible. Mean a lot to hear your thoughts on this. Thanks.

    1. No, I think it’s totally possible! At the very least, Varchie getting back together does seem like they’ll discover they’re not who they were in high school, and does that work now? Or not? That may or may not tie into Barchie, but should be interesting to watch.

      1. I hope it ties into a Barchie pairing. They are the ONLY reason I watch Riverdale. Their chemistry is undeniable. Their three episodes of chemistry beat Bughead and Varchie’s chemistry from the entire series combined. ❤

  4. I think Charles and Chic will come into the picture (maybe as TBK) or maybe Glenn and Archie tries to rescue Betty. He’s too late. Betty gets severely wounded and ends up in a coma (her darkness) and Archie tries to pull her out of the darkness.

  5. I hope it ties into a Barchie pairing. They are the ONLY reason I watch Riverdale. Their chemistry is undeniable. Their three episodes of chemistry beat Bughead and Varchie’s chemistry from the entire series combined. ❤
