The Grounders are semi-feral tribal hillbillies that could get absolutely loving smoked by any reasonable advanced group that wanted to mess with them. Like they were literally a crop for Mt. Weather, that's how much all their warrior bullshit matters. They are walking potatoes. What did Octavia ever do to you that was so terrible you'd wish her leadership of those gently caress ups?

It's more like when the Vikings tried to colonize Canada.

It didn't work out since despite their big technology advantage the vikings were badly outnumbered and the indians also used guerilla tactics against them.

Probably the other big reason why the native americans lost was due to diseases such as smallpox decimating 75% to 90% of the population base. Good luck fighting off invaders after the basic population base got almost wiped out.

Best moment of joy from S2 was when Murphy was stuffing his face with food after reaching the lighthouse.

I hope the season ends with Jaha finally managing to sacrifice himself for the greater good and waking up as an AI.

this is the origin story for a pretty crazed AI

For the OP: A nice gif of Jasper loving murdering some dude in cold blood. Couldn't find a larger one but I feel it gets the point across. :black101:



The whole breakout scene in which the 47 knock-off the guards was awesome

Buddies recommended me to start watching this. Holy poo poo the first few episodes are a pain to watch! :barf:

Oddly enough, after those few episode it feels like an entirely different show. I wonder what changed. :confused:

Well it's a bait and switch.

The pilot makes you think it's another beautiful people CW show with a cheesy YA fiction premise but a few episodes in the bleaker tone starts to take over.

But she doesn't actually follow any of their beliefs or culture or anything. She can't really, because it's all so tied in to growing up on the ground. She likes the way they dress and fight.

It should be a plot point, culture appropriation in a world with only 2 cultures.

she's the worf of the show

So that's three out of four Clarke love interests dead. Watch yer back Bellamy.

Clarke is basically the female future version of the guy from Death Wish.
