With "Brave New World," Riverdale's second season puts on its red leather jacket and rides off into the sunset. And, for once, all looks hunk-dory—until it doesn't!

Shots Fired!: Recapping 'Shadow Of A Doubt' (Chapter 33) May 03, 2018

Show notes

As Riverdale reaches its season two endgame, we were tempted to call this episode"the calm before the storm," but then we remembered that "Shadow Of A Doubt" includes a scene where the Black Hood raises hell at Fred and Hermione's mayoral debate. That this week's tense episode feels quiet in comparison is proof that the show operates on an unrivaled level of insanity, which is why Dial M For Maple loves it so much. Special guest host Eric Thurm joins Cameronthis week to discuss the looming threat of Small Fry, the Death Becomes Her remake of their dreams, and the profound point Riverdale might be trying to make about the American Dream.
