When does riverdale season 6 come out on netflix

To say that Season 6 of Riverdale was a wild one would be a massive understatement. The most recent season of the popular The CW series saw a little bit of everything including alternate realities, time travel, witchcraft, super-powers, and a stunning twist in the season finale that sets things up for a truly unexpected final season. But now that Season 6 of Riverdale is in the books, the wait for the seventh and final season begins — and with Season 7 not expected until 2023, that's a bit of a wait. Fortunately, fans don't have to wait too long to be able to rewatch Season 6 and get their fix of the Town with Pep.

Season 6 will arrive on Netflix on Sunday, August 7th. That's just one week after tonight's season finale and in keeping with previous seasonal releases. And with the upcoming Season 7 being Riverdale's last, fans will certainly be wanting to take everything in, especially with this season ending with a "big swing".

"It came out of conversations with the studio and The CW and [network president] Mark Pedowitz," Aguirre-Sacasa told TVLine. "When we were renewed for Season 7, though we weren't told at the time it'd be our final season, I think we were all feeling that it might be. When Mark and I talked about it… it was bittersweet. That said, we are so proud of the run we've had, and the call did come as we were working on the last episode of Season 6. We were debating on what the final beats of that episode would be and torn between a very big swing and a quieter ending. And it definitely emboldened us to go for the big swing for Season 7. It's really exciting."

While Season 7 of Riverdale will be a "big swing", Pedowitz has previously said that the series will have an "appropriate sendoff" because they wanted to the right thing for the series and its fans.

"We had a long conversation with Roberto yesterday, who's thrilled by this news," Pedowitz said. "And we're going to treat the show in the manner it deserves. It was an iconic pop culture star, and we want to make sure it goes out the right way and that is the decision. I think they choose that seven years is the right amount, and we want to do the right thing. That's a personal thing. As a fan myself, I do want to do what's right for the show."

If it feels like Riverdale season 6 has been airing forever on The CW, that’s because it has been. Since the start of the COVID pandemic, the network’s schedule has been all over the place. We’re glad they’ve been taking precautions to keep their casts and crews safe as they should. Doing so has made for an incredibly stretched line-up which, of course, has caused delays in CW shows hitting streamers.

Shorter seasons did help with this for some of the network’s series, but their more popular shows like The Flash and Superman and Lois didn’t stay to the 13-episode maximum that other series had to adhere to. Riverdale, clearly, is among the ranks of those that got to bypass that maximum. Though, personally, I can’t say that’s helped its story any.

We’ve been making our way through season 6 since fall 2021 when the “Rivervale” five-episode event introduced us to an alternate universe full of mysteries and an increasingly staggering body count. Viewers have since been dropped back in the town with Pop’s that we know and begrudgingly love and things have only gotten even more weird.

While I won’t spoil the main story being worked through in Riverdale season 6, I can say that Cheryl’s errant spell at the end of season 5 truly did a number on this season’s plot. We’re almost at its end with two more episodes to go. So, when can we expect to see the show’s penultimate season on Netflix? Here’s what we know!

Riverdale season 6 Netflix release date

Season 6 will make its Netflix US debut on Sunday, August 7. If you’ve been holding out to watch the next installment of the series, you’ll have 22 episodes to either binge or savor to your heart’s content. I’ll warn you though, this season jumps many sharks and takes a lot of ambitious leaps. You’re in for a ride!
