In season 2 near the middle, the show lost its way! And only got good at the musical episode and after! I mean one of the biggest wtf moment for me was when Archie cut the chains off Jughead and then they did that stare off, only for NOTHING to come of that! Like no fight, no jughead getting revenge, nothing!
But I do agree about what you’re all saying about jughead! Like seeing someone like him having to play the ‘leader’ of the serpents is weird and not really believable! Especially when you have someone like Sweet Pea there who, seems more like the alpha one out of them two and who has gone up against the bulldogs many times! Remember when Sweet Pea and the other serpents had that fight with Archie and the bulldogs? Ever since then I’ve always thought that sweet pea was southsides version of Archie! The dominant one who is willing to take charge and represent the southside and to fight for the serpents! Like how Archie is the dominant who is willing to take charge and represent the north side and to fight for the town!
And I still can’t get over the cringe acting from jug when he confronted chic in the kitchen after finding out chic wasn’t Betty’s brother! And when jug and the rest of the serpents stormed into the coopers house to confront the woman who was after money
