How many episodes are in Riverdale season 5?
There are just seven episodes in Riverdale‘s fifth season, which is a massive drop on previous seasons.
Currently, only five of those episodes are listed on Netflix, though other sources say there are two more afterwards.
The first episode is available to stream, but after that fans will have to wait for each new Thursday to see the next ones.
Here’s what Netflix have published so far:
- Episode one: available now
- Episode two: available January 28
- Episode three: available February 4
- Episode four: available February 11
- Episode five: available February 18
This hasn’t been confirmed – no official announcements have been made about the future of the show.
Speaking in March 2020 to the LA Times, actor KJ Apa said he’ll be on Riverdale “for the next three years,” which suggests there’s more to come.
We’ll update this when we know more.
The fourth season ended on a cliffhanger.
The season was cut short due to the pandemic, so the ending viewers got wasn’t what was planned initially.
The gang were trying to figure out who was sending them video tapes.
It’s revealed that Mr. Honey only dies in Jughead’s imagination, not in reality as Jughead decides he’s no so bad after all and rewrites the story.
The gang start to suspect the person behind the tapes could be someone actually close to them, and the evidence is starting to make it look that way.
Where season five starts, there’s been a big time jump since the prom at features the end of season four.
You can head to Netflix to what season five as each installment drops every Thursday.
The previous four seasons are still available to watch too, should you need to catch up.
Season five is the shortest in length, with the others being between 13 to 22 episodes long.
