'Riverdale' season 3 episode 1 review: Fred Andrew's punch and Cheryl Blossom's sassiness are highlights we can't get over

Archie Andrews decides to serve prison time rather than letting his family go through the tedious court trial over again and we see Hiram Lodge's downfall dawning

Spoilers ahead.

When the 'Riverdale' cast members said that the fans are going to "absolutely freak out" with Season 3, they were right. Episode one of the third season titled 'Labor Day,' aired on October 10 and never was any episode so far removed from reality as this one, but entertaining nevertheless. We can't wait to see how baffled we are going to get as rest of the season unfurls.
