I love this revisit of season 7 Gallavich, because I love those episodes. They are absolutely the comfort episodes I'm most likely to put on if I just want to watch some Gallavich (and then bonus Monica chaos, with Lip falling apart in the corner.) But when I see this sort of literal celebration of the season and those precious two episodes, I always think of the people who watched that shit LIVE. And they were not celebrating.

Context is everything. When you know how the story ends, and you know that isn't the ending, and you know you can just fully skip season 8 on your rewatch, 7x10 and 7x11 are really lovely, bittersweet, emotionally cathartic episodes.

I try to keep this in mind in fandom -- though to make it silly, maybe I can also keep this in mind in life -- that sometimes all you need is a little time and a different perspective, and it's not that bad. It might even be pretty good.

every October 12th I think about how we’re supposed to believe that the team would have forgotten Reid’s birthday in 7x11 when it is also literally Emily’s

like, the implication is either that they celebrated Emily and didn’t remember she and Reid are bday buddies; or that even after Emily reminded the team of Reid's bday and organized his belated bday celebration in the conference room, no one remembered that they’d also missed hers

considering the latter option makes me particularly emo since Reid's 30th would also have been Emily‘s first birthday after having come back from the dead in March

yes realistically I understand this is just another example of continuity errors on the show

but still

Riverdale, Ep.7x11 - Halloween 2 (spoilers)

With only 9 episodes left, the series finally, finally starts to deal with the main storyline. Maybe. I honestly don't even know anymore.

It's almost Halloween, which is apparently Veronica's favorite time of the year. And so she decides to go to school dressed as a witch. Not just a witch, a sexy witch. Yeah, that costume wouldn't fly in schools today, let alone in 1950. Also, it's not even Halloween when she does it, so why is she shocked people are staring? Anyway, apparently Riverdale doesn't celebrate Halloween anymore. Well, children do, but teenagers can't because a few years ago two River Vixens and two Bulldogs died in a crash when they were acting foolishly that night.

Veronica decides to host a special Halloween event at the theater. She invites everyone to come, but Jughead, Reggie, Betty, and Archie won't be there because of their own storylines. Alice gets wind of Veronica's event and, well, threatens her in Alice's own special way.

Toni wants Cheryl to go, but Cheryl can't as she always hosts a slumb....ah, skip it. Cheryl has someone else hold the party and she sneaks out. They, along with Kevin, Clay, and Veronica do a rendition of songs from Rocky Horror that somehow simultaneously does and does not get the point of Rocky Horror (yeah, I don't get how that managed that either.). Alice sneaks in and see all the naughty things going on. This will be a problem in the future (or they'll forget it next episode. Who knows anymore). At the end of the episode, Clay and Kevin confront Veronica on why she's sleeping at the theater. She tells them everything is fine.

Also, Cheryl, Toni, Fangs, and Midge go to Pop's where they decide to loudly talk about everything they don't want the people of Riverdale to know. Of course, Evalyn (oh, you're back again. Again.) just happens to hear everything.

Meanwhile, Betty is trying to figure out if she's into Reggie or Archie. As Reggie has never had a true Halloween before, she suggests she and Archie take him trick or treating, to a cemetery, and to...neck in a haunted house. So, Archie and Reggie put two and two together and realize Betty might be into both of them. And they agree if Betty seems to be interested in one of them more then the other, the other should bow out. So, they go trick or treating, they go to the cemetery (where it becomes obvious to Reggie that he should bow out), and then they go to the haunted house....oh look, it's Ethel's home. (Really, Jughead is the only one who gives two fucks about Ethel in this series).

Reggie bows out and starts to go home. Only to be picked up by Jason, who has been constantly driving around with other Bulldogs causing mayhem. Meanwhile, Betty and Archie are still at Ethel's home about to maybe have sexy times, when Betty sees the Milkman. Archie and Betty run away and go to her house. They're about to kiss when they are stopped by the second most horrible thing in Riverdale; Alice.

Archie is woken up in the middle of the night. Seems like Jason's car went off a bridge and there are players hurt.

