It was great!

But I think the decline began in season 2, and the show's just gotten worse since. I don't think it was wokeness per say,

I do. Look what they did to Moose and Cheryl in the name of wokeness. Completely destroyed. Like, there isn't any salvaging these characters now and you can tell by how they're regarded now.

I really hated that they went all in with Archie/Betty. Yuck.

Why? That's what's supposed to happen. The "Will he pick Betty or Veronica?" thing has gone back decades. If anything, they put Betty on the back burner from Archie for way too long on the show.

And did they actually kill Archie? Someone mentioned it in this thread. If true then wow.

Sort of. They did a weird multi-dimensional thing where he got blown up but then un-blown up. I think they were trying to be like Twin Peaks for a minute but the writers weren't really up to the task.
