Critics Consensus

In "A Night to Remember," an uneven second season comes to a head as Riverdale's first -- and hopefully not last -- musical episode gloriously weaves the show's many wandering threads back into its central murder-mystery yarn.

"Chapter Thirty-One" goes Glee's predominant route of using covers to move the story and characters along, and while it's all a very surface level situation, it does mostly work.

Welcome, all of you, to the Riverdale musical episode, or as I like to call it, a bright light in what's otherwise been a very confusing season.

After much anticipation, the Riverdale musical episode has come and gone. While Cheryl deserved better (ie. the lead role of Carrie), it's a good thing she wasn't on stage for the musical after all.
