She's still their only doctor so her plot armor is the strongest of all. At least until they find another certified doctor. Jackson is still in training / doesn't have all her years of knowledge / can't do surgery / something else.

We'd like to keep Clarke's insane love of murder, thank you very much. In fact I say we ratchet it up a couple of notches. Wanheda done gone interplanetary!

Between Bellamy and Clarke they have a combined kill count of 1900 mooks. e: It's actually 1600, she shares Mt Weather with Bellamy.

Bellamy is currently in the lead, by 95. I hope Clarke can bring it home for the title.

e: She took all of season 4 off killing too.

Are you sure? I don't think that tracks.

Just making up dates:
The colonists left in the year 2000 right before humanity nuked itself and arrived at Alpha in 2100(100 years in transit).
The show starts in 2100.
Our heroes gently caress around and kill the planet then leave in like 2105 then arrive at 2205(100 years in transit).

The show starts in 2149

Elgius 3 left before the Apocalypse, that's all we know. Took MerkCru 75 years to get there, Monty was in orbit around earth for a lifetime. They went under in 2156, Jordon went under in 2184, Harper died in 2206 and he set them on the way, They wake up in 2281.

The Elgius 4 mutiny was in 2047 and came back minus one engine in in 2156, so you can hand wave as much as you need to for how long it took the Elgius 3 to get where it was going. If it left around 2020-30, you have all the time you need.

FInally got to catch it.

All the Clarke-bashing, especially from Murphy, was awesome. Murphy in general was in rare form!

I also loved how everyone just spent the episode sniping at each other for all the poo poo they pulled last season, or in Octavia's case right back to The Ark, Jaha, and everything else. She has not changed a bit. :allears: Though it was nice to see Kane call her out on burning the algae farm.

Good idea to put Kane back on ice until we find out if The Passage is cancelled. He can always come back in 6 episodes or next season or never. Hoping it's soon, not that I want to see The Passage go because I'm enjoying it, but I'm Team Kane all the way.

Without Kane though, it was nice to see Bellamy in an assured leadership role. A far cry from his hedonistic leader persona of the first few episodes.

They were very on point with the comparisons to them making planetfall to the S1E1, right down to the gold line of the night "Does anyone have anything better than "We're back, bitches"? :swoon:

The actor they cast as Monty's kid is very much like him in speech/mannerisms. Good casting and acting there.

This is an interesting article speculating on possible connections between Eligius/Becca/A.L.I.E./Second Dawn and the colonists on Alpha:
https://www.hypable.com/the-100-season-6-eligius-3-two-suns-second-dawn/

They rightly say that Second Dawn founder Bill Cadogen appeared to have gone into the Bunker with his peeps (remember Becca begging him not to burn her at the stake), but with cryogenic suspension possible on this show, and all kinds of stuff showing up from before the apocalypse, I have a dark horse theory he might show up still. I said it before and I'll say it again: you don't cast a guy like John Pyper-Ferguson for a cameo. I can easily see that being some thing these writers would do, to pull him up a few seasons later as a Big Bad.

the guy who plays Monty's kid auditioned for Monty, he did an AMA the other day and he was super nice and answery.

She mentioned that the trees absorb the dead -- at least they would have absorbed the insects, and she expected that they'd have taken most of the ground team too.


There's some good plot beats midseason, but I think the season was ultimately sabotaged by a weak ending because there's basically no third act. Octavia makes a pretty good villain though (for the most part).

Murphy lives.

wasn't the best season, but it had some big die, that's always fun.

I haven't read the replies for this week's episode but I'm getting ready to watch ep 3 right now.

I guess it's weird to call The 100 a show with very few colors, but I didn't really notice it until we got to this season. It's really refreshing to have more than just browns, greens, and metals to look at, and I genuinely can't believe they went with something as batshit as a loving castle. I love this show.

Murphy continues to be the GOAT. If he dies in this next episode, I'll riot. I'm really conflicted about feeling bad for the Sanctum citizens who got murdered before they could do anything (though congrats to 2/3 for getting a union card with their sentence of dialogue). The dude yelling for them to wait right before he got shot was actually pretty harrowing, so, hopefully I'll have a more concrete answer as to whether or not I care soon.

Murphy ain't dying. He's the audiences avatar.

I see those giant anime robot drawings in the garage. I hope it's foreshadowing for the mecha battle in the finale :japan:

Gj Octavia your bloodlust got that little girl killed in the crossfire. I can only hope that Octavia and Diyoza's adventure will be as good as Murphy and Jaha's.

:rip: Clarke for now? They said it was permanent but they will probably reverse it somehow since Clarke isn't a real nightblood. Or maybe Clarke will murder the Josephine personality because why not. Death to Primes!

From what I can remember Clarke became a nightblood by getting a bone marrow transplant from Luna. I think the treatment was also experimental or untested? Anyways I'm guessing the Primes don't know this is possible otherwise they wouldn't have been so worried about running out of hosts. Basically what I'm saying is I hope this becomes a rehash of season 2 only instead of trying to get their bone marrow for radiation resistance, they are trying to inject sky cru with nightblood marrow because they are more compatible and less likely to die from the procedure due to :techno:.

Maddie will unfuck that software update with her flame, i'm almost confident.

Remember, they are jumping into the bodies when they are already in there 20s, so 30-40 years per body puts them at 60. Obviously the dangerous planet is a factor, add in that they are probably pretty reckless since they know they are coming back, and really if you were an immortal shitbag who could jump into a 20 year old body would you really want to stick around in your 70 or 80 year old one?

Maybe the old geezer bodies were taken as a last resort, they had a que and they were running out.

Oh man, the last episode was one of the best in my opinion in all of the show. I loved Clarke being a badass and I love how they made it clear early on that she would totally loving wreck Josephine in a fight if it was about that. The new mythos and planet are really great. This show finally managed to get its magic back after losing it during the horrific torture-misery-conga of S3/4 for me.

Now gently caress those immortal bitches up. You have a whole ship full of people who have spent the last few years or so doing nothing but murder and survival. Screw being better, let's show them how it's done on Earth.

Shield had a two in one head thing going on and that was one of the best episodes too.
