The episode felt a little lackluster anytime we strayed from the Blossom mansion. But wow, all of the Thornhill stuff was great, and though some good old-fashioned B&V action was missing this week, it's nice to see Veronica befriending Cheryl.April 20, 2017
The feuds and secrets run deep in this town, and Heart of Darkness makes it feel like Riverdale is just getting started with the excavation.April 20, 2017
For those hoping Riverdale would continue to lean more into its campier sensibilities, Chapter Five is the episode that scratches that itch.April 21, 2017
Things definitely went dark and dramatic on Riverdale.April 20, 2017
I wish this show had even more layers of insane and implausible drama. Riverdale, you complete me.April 20, 2017
What I love most about Riverdale is that it simultaneously surprises and completely makes sense at the same time.April 21, 2017
All of these developments were fantastic, unfortunately none of them involved, you know, the main character.April 21, 2017
Keeping track of all the characters and their ties to each other can be a dizzying task. That's the fun of the show though, trying to sort through all the wreckage and mayhem.
