About This Quiz

Ever heard of this "weird" show called "Riverdale?" Well, if you haven't, we can sum it up for you with this quote: "No one's innocent in crime town." Every character has some kind of goofy nickname, and there's always drama or trouble going on as well. But luckily, there's tons of romantic scenes and love interests to balance this out, which is probably why it makes for great TV. So in this "Southside Serpents" quiz, we're going to test your knowledge on the most iconic "Riverdale" quotes!

But be careful, because not all of these quotes are legit. We've mixed some fake ones in just to throw you off, because we want to see if you're a true super fan of this show. So, would you recognize a quote like "Because we're endgame, Archie," or do you think that a quote like "Make like a queen and leave" is the real deal? And speaking of queens, you'll find this quote in the show, which actually sounds like something from "Game of Thrones:" "Follow me, your Gryphon Queen, away from this fortress, and back to the kingdom of Eldervair!" Yeah, we told you it was a weird show. So let's test your knowledge right now with some catchy quotes!
