the media consumption ecosystem is so delicate. it simply could not take a loss like the cw’s riverdale. should riverdale cease to exist, what show will be brought up whenever something else gets cancelled and fans are looking for someone to blame? without riverdale, who will fill the void that the end of glee left - the void that can only be filled by ridiculous covers of pop songs and musical numbers? how will the wii music face zooming question marks typed youtube video industry sustain itself without riverdale’s continued existence? who will employ the milfs and pilfs who starred in horror movies in the 1980s once riverdale ends? society needs riverdale more than riverdale needs society.
