Riverdale's season 3 episode 4 didn't air this Halloween, fans upset, here's why

Fans took to social media to question why Riverdale's much-anticipated flashback episode has not aired yet

If you are wondering why Riverdale's season three episode four titled 'The Midnight Club' is not on Netflix then here's the bad news; the hit CW show is taking a mid-season break. A number of other TV shows including 'NCIS' and 'The Flash,' are also on the list for taking this hiatus mainly because of television coverage for the upcoming midterm elections that will be held on November 6. 

The episode is now slated to air November 7 and given that the past three episodes of season three have already given us so much to digest, the break has only outraged fans who had marked 'Riverdale' as a Halloween must-watch, especially after the introduction of supernatural elements including the cult Farm and the Gargoyle King.
