The 100 (2014)
Gets better and better
So this show definitely isn't a slam dunk right out the gate and actually, if not for the reviews on IMDb, I probably would have given up on it after the second episode. I'm SO glad I didn't. Say what you will about the show's science, or lack thereof, what it lacks in proof, it makes up for with compelling characters and a plot that continues to surprise me with each new episode. Hardcore sci fi fans will probably find it lacking, but those looking for a rich plot and characters to endlessly root for (I'm looking at you Clarke) will enjoy it for what it is. Not gonna lie, I LOVE how woman dominated the show is. The women run things and it's never an issue. Never a question. That's just the way it is. It seems to be one of the most unapologetically diverse shows currently on the air today. Sometimes the characters change too rapidly and before you can blink, that character you loved last episode is now a raging jerk, but by the next episode you're back to loving them. It can definitely make your head spin a little, but it somehow works. Now of course it is the CW, so the kids (and adults for that matter) are all hot, because of course they are. But hey, you won't hear any complaints from me. And I love that even the minor characters have some depth attached to them. You will root for Clarke tirelessly because as far as heroes go, she's a bad ass. And even when she does the absolute wrong thing, you still love her and want her to win. Okay, I could clearly go on and on about this show but I won't. Do yourself a favor and give it a chance. If you're not hooked by the fifth episode, I'll buy you an ice cream. Okay, I won't buy you an ice cream, but trust me, it's worth it and you'll be glad you did.
