One more day, Goon-grounders (Goonders? Groonders?)! I for one am having a hard time deciding whether or not to let the episodes pile up so I can binge later. After the premiere, of course.



Yes Ghengis Clarke, I'll do whatever you say please don't kill me oh god

Reminder that this scene was hard-loving-core:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gs__QQc2rr4

Most shows that have two pretty ladies fight, it might be kinda sexual, their clothes would get strategically ripped, their makeup would stay perfect, etc. But The 100? No. They are CAKED in mud and dirt, blood running down ears and into their hair, into their TEETH as they brain each other with rocks, stab at each other and headbutt and just...drat. Even when Clarke gets the advantage and just rains punches down on the side of her head and they both just look super hosed up. It's properly brutal.

How about weird historical fiction? Try Vampires of the Caribbean

Wanheda: Part One
Bellamy and Kane lead a team into Grounder territory to rescue Clarke, who has bounty on her head; Murphy finds a changed Jaha is on a different mission.

Have this favorable review of the show (some small spoilers) from Entertainment Weekly.

Just as a reminder: they're fighting in a mass grounder graveyard here. A graveyard that Clarke made. She beats Anya by basically rubbing her face in the ashes and bones of her dead warriors. :black101:

Basically every single character in the show has lost someone close to them, family a friend a loved one etc. And they're getting along fine. Jasper knew Maya for 3 weeks. Pull yourself together you freak.

I'd argue that none of the characters are getting along fine. Everyone is still carrying the baggage; I will cede that Jasper is dealing with it in a much worse way than anyone else.

I'd say Clarke takes the prize for Worst Handling of Trauma at the moment. I mean, getting drunk every night? Doing stupid poo poo that might get you killed? Tackling Canadian Pop Stars? Those are all things that even normal people do. Dying your hair red and going off to kill panthers in the wilderness? That's pretty much exclusively done by crazies.

haha the murphster getting weird in the swag bunker. what a way to start the season. the Jaha / Murphy plot is still the best.

Jasper stop being such a poo poo that Maya died. who gives a gently caress

edit: I did like that they mentioned that Lexa not killing the mountain men weakened her position, so the other tribes feel they can act more boldly.

Keep an adversary in the dark about what you're capable of, and he has to assume the worst.
So if the Ice Queen wants to kill Clarke and gain her power, I assume when Clarke kills her she'll become the new Ice Queen.

This is my bet. He was literally handing him the red blue pill. It could also be how she "saved" everyone, think The Library on Doctor Who or Zanarkand in Final Fantasy X. So the CIty of Light is a VR where billions of humans have continued to live and develop civilization since everything blew up. I'm assuming that without adequate power the AI was unable to contact survivors in space or places like Mt Wx; now that Jaha has taken a nuke and turned it into a power source they can now do so and...ok I have no idea how that will benefit anyone in either world but whatevs.

I liked that they explained the reason they were staying in Camp Not Jaha and looting Mt Wx instead of living there was because if they did it would start a war with the Grounders who'd figure "here we go again!" Makes sense.

I was a bit surprised that they kept Abbie on as Chancellor but I suppose that between Kane wanting to be pedantically legal about having handed power off to her plus admitting he'd rather be a strong second banana/organizer. I'm assuming this based on the fact that everyone, including Kane called her "Chancellor" and they just called him "Kane".

It doesn't make that much sense, since they have no reason to pose a threat to the grounders like the Mountain People did.
On the other hand, their betrayal makes a good case for turning on that fog and wiping them the gently caress out.

It makes sense because Mt Weather is basically where the boogeyman lived so the grounders would assume that anyone moving in would probably do more of the same poo poo.

Well it's not a great explanation, but it's better than what you'd have gotten in a non serialized show of 30 years ago, where they would have just never mentioned it again. Or a :bsg: style "We all voted to not live in this ultra civilized, fully functional bunker and instead flew it into the sun."

Also reminder, for insights into the show, check out the 100 Writer's Room twitter. https://twitter.com/The100writers

They drop cool poo poo, like the fact that Clarke did indeed dye her hair with berries.
