Revenge will be sweet when we watch Riverdale season 4 online tonight and see this season's final episode. Archie (K.J. Apa), Betty (Lili Reinhart), Veronica (Camila Mendes) and the whole gang wrap up their senior year in murderous style.
In the Riverdale season 4 finale episode, titled "Chapter Seventy-Six: Killing Mr. Honey," Jughead (Cole Sprouse) receives a letter from the University of Iowa asking him to submit a story. So, he gets to work writing a twisted tale about the gang's revenge fantasy against Principal Honey (guest star Kerr Smith) for all the ways he's ruined their senior year.
The Riverdale season 4 finale starts at 8 p.m. Eastern today (Wednesday, May 6) on The CW.
This episode wasn't meant to be the season 4 finale. Riverdale had to shut down production, like many other TV shows and films, due to the pandemic. When it shut down, Riverdale had filmed 19 of the planned 22 episodes.
Since the show was unable to complete season 4 production, that means quite a few storylines will be left dangling. Stars Skeet Ulrich (who plays FP Jones) and Marisol Nichols (Hermione Lodge) are both leaving Riverdale after this season, but the finale does not explain their departure.

Madchen Amick, who plays Alice Cooper, directed the now-last episode and told Entertainment Weekly, "Obviously we’ll pick up back up next season. They’ll have to adjust some storytelling with what they had planned at the end of this season."

How to watch Riverdale season 4 finale anywhere, with a VPN
Just because The CW isn't available everywhere doesn't mean you need to miss the Riverdale season 4 finale. If you're away from home and can't use your regular services, the right VPN (virtual private network) can help you stream the teen drama.
We've evaluated services, and the best VPN is ExpressVPN. It meets the VPN needs of the vast majority of users, offering outstanding compatibility with most devices and impressive connection speeds.

How to watch Riverdale season 4 finale in the US
The Riverdale season 4 finale starts at 8 p.m. Eastern today (Wednesday, May 6). But you won’t need a digital antenna or cable TV package to watch it live.
If you've cut the cord, you can watch the Riverdale finale live on several live TV streaming services, including Hulu With Live TV, YouTube TV, Fubo TV and AT&T TV Now, all depending on your local region.
Of these options, we recommend Hulu, which also offers original programming like Little Fires Everywhere and Handmaid's Tale. It's also got a 1-week free trial. YouTube TV is better for those who want to record everything, as it's got an unlimited Cloud DVR. We do not recommend AT&T TV Now.
You can also watch Riverdale episodes on demand via The CW app, which is free and does not require a subscription.
