In episode 5, HEART OF DARKNESS, Riverdale produces the narrative equivalent of a good, strong (if weird) mouthwash to get the lingering taste of poorly-handled sexual abuse plotlines out of the viewership's collective mouths.
We applaud the audacity of the huge, inexplicable tonal shift, and how effectively we're led to forget about the icky stuff that came before when now we're just watching a completely different show that we very much don't understand.
And I guess there are Batman villains in Riverdale now.
