The 12 Most Unhinged Moments On 'Riverdale'

The Riverdale universe has its share of sordid drug abuse, but you won't find people getting their rocks off on heroin, crack, or meth. Their preferred poison is a little stimulant called jingle jangle, which of course is consumed out of a paper straw like Pixy Stix.

One of the weirdest elements of Riverdale is the dynamic between Veronica and her villain father, Hiram Lodge. They're father and daughter, but love to act like quarreling, vindictive lovers toward each other. And there's no end in sight! We've had enough, CW!

Something hilarious about Riverdale is that it tries to confront the ills of American society — like private prisons — but with its own twist, like an underground fight club consisting exclusively of beefy teens.

Cheryl as a whole is as captivating as she is unhinged. Throughout her five seasons, she comes out as gay, burns down her family's estate after learning her father killed her twin brother, gets inducted into a cult, and always dominates as Riverdale High's blistering Queen Bee.

He was mauled by a bear and lived to tell the tale! Calm down, Leonardo DiCaprio!

A town with a teen speakeasy naturally has to have a high-end adult brothel. What else would you expect?

Of course Veronica Lodge, who is 17 going on 34, opens a speakeasy in the basement of Riverdale's only restaurant, Pop's.

Jason, who drowns in Sweetwater River at the start of Riverdale, regularly shows up in dreams, memories, and hauntings. However, nothing will top when his literal corpse is propped up in Thornhill's basement by his twin Cheryl, who pretends he is alive and well.

The Farm originally shows up as a new age-y cult with sinister energy, and is eventually revealed to be an organ harvesting ring. And it's led by Chad Michael Murray!

Serial killers are addicted to living in Riverdale, so much so that the show spun up its own genetic disorder: the serial killer gene. Does 23andMe check for that?

When Marisol Nichols announced that Riverdale's fifth season would be her last, fans wondered how she'd be written off the show. Spoiler alert: She joins the Real Housewives of New York City cast at the behest of Andy Cohen. Ramona Singer versus Hermione Lodge when?

When a pervert was running around Riverdale recording peoples' homes and making wannabe snuff films of the locals, teenage sleuths Jughead Jones and Betty Cooper had to investigate. The culprit ended up being Jughead's tween sister — named Jellybean, duh — who did it because she was sad her brother was gearing up to leave for college. Grow up!
