Don’t shoot the messenger, but you’re going to have to wait a while for episode seven of Rivals season two. Blame it on Hulu and Disney+. Everything is bigger in Rivals season two, from the nude scenes and lack of prosthetics to the number of episodes. There’s going to be 12 this time instead of eight, yay! Unfortunately, with the release of episode six on June 5 – marking the midpoint of the season – we’ve got a months-long hiatus to contend with. As you can imagine, people are p*ssed. so let me get this straight. monica is dead, barely any rutag in p1, tony will probably get away with sleeping with maud, declan and cameron didn’t fuck, cameron is mad at taggie instead of rupert, and more declan and maud sex scenes all that + i have to wait 4 months? #rivals pic.twitter.com/EJa2ftEZke — 🦋𝒉𝒂𝒍𝒆𝒚 ✿ 𝒓𝒊𝒗𝒂𝒍𝒔 𝒆𝒓𝒂 ✿ (@TTWEndsx3) June 5, 2026 “Monica dead, Caitlin & Archie know about Maud-Tony’s affair, Cameron now suspects Rupert-Taggie’s relationship, Lizzie & Fred back together & we are supposed to wait four months for the next eps HELLO??” one person said. Another wrote: “So two years between S1 & S2 and now 4 to 5 months between eps in S2? WTF.” “And we are supposed to wait 4 months for more, this is SICK #rivals,” someone else added.
