‘Riverdale’ Renewed for Season 7!

The CW is making renewal and cancellation decisions, and among those on the renewal list is none other than Riverdale! The Archie Comics-based drama is coming back for a seventh season!

Riverdale is in the midst of airing season 6 and recently returned from a four-month hiatus. The cast and showrunner will also be appearing at the annual PaleyFest on Saturday, April 9.

New episodes air on Riverdale‘s new night and time, Sundays at 8 p.m. ET/7 p.m. CT on The CW.

This might be the last one. Most of the actors contracts are up, and could leave.

Seven years is not a bad number to end on, IMO.

[Dark Avenger]

It isn't bad at all. It would have a nice run.

I agree. Hopefully, after Legends and Batwoman got canceled. It'll prepare this show to not risk cliffhangers. Just end it at 7, even if they think it could be renewed. But judging from the cast, most are ready to move on. So it might end in S7.

Riverdale is one of the few lucky CW shows to survive the bloodbath. 

Still, if I were the producers and writers, I'd be thinking about wrapping this show up on its own terms.  If Plec's show wasn't safe (yes, Legacies got axed), then all bets are off.

Agreed. Smart move to do that with S7. Since most of the cast contracts are up after S7. Best end it on their own terms.
