Riverdale's prom episode was meant to be one of the final episodes in Season 4 but was postponed due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, which caused production to shut down. Consequently, Season 4 finished three episodes shy of its 22 episode order and was unable to wrap up the mystery of who was the videotape murderer.

Season 5 will also see Archie and the gang graduate from Riverdale High. The series will then jump ahead seven years into their post-college future by Episode 4, showing the gang returning to their hometown for new adventures and thrills.
