The 100

I feel like I'm being a pest, posting messily in this thread. But episode 4 of season 4 just messed with my emotions!

Octavia is dead! Oh no! Oh. No, Octavia is alive!
 
I am as far as episode 3 of S4 and is it just me or is Jaspar starting to really become annoying. We have had 2 seasons of his selfish, self pitying ways. Really hoping he comes to a nasty end soon.

It's not just you.
It would been such a nice twist if Jasper's staying out in the black rain joke had backfired, and he would have dissolved with a look of pure surprise on his face as the last thing we saw. :mad: :D
 
4.07 Gimme Shelter
Time was on nobody's side here. Total minutes for violins in a soundtrack must have set a new record for a television series.
A bit on the melodramatic and dark side this time around. Is killing a bad guy to save everyone else on the planet justified? Seems like a no-brainer, but not for Abby.
Who would have thought that all it would take for Octavia to turn off her Terminator switch and regain a little humanity is a romp in a cave with Ilian? He doesn't realize that he is, all likelihood, just Rebound Guy.
 
Incidentally, good news, my fellow free-to-air peasants!

The 100 returns to E4 on 5 April.
 
I would say so. I was going to stop a few episodes into the first series, but was dissuaded by someone else who had seen the whole series. Some ropey bits at the start but it's grown on me.

It's a little grimmer than I first expected (not Game of Thrones or anything, just compared to my initial assumption), and that works nicely.

Adaggio for Strings it wasn't. Did not know whether to laugh or cry. The show is at a critical point for it's survival as something worth watching.

On the plus side. No Jaspar this week.
 
4.08 God Complex
More wasted time with Jasper. Although, I can't disagree with his choice for the end-of-the-world countdown.
So much for sacrificing the one for the good of the many. Abby threw that noble concept out the window very quickly when Clarke made herself "the one."

Yes to both.
 
4.09 DNR/4.10 Die All, Die Merrily
Never turn your back on Skaikru.
Octavia's winner-take-all battle royale victory and her inspiring egalitarian speech really lost their punch when Skaikru closed the bunker hatch and condemned the bulk of surviving Humanity to die. Why, oh why, hasn't someone lead-ventilated Jaha's City of Light brainpan?
 
Well, I guess I'm happy it's renewed yet again (that show has nine lives). I'm not much for stuff really aimed at teens, but I've watched my share of shows over the years (Vampire Diaries, Secret Circle (I think that was the name), and now this), mainly because I like to have something every night of the week. Yeah. I'm weird.

Also, Jaha drives me nuts. What is with that guy? Did losing his son make him permanently cray cray? Or is there some sort of remnant of that chip in his head? Ack.

5.01 Eden (a full 11 months after the last episode of season 4 aired)
The early back-and-forth chronology was a little confusing, but I guess it was necessary to show how Clarke got to the 6-years-later situation last seen in the season 4 finale. It looks like the gang is going to somehow get back together.
I may have missed (or just forgotten) where the prison ship originated (orbit?), but it's going to be trouble for both segments of survivors. The ending scene in the bunker reminded me of the Mad Max Thunderdome. I suppose warriors trapped underground for 6 years need a little something to take the edge off.
I thought it was ungrateful that, after a buzzard led Clarke to Eden, she shot the bird and ate it. Of course, their relationship had begun with the buzzard trying to eat her not-quite-dead body. Turnabout is fair play.
 
Be interesting to see what happens in the sixth season.

Just checking I remembered the tag right. Also, I'm Batman

Edited extra bit:
Wonder if they'll keep Diyoza as a main character. I'm guessing that there'll already be human inhabitants on Planet Mongo (or whatever it's called). I'd like alien civilisation/ruins, but we'll see.
