Riverdale Season 3 Episode 4 "Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Midnight Club" Review


When Betty confronts Alice about Gryphons and Gargoyles, Alice has no choice but to come clean about how she, along with the other parents, played the game in the early '90s, how a shocking mystery has been plaguing them all ever since.

This was a really interesting and great episode that was so much fun to watch as see how everything turned out and it was really fun to see a parent-centered episode and how they all got to where they are now. It was a little annoying how much of a breakfast club parody they decided to make this episode but with that, it was fun to see how they chose to style everything. The moments with Penelope were interesting with the truth coming out of her being groomed into being Clifford's wife and everything around that was really interesting to see. Then everything around the game and which rolls each character took was fun to see how it somewhat of macheted them perfectly. Alice being the central focus character was also an interesting move with the secret of her pregnancy and her life-changing affecting some of her actions. Which played into a really great ending moment where Alice was the only one not super high so she witnessed some of the weird things that went on around the Gargoyle King. Then the mystery around the death of the principle and one of the kids being responsible for it makes for a possible great storyline in future episodes surrounding which one of them become the Gargoyle King. Then just overall this was a really entertaining and fun episode and I can't wait to see what will happen now that more people are starting to play the game again.
