![]() ![]() I desperately don’t want Tabitha to simply end up being a momentary foil for Bughead, only to be completely tossed aside if and when Betty and Jughead reunite. On the other hand, Riverdale has also been sprinkling more and more Bughead crumbs lately, and that doesn’t quite seem to be over yet. On one hand, they’re very cute, and I’m intrigued to see how they work together and how they affect each other. ![]() I’m still not sure how I feel about Jabitha. However, I would still love to see more appearances from them, if only to help us learn more about Tabitha! The catalyst turned out to be Tabitha’s parents, who seemingly disapprove of the choices of their radiant, small-business-owning daughter, who could definitely do a lot worse than a published author! After Veronica finally showed Hiram who the real boss was in the previous episode, it was nice to see that Tabitha was completely unwilling to hear the criticisms of her mother and father in Riverdale season 5, episode 18. At the beginning of the episode, I was shocked by how quickly Jughead jumped from zero to “boyfriend,” but after a full season of molasses-slow burn, these two needed to take a leap in either direction, for better or worse. The first of these moments was with Jughead and Tabitha, or as fans affectionately know them, Jabitha. There were a couple of times in Riverdale season 5, episode 18 where I was concerned about this, but in the end, taking this with a grain of “this is a Riverdale musical episode,” I think the episode actually carried out all of the plot points quite well. Something about plots and characters developing using words and sentiments that aren’t their own just feels very shallow to me, and I think it’s really hard to pull off in a satisfying way. And of course, they were perfectly flanked by Charles and Polly looking roughly a thousand times happier than we’ve ever seen them, which brought a huge smile to my face.Īdmittedly, I usually hate musicals or specials where they try to cram existing songs into a different story. Lili Reinhart and Madchen Amick completely carried the episode, delivering one stunning performance after another. The musical performances perfectly outlined the family’s trajectory from denial to acceptance, and for that reason, I think this was the best Riverdale musical episode yet. For a long time now, they’ve badly needed the space to mourn the loss of the “perfectly normal” family we saw in the early days of Riverdale, and the “Next to Normal” episode finally gave that to them. ![]() I loved everything about the Cooper family’s journey in this episode. While finally finding Polly’s body seemed to offer Betty at least a small amount of closure, it made Alice cling to her delusions even more tightly. ![]() The grounding effect was achieved by the Cooper family’s grief, as Betty and Alice grappled with Polly’s death in very different ways. Riverdale is constantly setting normal themes against absolutely ridiculous backdrops, and season 5, episode 18 remained refreshingly grounded while still providing many shocking twists. Riverdale’s fourth musical episode took on Broadway’s Next to Normal, which is honestly a perfect descriptor of the episode and the show as a whole.
