10 TV Universes That Make No Sense

10. Riverdale

Ah Riverdale, please just come out and admit that you have no idea what you're doing! From cringy and unrealistic dialogue to ludicrous storylines, this show has it all.

Fans have always been pretty lenient when it comes to the contents of Riverdale, but as of very recently, the last straw has come for many of them. The show is currently on its 5th season, and besides that being completely baffling, it has also proven that the showrunners have no idea what's been going on since, probably, season 1.

It was announced at the end of season 4 that the show was going to jump forward 7 years so that it can age up its clearly adult actors to a more realistic place. This, for many fans, seemed like a positive step, resetting the story and giving everything a fresh start.

But when the time jump happened, a careless line of dialogue revealed that the jump takes place in 2021. So, that means that before this, the show took place in 2014 right? Wrong. Because just a few episodes before this, in season 4, it was explicitly stated that the year was 2020. And not only this but it was also stated in the episode that the main characters were born in 2001, making them 20 in 2021... but the time jump states that they're 25... Huh?

Yeah, there is no explaining your way out of this one.
