Riverdale Riverdales harder than it’s ever Riverdaled before – Given that season six of Riverdale involved parallel universes, superpowers, sorcery, time travel, and an appearance by the literal devil, it should be tough to pick the most unhinged moment in the gloriously bonkers TV series. But it’s not. After Veronica (Camila Mendes) siphons everyone’s superpowers and gives them to Cheryl (Madelaine Petsch) to destroy the comet that’s about to crash-land on the town, the insanity rebooted Riverdale so hard that 1) everyone’s a teenager again, 2) they’ve gone back to 1955, 3) they seem to be living in the peppy, goofy harmless world of the original 1950s Archie Comics, and 4) no one has any idea what’s happened other than Jughead (Cole Sprouse). His face says it all.