Finally, Jughead is trying to convince everyone there's a Milkman who's a killer. Uh, this is why he needs a Betty type partner. Someone needs to reign him in before he starts, oh say, slapping milk cartons out of people's hands. Later, he talks to Ethel (oh, she's still here. Nice.). This convinces Ethel to escape The Sisters. Of course, she can't stay with Jughead as she'll easily be found. So naturally he suggests Radberry's apartment as it's paid for for the rest of the year (and surely the Landlord won't stop by). Jughead and Ethel try to solve the murder of her parents by going to the Pep Comics Halloween party to try and find the author of the original Milkman story. They are unsuccessful. Well one author is mentioned (I will NOT dignify this, Riverdale, with naming him), but he apparently killed himself saying he'll never write anything as good as that story. Jughead takes Ethel back to the apartment. Ethel goes inside and we see the milkman. Jughead walks down the hall but is stopped by Ms. Machina again, who lets him know about the milkman. Jughead bursts into the apartment to see the milkman dead and Ethel standing over his body with a bloody knife. (Also, quietist death ever. Those walls are clearly paper thin and yet nobody hears a thing).

The AoS Finale - Where Everyone Ended Up

A Positive Review:

I’m just gonna preface this by saying: I don't think this was a perfect end to the show but in my opinion it came pretty close and I'm happy with it, so this is a positive outlook on where all the characters ended up. I’m not super interested in dwelling on what could have been and this show means a great deal to me so the fact that I’m overall happy with where everyone ended up is something I was hoping for and glad came to be. (This also ended up being way longer than anticipated hence the “keep reading” if your interested in my rambling)

The Nature of Family:

“Yet, this is the nature of families; I have seen it countless times on countless worlds. People arrive so we celebrate, and people leave us so we grieve. We do what we can with the time in between but the cycle is always there - no-one escapes it, not even me.” - Enoch (7x09)

The found family has always been my favourite aspect of the show, so finding out that the team wouldn't be together at the end (ever, because Deke stayed behind but also just them not staying a team) hit me hard. But after seeing it and how it was done, it honestly feels like a pretty realistic and bittersweet ending that fits the characters’ progression without ruining what I loved about their relationships. Because it doesn’t feel like they've really broken up the family – in fact, they feel like they're practically an actual family despite being apart now. That VR meeting they had was very reminiscent of an awkward family reunion, except we can clearly see that they all still love each other and aren’t interested in losing contact – there's no longer an imminent threat and so life goes on; the team members have their own lives now and those lives involve them not being together beyond meeting up every so often.

(Also, the spirit of a found family isn’t lost with the addition of Kora and Alya into these characters’ lives - sure, Daisy now has a biological sister and Fitzsimmons have their own kid but that doesn’t negate any of their other relationships to the team but instead makes it so that Kora and probably more so Alya are extensions of this larger family - like Deke was)

Happy Endings and New Beginnings (Each Character’s Ending):

LMC!Coulson: I fully expected LMC!Coulson to deactivate himself at the end of the season, but I actually like what happened with him in the end. Real Coulson being denied a peaceful death is what started this show and so when season 5 came, I was honestly happy that they ultimately let him die and it was a major concern for me that LMC!Coulson would take away from that, so seeing that in the end he was given full autonomy over that choice made me very happy. He's still with SHIELD but is also being allowed to do his own thing, and he is finally being left in charge of his own fate: the team obviously wants him to stick around but they are respecting his choice to decide that for himself. Plus, ending with him and Lola 2.0 flying off felt like a very good and satisfying bookend for the show to me.

