The 100: Echoes

February 7, 2017 10:40 AM - Season 4, Episode 1

In the aftermath of the chaos done by ALIE, Clarke struggles with the decision over telling the world of the impending nuclear apocalypse. The Grounders struggle with each other and Echo of Ice Nation uses the chaos as a chance to declare war on the Sky People.

I still struggle with Lexa being dead, it was a very low point for this show, but everything else is so good that I'm sticking with it. The clan politics vs the technological advances are intriguing, and I'm way too invested in the characters to stop now.

When Raven mentioned the second Fukushima disaster in 2048, it was way too real for me, with the recent news that Fukushima radiation level now at unimaginable levels.

OMG. The 100 is back! ((((HUGS THE TV)))))

Yay.... the show about the complete annihilation of the planet and warring factions bent on destroying each other is back to distract me from real life!

Hahahahahaha, I just finished watching the end of season 3 (I had to drag myself back eventually after "Thirteen" but it took awhile) and after that I was all, "fuck, real life is too depressing, I can't take The 100 any more too." I'm still debating whether or not I want to return. Y'all can let me know if it's good, right?

At least everyone is very pretty in the TV genocidal hellscape. Our real life genociders all look like bridge trolls.
