Critics Consensus

Aided by an epic dose of nostalgia, "The Midnight Club" pushes the plot and provides a perfect showcase for the cast's impressive impersonations -- all while proving no show can pull off high-concept camp quite like Riverdale.

The madcap glee of "The Midnight Club" is an encouraging sign that Riverdale is on its way back to the unhinged nonsense that makes it great.

It's fun and extra in the same way the musical episode was. But it's also full of compelling character moments, grounding the campy Griffins & Gargoyles storyline in genuinely meaningful ways.

Leading their Breakfast Club-esque Saturday detention is Anthony Michael Hall, which is insanely perfect casting, and have I mentioned how fun this episode is ALREADY?

This was an episode with high anticipation surrounding it, and Riverdale delivered.

I know that this week's Breakfast Club inspired episode of Riverdale was meant to be a fun way to deliver the Gargoyle King's origins story, but I found the whole episode weirdly depressing.

2.5/5

While certain cultural aspects of the '90s are present in the episode,... the rest of the episode is more of an ode to the '80s.
