It’s Back to School season for Riverdale and for Cecily and Chanda. We quickly bring you up to date on what’s next for everyone’s favourite redhead, his friends, and his beloved jalopy. Plus, there’s casting news, talk of TV reboots and more!
WE MADE IT!
Join Cecily and Chanda in a victory lap at the end of the marathon that was season 2 of Riverdale. This week we discuss New Charmed vs. Old Charmed, white feminism, broadening the literary canon, CW scheduling shenanigans, Arrow, Supernatural, Hiram’s end game, whether Hal Cooper is a weevil, and yes, what’s next for our Riverdalians next season.
Hal, is that you?
I’ve been waiting for a girl like you…
Brave New World is a dystopian novel by English author Aldous Huxley. Published in 1932, it propounds that economic chaos and unemployment will cause a radical reaction in the form of an international scientific empire that manufactures its citizens in the laboratory on a eugenic basis, without the need for human intercourse.
Set in a future London, it follows the fortunes of the illegitimate son of a senior governor, who has grown up in America, outside the new empire, and who experiences a dramatic culture-clash when he has to live under its rules. The novel anticipates developments in reproductive technology, sleep-learning, psychological manipulation, and classical conditioning.
On publication, the book earned mixed reviews, but is now seen as one of the most significant novels of the 20th century, consistently ranking high in the major literary league-tables. (from Wikipedia)
I felt it was kinda crazy Charmed ripped off the The Craft & cut out the black character… https://t.co/bDnNORDQ6z

Super sorry for unintended dragging. My tweet wasn’t at all about craft vs charmed. It was about the absurdity of either of us commenting on remakes. My point is a young fresh Latina cast getting a TV show re Brujas is a sea change to be celebrated not bemoaned #diversity https://t.co/bbxRTgjZsv

Hold on to your letter sweaters, because this was an excellent episode! That’s right, neither Cecily nor Chanda have anything negative to say about this episode. We discuss Cheryl Blossom as the Avenging Angel of Riverdale, whether Cole Sprouse will return next season, The Problem with Hiram Lodge, and Cecily takes a victory lap because she was right about the identity of The Black Hood all along.
Note: The episode was previously titled “The Killing of a Sacred Deer”. That title comes from Yorgos Lanthimos’ and Efthymis Filippou’s 2017 psychological horror film of the same name.
Judgment Night is a 1993 American action thriller film directed by Stephen Hopkins and starring Emilio Estevez, Cuba Gooding Jr., Jeremy Piven and Stephen Dorff as a group of friends on the run from a gang of drug dealers (led by Denis Leary) after they witness a murder.

Double your pleasure, double your fun with a Double Digest from Cecily and Chanda! This week your hosts discuss “Chapter Thirty-Two: Prisoners” and “Chapter Thirty-Three: Shadow of a Doubt”. In all, they were two solid episodes! Colour us surprised!
Prisoners is a 2013 American thriller film directed by Denis Villeneuve from a screenplay written by Aaron Guzikowski. The film has an ensemble cast including Hugh Jackman, Jake Gyllenhaal, Viola Davis, Maria Bello, Terrence Howard, Melissa Leo and Paul Dano.[3] It is Villeneuve’s first English-language feature film.
The plot focuses on the abduction of two young girls in Pennsylvania and the subsequent search for the suspected abductor by the police. After police arrest a young suspect and release him, the father of one of the missing girls kidnaps the suspect to interrogate and torture him. The film was a financial and critical success. At the 86th Academy Awards, the film was nominated for Best Cinematography.
Shadow of a Doubt is a 1943 American psychological thriller film noir directed by Alfred Hitchcock, and starring Teresa Wright and Joseph Cotten. Written by Thornton Wilder, Sally Benson, and Alma Reville, the film was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Story for Gordon McDonell. In 1991, the film was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress, being deemed “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant”.

Well, that was a musical? We guess? Join Chanda and Cecily as they discuss what they liked, what they questioned, and what they hated about Chapter 31: A Night to Remember.
A Night to Remember is a 1958 British drama film adaptation of Walter Lord’s 1955 book, which recounts the final night of the RMS Titanic. Adapted by Eric Ambler and directed by Roy Ward Baker, the film stars Kenneth More and features Michael Goodliffe, Laurence Naismith, Kenneth Griffith, David McCallum and Tucker McGuire. It was filmed in the United Kingdom. The film focuses on the story of the sinking, portraying the major incidents and players in a documentary-style fashion with considerable attention to detail; the production team, supervised by producer William MacQuitty, used blueprints of the ship to create the sets accurately, while Fourth Officer Joseph Boxhall and ex-Cunard Commodore Harry Grattidge both worked as technical advisors on the film. Its budget of £600,000 (£11,868,805 today) was exceptionally large for a British film and made it the most expensive film ever made in Britain up to that time. (Source: Wikipedia)

Cecily and Chanda review “The Noose Tightens”, discuss the show’s handling of Cheryl’s conversion therapy, Kevin Keller: Convenient Gay, Cheryl’s bisexuality, and our OTP, #Falice and more. Show notes below.
Benjamin Bennett (1904–1985) was a well known South African crime writer. He worked as a journalist with the Cape Argus newspaper from 1925 to 1975, as a crime reporter, and subsequently as news editor and finally editor of Argus Action. He was born in Kimberley, South Africa, and was educated at Kimberley Boys’ High School.
Bennett’s prodigious output of books reflects a close involvement, as crime reporter, both at the crime scene and in the courtroom, where his professional life regularly took him, pen and notebook in hand. It is said that, for his insight, he was even consulted by the police for the solving of certain complex cases.
