‘Riverdale’ Season 3 Finale Live Stream: How To Watch Online for Free

The Season 3 finale of Riverdale airs tonight on The CW at 8 p.m. Eastern (7 p.m. Central.) The episode is called Chapter Fifty-Seven: Survive the Night. After some of the big plot twists that happened last week, you’ll likely want to watch the finale live so you aren’t spoiled on a thing.

If you don’t have cable, you can watch a live stream of the CW on your computer, phone, Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV or other streaming device via one of the following cable-free, live-TV streaming services:

If you can’t watch live, FuboTV comes with 30 hours of Cloud DVR (with the ability to upgrade to 500 hours), as well as a “72-Hour Lookback” feature, which allows you to watch most shows up to three days after they air even if you forgot to record them.

‘Riverdale’ Finale Preview

Here are some clips for the finale tonight:

In the preview Archie says, “you’re nuts,” but a lot of fans are saying that about the writers because of how crazy things have gotten lately. Here are some spoilers from last week’s episode and minor spoilers for plots you’ll see tonight. 

We discovered that Jason Blossom might still be alive, somehow, and the Gargoyle King. Some still think it’s a big trick, kind of like Polly was pretending to be Dark Betty. It’s tough to imagine that the real Jason would put his sister Cheryl in any kind of danger.

Meanwhile, Betty’s dad Hal Cooper really is still alive and the crazed Black Hood again. But this time rather than being smart about his murder sprees, he’s just trying to kill Betty, pretty much.

Hiram is still the big bad and was just arrested after Veronic set him up, and he’s vowing revenge. Veronica rejected Archie, who was developing feelings for her again. Betty and Jughead are still going strong though.

For the finale, it looks like Archie, Veronica, Betty, and Jughead were invited to meet with the Gargoyle King. Showrunner Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa told Decider that part of the finale is a version of Most Dangerous Game, where the characters are hunted in the woods. They originally hoped to do this in episode 5 of the season but had to delay.

Oh yeah, and we learned that The Farm is harvesting organs. Remember when the show’s biggest controversy was whether Archie was going to play football or be a musician? That was a long time ago.

The show’s already been renewed for Season 4 and that is great news. The news was announced by The CW at the beginning of 2019.
