let’s complain for 8 minutes straight about why this video is so absolutely bizarre, how Riverdale has affected the musical theatre community, and maybe some ideas on how to respectfully cash in on Broadway ( aaaaand i ended up removing all of the actual footage of the video so if you’d like to watch it, here’s the link! kzbin.info/www/bejne/nGGxqmh-g7OseM0 )

Emily, if your going to use the story lines and score from a musical especially if it is based in high school and about teen and mother bullying and religion, than you respect the score and the story, and you don't change it so that it doesn't make sense, and you as a producer don't bander to get the Broadway community thinking you are going to get more kids into Broadway and then crap all over the restive teams work and screw the composers by drastically changing songs, and giving story lines to other characters who are not in that musical just cause they are part of the river dale cast. if you want to do a river dale musical then ou hire composers and do a river dale musical, you don't screw up two wonderful created musicals just so you can try and get viewers.

Why do i vibe so strongly with your energy in this video

[@alexiawakefield7353]

Like honestly, the relative polish and professionalism of your main channel vs the chaotic theater kid energy of this video really do both be a mood

How have I never realized that Principal Honey from Riverdale is Jack McPhee from Dawson's Creek!? like Jack was great, that Principal Honey guy is not (like everything else in Riverdale is not)

I saw the internet blow up over the heathers episode and then immediately listened to the soundtrack and became obsessed so I can't be that mad about them making it

[@emmamcguire6441]

the riverdale x musical theater discourse has always been super interesting to me as someone who has been/is in both “fandoms”. in fact, riverdale is the reason i got back into mt after a few years of just not acknowledging it. but as someone who has been a part of the riverdale fandom when they have aired these musical episodes, i have not seen a single bad thing being said about musical theater within the fandom, which i really appreciate. in fact, if anything, the riverdale fandom has trashed on its own show (rightly so, it sucks lol) and continuously expressed how we think the show is ruining the mt shows they keep trying to “put on”. my point here is that i think a lot of the shit is misdirected at a fandom who really could not care less about “how cool theater kids are”, in fact a lot of us ARE theater kids. so as (begrudgingly) a part of the riverdale fandom, i would like to apologize on behalf of the shitshow of a musical episode riverdale keeps producing, and would encourage you all to direct your distaste towards the producers/writers of the show, thanks!

[@emmamcguire6441]

also to follow this up, a majority of the riverdale fandom hates the show as much, if not more, than you all do, and we are very aware the show is not good, just thought i needed to include this for context lmao

as someone who was obsessed with riverdale (1 had 5 stan accounts and it was my entire camera roll) and the biggest theatre nerd ever i was so excited for the first musical episode but pissed about how they did it. carrie is my favorite musical and i was ready to punch someone bc they executed it so poorly. the thing is some of the cast can sing, they just autotune is SO MUCH! you can even hear the autotune is casey cott's voice who is an actor who can sing incredibly well (his brother was corey cott and was in bandstand on broadway btw) and the entire cast and all of its fans pretty much hate the show at this point, we just enjoy it for the cast and to make fun of it.

4:10 CAN SOMEONE PLEASE MAKE A GIF OF THIS KAT IS ADORABLE AND THIS IS MY EVERYDAY MOOD

[@anav.m.6903]

Please don't blame the cast! They are just doing their job. I actually think Riverdale is horrible and the musical episodes are shit BUT the actors are not the ones that decide what to do. Thanks!
