    For the latest episode
    Now they threw me off count. Are they saying the 14 graves are for those who died by the disease?

    Assuming those 14 are due to the disease, we're now down to 77.

    Both the grounders' and the 100's plans were crap. I mean most of the 100 were heathy again by the time the Grounders even got to the bridge. And the plan to blow the bridge wasn't too well planned considering they left it to the the last minute to plant the bomb, since they only left when they did to go after Raven.

    So that really was the dropship that crippled the Ark that crashed??, what a pointless and short lived rebellion that was.

    I don't know that it was, or it wasn't all of it.
    In the episode description for next week or the week after it says Jaha and Kane are reunited with Abbey. Unless it means they die too ;)

    They got baked out of it two weeks ago.
    Last week they all got drunk and went shooting.
    They can't be surprised they all got sick this week!

    im an ep or two behind but this show really is BSG for people who havn't seen BSG, the workers blowing things up seems so extreme but its like the Arc is the first planet BSG landed on and we've come back in after the flash forwardof them being occupied for some time.

    still a good show

    Haven't caught up on the series yet, it's on netflix. I'm on ep 5.
    They're not too convincing with the blind girl, are they? :confused:
    She's clearly looking around and accurately grabbing hands and stuff

    I suppose it's full of plot holes in general like the aforementioned perfect personal grooming ... but it's still entertaining!

    ^ What blind girl?

    Girl being tested in the med clinic as fully blind, father was one of the volunteers
    Or did I misunderstand and it was just one eye?

    episode 10 & 11, rather impressed with the episodes considering the happenings these teenagers are dealing with



    Eliza Taylor discusses 'The 100' and the 'insane' twist for the finale
    What can you tease about the finale?

    Eliza: The finale is epic. I haven't seen it yet, but I'm really excited to see it. What I like about it is it's two parts. The two episodes together are like a feature film of their own, which is so cool. I don't even know what to say. The biggest twist yet is coming for sure, so stay tuned.

    Is there a big cliffhanger?

    Eliza: Yeah. There is. It's crazy. I want to tell you, but I can't. It's insane. I'm really excited to see how it turned out

    Liking this series alot.I'd say that Murphy was turned by the grounders and is a spy.How many episodes are left does anyone know?


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 23,931 Mod ✭✭✭✭TICKLE_ME_ELMO


    ^ Just 2 more to go, which, as the post says above there, is a 2 part season finale. They way this show is structured though all the episodes kind of run into one another so it's kind of like a 13 part season finale.

    THE 100 CLIP: CLARKE LEARNS MORE ABOUT THE GROUNDERS... AND THE DANGER SHE'S IN
    an exclusive clip for you from this week's episode, the first of a two-part finale. Check out what happens when Clarke (Eliza Taylor) and her Grounder captor, Anya (Dichen Lachman), encounter someone familiar to Anya, giving Clarke more insight into the Grounders but also reason to fear for her immediate safety


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,296 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    So think we're now on 76.

    Was pretty much shouting at Clarke to just get moving after Lincoln told them to run. But nope, she had to stand and look in the cart and discuss what she saw.

    So the Grounders don't see to have Monty, unless the second group that took over from Sierra's group have him. Thought he might have been in that cart, then I would've forgiven her for stopping. :)

    So however many we lose next week will all be replaced plus the rest to bring us back up to 100 when Arkfall happens, to steal a term from another show?


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 23,931 Mod ✭✭✭✭TICKLE_ME_ELMO


    I have to say the Ark's plan to save themselves is pretty dumb. I like those guys but I almost hope they die just for how dumb that plot is.

    I was also shouting at Clarke to move her arse instead of looking in the carts. Although, I did think when they first mentioned the carts we were going to be subjected to them riding the carts out of the tunnels like some 90's adventure movie.

    I have no idea who the Mountain Men are but I hope Monty's with them and not in those carts being gnawed on by Reapers!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,296 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Well I suppose the thing with the ark is that they'll die for sure if they don't do anything, but they have a small chance otherwise. Of course they'll somehow manage to land near the kids

    One thing's for sure anyway - Raven had better not die otherwise they're screwed since as an engineer, she's naturally an expert in all things electrical and, for some reason, munitions.
    Though at least she's trained as an engineer. Remind me what Clarke's qualifications are again as a doctor/surgeon? I don't think we ever saw her even working with her mum before being locked up for however long she was. I'm pretty sure if you heard someone say "Stand back, my mum's a doctor!" you wouldn't be filled with confidence. Makes you wonder what the other kids' parents work as


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 23,931 Mod ✭✭✭✭TICKLE_ME_ELMO


    ^ In the episode were Clarke was removing the knife from Finn while talking to Abby on the Ark it was mentioned, or implied, that Clarke had been working with her mother for some time as a trainee doctor. I suppose you can't really go to Med School for 6 years and then intern at a hospital on the Ark.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 789 ✭✭✭mafaa


    the Ark's plan at least give them hope to unite with their children, seem that it will likely to break apart with people scatter in different locations with casualties ; Abby & Kane seem likely to survive

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,536 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    Great finale. The twist at the end will add a whole new texture to season 2.


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 23,931 Mod ✭✭✭✭TICKLE_ME_ELMO


    Just watched it. Holy ****!

    I thought The Reapers would be where they were going next season. Then I thought the guys coming down from The Ark would be where they were going next season. Then they that ending in!

    I hope nobody who looked like dying is actually dead!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,207 ✭✭✭Sudden Valley


    pretty cool having the radiohead tune at the end there. Looks like they are really changing the dynamic of the show- won't now be a bunch of kids trying to survive in the wild. One of the most enjoyable new series of this year.


