Default On the CW network - The 100

Has anybody else watching the series "The 100" playing on the CW network Wed night at 8pm Central time?

The 1st season was on Netflix so I watched it. Not the greatest show but it is a post-apocalyptic (teen) drama set about 100 years after TEOTWAWKI.

I am trying to .......... So much teen angst and love triangle drama.

It is very hard to watch if your not a teen yourself.

Try "Jeremiah" instead.

Jeremiah was good. Damn shame it had so many issues with executive meddling.

I have watched every episode. If you ignored the angsty teenager stuff, there were a few interesting things. Without giving too much away, once we learn about the people at Mt. Weather, things started to get really predictable regarding the Grounders and the Reapers.

The other aspect is the whole thing with the people from the Ark functioning normally. I find it hard to believe they would have the bone density or muscle strength to do as well as they are. Granted, the spinning rings on the Ark would help, but is would not be as strong as normal earth gravity and they should, after generations in orbit, be quite prone to broken bones and rapid fatigue.

Yes, I know it is just television, but it still bugs me a little.

Their immune systems wouldn't be able to with stand all the viruses and bacteria on Earth. Assuming all the originals were excellent human specimens to begin with.

There is the one other thing that is troublesome. Either they want us to believe that severe radiation is a gas and you can be protected from it with NBC gear or something else is causing immediate and debilitating burn like injuries within seconds to one group that others are immune to.

So it ends the season with Jaha finding a nuke under the control of an AI computer with an interactive holographic display. An earlier video suggests that this AI had something to do with starting the nuclear war 100 years ago.

Seems to have gotten to be less of a teen (relationship) drama which is good.

I wish it was Alice from the Hive........ Most underrated evil AI of all time.
