I just finished Season 1 of this show, and I have to ask does it get better?
I got sick of it before the end, I liked and enjoyed it's sci-fi premise but the teenage drama and disturbingly constant wrong choices was just off putting.

The grounders are never explained and surprisingly none of them bothers to ask especially Octavia ffs, maybe it'll be explained in season 2 but I won't see it if I think it's more of the same.

So my question is, does it get better?

Help me out cao.

Grounders never explained? The Grounders are the human survivors of the nuclear apocalypse, over time evolution have made them resistant to the radiated Earth's atmosphere. They lived on the surface, the survived on the ground (natural selection aka survival of the fittest), grew their own language from broken English & truncated signposts (eg the town of tonDC is simply from Washington DC). The Grounders have a rather interesting hierarchy, there are 12 tribes with their individual leaders, but the true leader is their Heda, Lexa, who formed a rather unprecedented alliance with all tribes. I binged all two seasons in one go. The thing I like about The 100, is the fact that no one can really be deemed a true hero, they're all grey. Yes, they've made silly decisions, but this Earth is made and ruled by youth, they sent 100 juvenile delinquents to Earth, what did you expect, kids below 18, who were waiting to be spaced, to be the epitome of wisdom? And, the Sky People are immune from the Earth's radiation because they've lived in space, where they've enjoyed solar radiation.

Oh, and the Mountain Men, are the folks who stayed in the underground bunker of Mount Weather, as a result, they have no immunity to the radiation.

Thanks, now I'm more interested interested in seeing season 2, I think that's where most of these exposition are, for example nothing about immunity to radiation is ever mentioned in season 1 and the mountain men only show up at the season finale to kidnap the 100, but i'm definitely go to watch season 2 now.

Clarke is a bisexual, just like Captain Flint in Black Sails, get over it. And seriously, Bellamy?! You could probably pick any other random guy & Clarke would have better chemistry with that person than Bellamy...you could even pick Clarke's sketchbook sef...

You've started watching season 3 yet?

Nope, I'm thinking of binge-watching it instead, but my Tumblr dashboard has been keeping me posted. You do not f**ks with Heda, especially when it comes to Wanheda, she will go 300 on ya ass. See finishing move - Long Live the King fatality.

I no know-o, some of the gifs I've seen for the next episode have me worried. Plus, there are behind the scenes recordings by some fans who live Canada (the country where it's filmed) & they've posted some clips from the season finale. They just wan kill person.

Wow.. What's got you worried about the next episode?

Basically, Clarke & Lexa are looking at something in sadness/sorrow/shock...probably Pike & his vendetta against all Grounders (including the ones sent to help them), so I'm assuming all does not end well, which will obviously affect Clexa & the coalition.

Oh yeah, I read somewhere that pike took some men and killed the 300 grounders that came to protect them. It sure is gonna cause alot of problem..

If this is true, that's a whole lot of problems for the sky people.
Jaha, or whatever his name is should just come on time with his "city of light" crusade and turn them all into zombies.