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 23,931 Mod ✭✭✭✭TICKLE_ME_ELMO


    ^ I don't mind the idea of it going a whole different direction next season but I don't like the idea of everyone being separated for ages. Part of what works so well with this show is the different dynamics between the characters. If you've got Clarke, Monty and probably Jasper and Raven locked up in the quarantine place, and Octavia off with Lincoln, Bellamy and Finn who knows where you lose a lot of the personal relationships that developed over the course of season 1.

    That ending kind of reminded me of the very underrated Jeremiah for anyone who remembers that show.

    Looking forward to see where they will go from here.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,296 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    No! They're not allowed to end the season like that!

    I gave up on counting in that episode. :)

    Think one of the most interesting points from the ending is they know Clarke's name.

    Indeed. Have they been secretly in contact with the Ark all along? Did they know exactly who was coming down and when? Or, have they just been spying on them since they landed, or did Monty squeal and give them all the details?

    Thankfully it's due back in "the fall" so not too long to wait for answers.

    EDIT: Interesting that they're doing "more than 13 but less than 22" episodes for season 2. I'm glad they're not going for a full on 22 episodes but I wonder how many exactly there will be?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,049 ✭✭✭gazzer


    Id say they will do around 16 episodes. Prob something like 7 before Christmas and then take a break and show the last 9 from around March


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,987 ✭✭✭✭expectationlost


    the body count in this show is pretty brutal

    The difference in quality from the first episode to the last episode is telling. I was considering switching off after a few eps but I'm glad I stuck with it. The writing, dialogue and acting was quite poor early on...but it got better as the show got darker.

    Looking forward to this coming back. That cliffhanger with the mountain men was very "Fallout". All that was needed was a robot president and I'd think I was back in the wasteland. :P

    Definitely. It's only at the end of Ep3 that it really takes off.

    mine was after episode 5 onwards

    Starts tonight on E4 if anybody feels like watching again.

    Starts tonight on E4 if anybody feels like watching again.

    Just saw the first episode there. it's pretty poor, despite having an interesting idea. The acting wasn't terrible, sort of par for the course if it was a CW show (Is it? it certainly has that feel) but the dialogue was awful. Plenty of these people do some really stupid things and it seems to want to be a teen drama more than a sci-fi survival show...like a cross between hunger games and lost but aimed at the 90210 crowd. and maybe that's the problem, if it was aimed at a slightly older audience, they wouldn't have to worry about all this silly space/social degradation (i.e. interesting) stuff getting in the way of all these sexy seventeen year olds and their raging hormones.

    it definitely has potential so i'll keep an eye on it and reassess a few episodes in.


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 23,931 Mod ✭✭✭✭TICKLE_ME_ELMO


    ^First two episodes are not great at all but it starts to improve in episode 3 and then really takes off in 4 and 5. It's worth sticking with it.


  • Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 9,735 Mod ✭✭✭✭Manach


    Fairly minor fare so far, watching to see when all the mutated wildlife eat the pretty Eloi people.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,594 ✭✭✭Mal-Adjusted


    Well, saw the second episode yesterday. it's...alright. some of the characters are pretty decent but there's still plenty of stupid. Some of the "kids" on the surface are honestly too stupid to survive there.

    I do get an "Earth 2" feel about it if anyone remembers that show?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,101 ✭✭✭NUTZZ


    In case it hasn't been mentioned already, The 100 Season 2 premieres October 22nd at 9PM in the US
    "We believe in the storytelling of [Season 1] that was only 13 episodes," Pedowitz says. "There will be only 16 for this year so [executive producer] Jason [Rothenberg] could do the stories that he needed to do in a very quick fashion to get it out there."

    As for how dark and violent the series became quickly into Season 1, Pedowitz is a fan of the risks Rothenberg has taken, and how it's paid off for the network.

    "We felt that with 'The 100' under Jason Rothenberg's showrunning that he had done something we were looking to get to," Pedowitz says. "He made a gritty show, something that was maybe not unique at first, but he made it unique to ourselves and it had a solid following. We appreciate the critical reviews that we received. And more importantly, it had a very strong digital following."

    finally got around to watching episode three. vast improvement on what's come before. Especially the ending.
    Killing off Wells was quite balsy and i really didn't see it coming.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,101 ✭✭✭NUTZZ


    Loved the landing scene from Episode 1, perhaps because they chose a cracking song in 'Radioactive'



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,503 ✭✭✭✭Also Starring LeVar Burton


    Have just binge-watched the whole season in the last few days... Absolutely loved it. Very much looking forward to season 2 - although I may have to go out and read the book before that airs...

    I wouldn't bother with the book. I've read the odd extract and it's not very good. The TV show has only taken the very basic premise of the book and gone in a totally different direction.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,788 ✭✭✭tvnutz


    Just finished watching it all over the past week. First few episodes...awful, pure rubbish. From then on...okay, but nothing more than that. Anyone comparing it to BSG...that is an absolute insult to BSG which is a million times this show will ever be. Someone mentioned its for the 90210 crowd, which is definitely there.

    That's not to say it could have potential, interesting premise. And the cliffhanger leads to interesting possibilities. One thing that annoyed me so much was they basically become mates with a grounder, Lincoln, why do you not ask him any questions at all??? How is the earth habitable? How did they survive full out nuclear war? radiation stays for hundreds if not thousands of years...there are deformed animals but the air and water are fine, why? Octavia, maybe ask the lads these questions before you screw him. Stupid plot holes wreck my head.

    Not sure what E4 are at showing repeats in the middle of the day. Episode 4 is on now and they've edited the crap out of it. I saw the end of it the other night around 9, I think, and they'd even cut the Clarke/Finn sex scene from the end.
