You can almost hear the cheesy muted theme music this week as Riverdale has a very special episode for one of its very special characters. Reggie is back, but this time, he’s a lot more aloof and guarded than we ever knew him. To be fair, though, the way society treats him and his family, you can’t really blame Reggie for not wanting to get too close to everyone in town. Leave it to sweet, dumb Archie to learn the truth behind his recruitment and what Clifford Blossom’s real aim is. Meanwhile, Tabitha is back in town, Cheryl is actually thoughtful and sweet, and Betty has maybe the most awkward moment she’s ever had on the show. We discuss “Chapter 125: Hoop Dreams” this week on The Doghouse!
