With countless episodes of television available to the public at all times, it is a major milestone when a show airs 100 episodes or more.
Shows like Riverdale found that success by gaining an audience based on their connection to the Archie Comics. As Riverdale prepared to air its 100th episode, creator Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa noted that he never set out to make a hit show, telling Entertainment Weekly in December 2021, “At best I thought, ‘This could be a culty kind of show,’ but I wasn’t thinking this will be a 100-episode, multi-season show.”
Another CW project that found success over the years was The 100, a post-apocalyptic show that ran from 2014 until 2020. The series honored the 100th episode milestone by having that be the last episode that concluded the fight for survival.
‘90s hits such as Beverly Hills, 90210, and Friends maxed out at 293 episodes and 236 episodes, respectively during their long runs. Modern Family, which ran from 2009 to 2020, ended with 250 episodes.
