      Audience Reviews for Riverdale: Season 5

      • Jan 13, 2023
        This season had it's moments but it seems to be the least relateable out of all of them.
      • Jan 05, 2023
        Season 5 was the most boring season of almost anything i've seen in quite some time. It told us that the whole season might be about aliens? But then they retracted that and made it a metaphore for traum, then they retracted there explanation and it was all a trick. I mean all it did was focus on the characters and it really tells you how boring the characters are, and the show really isn't interesting without some existential crisis going on.
      • Sep 03, 2022
        It really doesn't get much worse than this....unless of course you're season 6.
      • Aug 04, 2022
        It's full of musicals from people who can't sing don't watch it while wearing headphones
      • May 19, 2022
        THAT CLIFFHANGER IS TOO MUCH.
      • Apr 23, 2022
        The first 3 episodes of this season should've been the final episodes of season 4. it was a huge mistake skipping the college years. Ala Glee and Scream Queens. This show went off the rails, and lost it's identity.
      • Apr 23, 2022
        The beginning of the season is great, and the sequel is completely different from what we knew in the series, and very interesting for fans of the series.
      • Apr 12, 2022
        Sobresale más que sus últimas dos temporadas, pero no ayuda a recuperar una esencia original o fresca
      • Apr 05, 2022
        Me ha gustado mucho esta temporada, he sentido una mejora increible con respecto a la temporada anterior, la cual me parecio mas floja. Se siente mucho mas cercana a lo que era en las primeras temporadas que fue cuando me encantaba el programa.
      • Apr 03, 2022
        Parece que deu uma melhorada a série Riverdale, tirando aquela briga eterna de pai x filha de Veronica e Hiram, o resto parece estar caminhando para algo, como a procura da irmã de Betty Cooper e como isso afetou totalmente a mãe dela (Alice Cooper), não era por nada pois ela a estava procurando há tempos desde a temporada, soube que já está acontecendo a 6º, mas a pergunta é para onde a série está indo?
