  • Must listen to companion to any viewing

    If you’re going to watch Riverdale this is a must listen. Hosts truly understand the glorious absurdity of the show and are hilarious in their own right.

  • PLEASE dump Pete!

    I don’t know if Pete is doing a bit or if he’s really as needlessly aggro as he seems on the show, but he is really dragging down the other two hosts. Way too abrasive and hostile for no reason; he seems to take dissenting opinions as personal attacks which is an absolutely insane approach for an adult man. Alex & Justin are fantastic and I really think you both would have a wider reach without Pete. I want to keep listening, but I think if I hear “all day errrrrrrr day” one more time I’ll lose ... more

  • Veronica could be a vampire

    When you live in darkness, you can be a vampire and drink milk. I have been waiting for the last season to develop Afterlife of Archie and bring Sabrina back. But, there is also Vampironica. And The Hunger with Jughead. The two paths, wholesome and horror could diverge there. It would be super cool. Not sure if they will do it. I wish someone would care about Ethel. Or Toni. The season started so serious with the Till and now I feel it’s going for camp and it’s confusing. I enjoy your po... more

  • Too Much Bughead

    Want to really like this but Pete just goes too far overboard with his Betty and Jugghead fascination.. Other than that, it’s pretty good show.

  • After Dark

    So great! Each person brings the podcast together and makes it a delight. Better than drinking maple rum at a speak easy under the milkshake shop in high school while the vixens dance on the roof. The joy the hosts have as they retell and discuss the crazy truly crazy happenings in Riverdale- is great. It’s great,5 stars, 10/10, bravo!

    Needs to be said. You needs all three of the hosts. They are fantastic together. When one is missing you feel it. Pete is great. Alex is great. Justin is great. ... more

  • IMPEACH PETE!!!!

    Like this podcast except for Pete!!!! Alex & Justin alone would be the best thing for this podcast! Pete shoves his opinions down everyone’s throat and goes off topic all the time and uses the F-bomb entirely too much!!! The last 2 episodes without Pete were great, but he’s back in full force in the latest one. Alex, Justin you 2 would be better off without Pete!!!!

  • Almost perfect

    Two of the hosts are great! Love their recaps of each episode. On the other hand is the third member whose dialogue contains 85% of bughead...

    NOT EVERYTHING HAS TO BE ABOUT BUGHEAD!

    He brings it in to almost every conversation or just brings it up randomly and puts other ships down to support his. It honestly sounds like a very unhealthy obsession. I wonder what other shows he does this to.

  • Watch The New Scooby Doo Show

    I love you guys, and your commentary on shows. So Comic Guys if you like Riverdale watch Mystery Incorporated. It’s the Scooby Gang in live-action again, but with a Riverdale tone. It’s on YouTube for free. I’m writing you’ll here and on YouTube to make sure you got my to recommendation.

  • don't want to hear a guy crying because his ship is no more

    The guy who stan Bughead is way too irritating to listen to, he makes the podcast uncomfortable and uninteresting. Even if the other two try to moderate the discussion, he doesn't need to yell or insult a ship, it's not enjoyable for the fans, it's ridiculous in addition to misanalyzing the characters and plots.

  • Almost perfect

    I love this podcast. These guys love Riverdale and love discussing the show. It’s funny and entertaining. My one complaint is PETE. Alex and Justin are a pleasure to listen to. They understand that Riverdale is a fun show and are all in for the ride. Pete is just a downer. Every single episode he has a complaint with a story or a character. He can’t just have fun with the show. When he doesn’t get what he wants he acts like a spoiled child and whines about it the whole episode. It’s annoying, ch... more

  • Job Well Done

    Riverdale is a beast of a show, I cannot imagine the work that goes into recapping it every week. And you guys do a stellar job. Rarely do you miss a beat on a show that runs through 6 plot points before the title card. So much happens in every episode with very little consequences. It’s almost impossible to remember every little detail. That’s why I love coming here and listening to the podcast after each episode. No other Riverdale podcast gets it right. I also appreciate Pete’s love for Betty... more
