After binging on all 13 episodes of Riverdale, the finale left me with more questions than answers.
That was despite solving the mystery of who killed Jason, which was pretty much the only plot line driving the entire series in the first half.
Based on the popular comic series Archie, Riverdale went down a much darker path — think a mix between Gossip Girl and Pretty Little Liars.
The climax started with Jason Blossom's death, which was eventually revealed to just be one little broken strand in the town's intricate web of secrets.
That's not all, each family's history was found to be entangled in a dramatic mess that could potentially cost lives and friendships.
Unfortunately, the finale of the season was more concerned with setting the scene for the following season instead of tying up loose ends.
Here are ten questions we want answered:
3. Who shot Fred Andrews?
There might be another death on the horizon, but I’m just hoping that the second season will not be driven by Archie trying to find his dad’s murderer. Not only will it be too similar a premise to the first season, the number one suspect also seems pretty obvious.
The first person to come to mind is Hiram Lodge, who found out about Hermione Lodge and Fred Andrews’ affair and whose entrance is imminent in Season 2.
Considering the number of plot twists in the first season alone, I’m almost willing to bet that the suspect wouldn’t be someone so obvious as Hiram Lodge. I guess I’ll just have to find out in the next season.
Also, getting rid of Fred Andrews would make it easier for Veronica Lodge and Archie Andrews to be together without having to worry about their parents engaging in a forbidden love tryst — is that another potential incest couple in the works?