May: I'll start with Philinda – I couldn't see any way for Coulson and May to end up together because the real Coulson had died and LMC!Coulson is ultimately not him; as much as I enjoyed their scenes together this season, it wouldn't have felt right to me for them to end up in a relationship together (and as for saving Real Coulson – they didn't go anywhere near that time and honestly saving Coulson would've been unfair to both him and LMC!Coulson, so I don't think it would've worked properly, especially with only 13 episodes)

So for May's actual ending: I think it's great. Over the course of the season it seemed to me that she was getting semblances of emotion back and in the VR meeting it looked like she was almost back to normal (I’ll admit that this should have been confirmed explicitly and overall explained a bit more but I digress). And as for being a teacher, she has been a maternal figure and S.O. for the majority of the show to several agents (primarily Daisy) and so ending the show with her retired from active field duty and becoming a teacher for a whole new generation of SHIELD agents (at Coulson Academy no less) felt like a wonderful ending for her character. It also felt - to me at least - like she and LMC!Coulson still have a bond (her offer was the only one he really responded to) and I think leaving it open was the best thing they could’ve done.

Daisy: I was always one of the fans that wanted Daisy to be the director at the end but given the character’s progression, I’m happy with what we got. Daisy has always been shown to be a good leader for small teams; we saw that with the Secret Warriors and the Space Team at the start of Season 6, so giving her a team and her own Zephyr to go out and explore space felt appropriate. She's in a place where she's comfortable with who she is and so allowing her to fill the role that Coulson had in her life with Kora brings her story full circle. She's "loving the journey" with Sousa and seems to be actually happy with her smaller space family. She was definitely the least comfortable with leaving the team for good, as shown by her looking at all the empty chairs at the end of the VR meeting and everything she said to Mack in 7x11, but I think it was important to show that despite the team splitting up, she still has that family - it’s just that she doesn’t see them all the time and that’s okay because they’ll still always be her family. (Also, Coulson asking her to give him a call when she got back felt a lot like a parent who’s kid had moved away which drove home that idea for me)

Fitz and Jemma: Not much to say for these two – they got their happily ever after with Alya and I think that's beautiful. Fitz fully retiring felt like the right call given that being a SHIELD agent was the cause of a lot of pain for him (I'm not saying it didn’t result in a lot of pain for everyone else because it definitely did, but I've always felt like Fitz would be better off living a peaceful and uneventful life since he's never really much enjoyed the good parts of being an agent like the others did). Jemma sort of retiring but helping Daisy with some stuff was also great. Honestly, just the two of them raising Alya is a good ending for them (not to mention Alya having this massive extended family that spoils her - it just warms my heart)

Deke: Deke probably has the most bittersweet ending because he doesn't get to see the rest of the team again. I have no doubt he'll look after the versions of the people he loves in his new timeline (like he told Mack he would) and he also has his own little found family with the Deke Squad (if I recall correctly, they said they’d be at the Triskelion after a few weeks so I don’t think they got killed when it went down) so I think he'd ultimately be happy. Sometimes you don’t get the girl but Deke made a major sacrifice for the girl he liked and the family he'd grown to love, and that’s a testament to how much he had grown from the guy we met in the future who didn’t understand how people would be willing to sacrifice like that. (Also, as much as it'd be nice for Alya to actually be Deke's mum - they kept saying “maybe” so I think they know the odds are extremely slim and are just being very hopeful - this ending made it so that messing up another timeline had actual consequences that Deke has to deal with and I can appreciate that)

Mack and Yoyo: I don’t have much to say for these two either. I was surprised that Mack remained at SHIELD but honestly, he's really grown into the job so him being the Director of a fully re-established SHIELD and getting to continue working with Yoyo, May and Coulson (and Daisy I think) in some capacity is nice – it also seems like he's enjoying it so that's great. Yoyo being a highly decorated agent, getting her own team and working for an institution she trusts (in no small part because Mack is in charge) is also a great ending for that character, because when we met her all she wanted was to make a difference which she can continue to do with SHIELD. (also Yoyo usually seemed to, for the most part, enjoy being an agent so that’s a happy ending I think).

All in all, I think that the way in which the show ended and where we see all the characters after a year was handled well. They’re all pretty happy but there’s a bittersweet realism in that they’re no longer all together and sometimes you have to embrace that life goes on. As far as I’m concerned, they’re still a family but they’ve entered new chapters in their lives - like Mack and Daisy said in 7x11, it’s not the same but that’s okay.
