10 TV Shows That Are FINALLY Ending

7. Riverdale

It's been something of a running joke that nobody hates Riverdale more than the actors starring in it, and with the show being renewed for a seventh and final season back in March, many remarked that the young cast members were finally free from this commitment.

There's little denying that The CW's supernatural drama series started to go off the rails in its third season with a glut of increasingly silly storylines, though fans are sharply divided on whether this was a good thing or not.

To some, it elevated Riverdale into the canon of guilty pleasure schlock, while some felt it strayed too far from the comparative modesty of its earlier seasons.

In recent years in particular, the Riverdale cast hasn't made much of an effort to disguise their own only half-joking disdain for the series, and given that many of the primary cast members are gaining momentum outside of the show, their eagerness to move on is understandable.

There will be those who miss Riverdale and its flagrant trashiness, yet its time to wrap up feels thoroughly overdue.
