Riverdale Fans Lost All Hope For Bearable Show Finale
A proper ending is the last thing this fandom expects from the show.
With season 7 of Riverdale hitting screens on March 29, fans are fully prepared to see if their conspiracy theories will come to life.
The trailer for the last season was confusing enough, as it seemed to send the characters back to the 50s. However, on a show like Riverdale, you should be prepared for anything, because nothing is really impossible.
Fans are certainly hoping to see their favorites thrive and their storylines logically wrap up in season 7 as Riverdale comes to an end.
But after spending over 6 years in this fandom and learning how the writing usually works, the audience doesn't really get their hopes up too high.
"I hope for cohesion and happy endings for our characters. What I expect – baffling changes in character personalities where they make sudden decisions that go against how their personalities were written, secondary story arcs shoehorned in and then abandoned midway through with no explanation, and new characters popping up that solve a problem and then disappear just as fast instead of the writers offering clever solutions," Redditor murderedbyaname said, explaining how they feel about the ending.
The opinion seems to be quite popular among other Riverdale viewers, as the comment got the most upvotes on the topic.
It's not just fans who are constantly calling out the Riverdale production team for lazy writing and a general habit of forgetting to finish stories they start.
These have been the main criticisms of previous seasons, and one of the most likely reasons for the show's low ratings.
Since Riverdale is the reason behind one of the largest CW fandoms, it could also be suggested that the decline in the show's quality was also one of the reasons for The CW's overall decline.
Although there are not many hopes for the flawless ending that would be both logical and explain everything that happened in the previous seasons, the most loyal fans are still patiently waiting to see it.
