Spoilers ahead for the series finale of Riverdale, called "Goodbye, Riverdale."
A long, unpredictable, and often bizarre era has ended on The CW with the series finale of Riverdale, which spent its seventh and final season with the characters transported into a 1950s timeline with them all back in high school again. The penultimate episode with its pilot callbacks explained why they could never go back to where the Season 6 finale left off for them in 2022, and "Goodbye, Riverdale" delivered a time jump to finish the story with an 86-year-old Betty revisiting a day from senior year with the help of angel Jughead before dying and arriving in The Sweet Hereafter. It was an emotional hour of endgame reveals, but fans who tuned in on The CW haven't seen the full finale story yet.
