It is lastly right here: River valley‘s seventh and remaining season is right here. Why is River valley finish, and why now? After all the things from musical performances to serial killers, bear assaults and maple syrup feuds, hasn’t this present confirmed that they’re going to by no means run out of fabric? It is higher than getting canceled with out warning as a result of now the present has time to begin the River valley sequence finale as a lot of a bizarre freak (in case you have not observed!!!!) because it pleases. However I am nonetheless unhappy about it, okay?
Season 7 premieres tomorrow on The CW. (Sure, quickly we can have new episodes of Succession, Yellowjackets, And River valley unexpectedly. It is so much!) Because of some alternate universe/time journey nonsense, the characters have been transported to the Fifties.
“Thank God the ’50s have been simply as loopy as they have been as a result of it was a lot enjoyable to be in that world,” showrunner Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa advised Weekly leisure. “Every season we discover the tropes of a particular style, whether or not it is supernatural, whether or not it is pulp, whether or not it is crime. This yr our style is the Fifties, so we’re in dialogue with the American fantasy of what the Fifties have been versus actuality.” Somewhat than a Massive Dangerous, he stated, “The largest battle is our characters making an attempt to dwell an genuine individualistic life in a interval the place that was very troublesome.” You’ll be able to watch the Season 7 trailer in all its sock hop glory ASAP:
So why is that this the ultimate River valley season?
“I am an enormous supporter of efforts to offer long-running sequence a becoming farewell,” stated Mark Pedowitz, CW chairman and CEO, on an govt name in keeping with TVLine. “We had a protracted discuss with [showrunner] Roberto [Aguirre-Sacasa] yesterday, who may be very pleased with this information, and we’ll deal with the present the best way it deserves… We wish to make certain it goes the best approach […] I believe they too thought seven years was the correct amount. As a fan, I wish to do what’s proper for the present.”
The CW has canceled a ton of exhibits lately, however River valley feels a bit of completely different. That present has been happening for some time. The actors have performed highschool college students, then adults, then highschool college students once more. It is time to transfer on.
The precise variety of episodes within the remaining season hasn’t been introduced, by the best way, however Pedowitz stated “not shortened,” so… no matter which means. Season 1 had 13 episodes, however each subsequent one River valley season had 19-22.
Will there be extra River valley spinoffs?
I have no idea! Katy Keene kinda flopped (no offense) and canceled Netflix The chilling adventures of Sabrina. However I would not be stunned if this wasn’t the tip of the Archie verse on The CW or elsewhere. They create all the things again lately: Charmed, The Vampire Diaries of The originals And legacieseven Liars of unique sin. The door appears open!
