As of two days ago, I was watching Riverdale. I haven't finished them and I haven't even continued watching since last night, when I discovered, there will be ongoing seasons.
They story has actually cliched story. The story begun in a small town called Riverdale. A secret, major, murder case launched this story. Then, there would be a new students. There was a couple of childhood friends with unrequited crush. The one friend dated the students, while the other one was left broken hearted. Eventually the broken hearted one would move on with another friend. Then, there were dysfunctional families. There were harmonious families with some deeply rooted troubles issues. An obvious villain who wasn't not that obvious.
Lame.
What kept me going the first, because I liked the characterizations. Nah, it's not because their acting is awesome. It's also not because they all have such wonderful, polished characters.
No.
It's because, you're not sure who you like.
There is no total, major protagonist in my opinion. All of them have dimensions. Some of them totally stupid, some of them quiet interesting.
I'm not sure who to like. So, I like these them as a whole set.
Still, because of the cliche, the stupid characters, cringey teenager scenes, they bore me.
That's also why I haven't continued my binge watching. I was stuck at Season 2.
One of the most memorable scene was when FP told Jughead to never stop writing, despite their gang life. Jughead replied that he wrote every day.
So, based on that moment, I decided to start writing every day. Every day. Every thing. Not just a rant. Not just when I get the mood. Not just when I have a story.
I don't know how long I would be able to keep this decision, but I have to start somewhere, right?
Hopefully this will also help me with my other writing.
Anyway, I can say you should start watching Riverdale if you are still at school. It would be fun and engaging for you lot, I think.
Prost,
Ael.
