“I think it was modern and fitting. Them not ending up together, in a way, is more honest. It also helps you remember that each one of these relationships is equally important in its moment. If anyone ended up with anyone, it would say somehow that it’s more powerful. [Creator] Roberto [Aguirre-Sacasa] is such a theater fan, and you can really feel Our Town in it — with a quad. It’s still Riverdale! I thought it was kind of amazing choice, and they kind of all end up in the afterlife together. That allows people to root forever.”
For these questioning why we didn’t see Archie and Jughead kiss, properly, Sarah famous to the outlet that it’s “too hot for TV,” including:
“I think there’s a fantastic, fantastic amount of LGBTQ representation on the show.”
