The 100 (ten years later)

well, i spoke it, so it was destined: i’m rewatching The 100

cheesy and campy as it was i’d still rank this as top tier sci-fi

kinda crazy to think i was watching this alongside The Expanse. hey, a person can love rice cakes

i was a different person ten years ago. i wonder how i’ll feel about it now



edit: this is what insomnia does to a person

I thought it was going to be your top 100 films.

The show takes a bit to get going, but once it does, it is really strong, especially for a show that was on The CW. It has its issues with the too-attractive cast etc., but features a talented bunch of actors. Kudos to its handling of diverse relationships without focusing on them being some sort of issue that needed to be over-analyzed and discussed on screen. People just lived their lives and took things as they came.

the too pretty people had me in stitches when i started it last night. looked like they stepped out of GQ, and Bellamy had his shirt off before the end of episode 1. at least i’m reminded of why i stuck with this show for so long.

just started episode 3 today. really looking forward to seeing these characters develop. i honestly can’t remember who lives or dies or most of the finer details. because there’s just so damn many.

I remember liking Alycia Debnam-Carey in The 100, even started watching Fear the Walking Dead but quit after a couple of episodes.

oh shit! end of episode 3 with Charlotte being a little stabby psycho

man, i love this show!

The body count of the show rivals Game of Thrones.

I'm just on series 3! way behind. Well I think I'm on series 3. I stopped watching it a few years ago to move on to something else... Must go back.

betrayals and lies, lies and betrayals

with a whole lotta PG sex to boot

and the CGI is holding up well

started season 2 last night. the intro getting a hell of an upgrade was a great sign back in the day. and that title music defined those years of my life. almost as important as the Halo music….almost.

Ten years ago, is like another world. I just got my first smartphone then.

Well, Jaha just set off for the City of Light. If he only knew how bad of a mistake that's going to be.

And I forgot how quickly Clarke becomes a cold, cold bitch. I love it!

oh shit! i totally forgot about the AI lady getting the nuclear bomb. oh man, i’m saving that season 3 binge for the weekend.

Clarke pulled a lever, axed more souls than Cersei. take that Mountain Men. no more dueling banjos for you! this one’s for al the Reapers in the house!

Oh dayum! We just buried the gay. I remember when the internet was all up in a stink about Lexa getting killed like 3 minutes after hooking up with Clarke. Just bad writing. I didn’t see anything nefarious and I don’t now either. So glad that controversy didn’t end the show. It was a different time then.

oh good lawd! i entirely forgot about the Eligis prisoners storyline. so this was when it went from outrageous to weird. i love it!

forgot how much of a ride those last two seasons were. but damn did that show get weird. and i forgot: LAME. ASS. ENDING.

did the writers call HBO for tips or something?
