Riverdale is back with the anticipated (or dreaded) musical episode, and this year…they’re doing Hedwig and the Angry Inch. The verdict? It wasn’t as bad as it could have been, but we probably should’ve done a different musical. Kevin Keller utters a line in the first ten minutes that “Hedwig isn’t a niche musical” and all we’re thinking is, “YES IT IS THAT’S THE ENTIRE POINT?!?!?” In fact, maybe it’s just because we’re prudes or parents but, uh, Principal Honey is right on this one, even if he is enjoying taking these kids down a bit too much. Yet despite all of this, and despite the show faking us out on making this a Kevin-centered episode, the drama between the Core Four and the long-awaited romance between Betty and Archie was maybe some of the best work they’ve ever done, flashbacks and all. Wade through the awful with us to get to the great this week on The Doghouse!
