Warning: spoilers ahead for Episode 19 of Riverdale Season 7, called "The Golden Age of Television."
An era is ending on The CW in the 2023 TV season with the upcoming series finale of Riverdale, and the penultimate episode set the stage for the end of the show's wild seven-season run. Season 7 has been set in the 1950s after the comet hurtled toward the Town With Pep at the end of Season 6, with none of the core characters remembering their 21st century lives for most episodes. There have been big questions throughout the season, and "The Golden Age of Television" finally provided some answers with just one episode left... but I'm still befuddled by how Riverdale is handling Betty and Archie.
