"Riverdale" Season 2 kicks off on Wednesday, October 11 on the CW and it is going to be an even darker season than the first. Season 2 picks up right where we left off with darkness and suspense continuing to mount right from the get-go.
There is a lot to process from the season one finale and here is what we can expect from season two."Riverdale" fans remember in the season one finale Archie was last seen dragging his father (Luke Perry) out of Pop's Chock'lit Shoppe after being shot and into the hospital. The mystery around the shooting is going to escalate, Jughead believes that there is more to the story than Archie is revealing.
Life hangs in the balance in 'Riverdale'
After talking with Archie and Pop, Jughead begins to believe that the shooting was not a random incident, but that a hit may have been ordered. Whether it was meant for Fred Andrews or even Archie remains to be seen at this point. Season two is going to allow the series to unfold and build in a more extensive way. Nearly doubling the episodes from the first season fans will find intriguing storylines building among all of the "Riverdale" characters.
Things are going to take a big turn for Jughead and his relationship with Betty. Betty is not going to want Jughead to keep up his relationship with the Southside Serpents so this is going to put a strain on their relationship this season.
Especially when a Southside Serpent vixen steps into the picture. Fans are not too happy to hear this because they are all really pulling for "Bughead" romance. Betty Cooper is already a conflicted soul, torn between the good girl cheerleader and her alter ego which we got a glimpse of "Dark Betty."
Which couple's relationship will survive?

Whether Betty goes full-on dark to keep her love going with Jughead later in the season has not been revealed at this time. It is a bit of a Romeo and Juliette/ Grease Sandy and Danny thing could go either way.
Archie and Veronica are also going to continue to grow more serious this season. This could later pose a problem considering Roni's mom and Archie's dad have a past and present.
