I hear Riverdale was like that.

    I get what you mean, but tbf, it just continued the theme of “science beyond your comprehension is magic”. And that theme is present throughout pretty much the whole show. But yes, the final season was much more heavy handed with that stuff. And Bellamy’s character? Oof.

      I haven’t read the books, but even in season 1 with the Space Walker arc which is way out of pocket for the show in season 1. Then it felt like they had to outdo this event.

      And at the end of the books, it becomes a different series altogether culminating with the god awful ending.

      im not even sure if I watched all the seasons of that show and im not sure I have to will to find it and figure out if I have ones to still watch. I have that with elementary as well and it was overall a better show.

      Seriously, when the show starts out with the world having ended and potentially the human race still, you kind of have to keep topping or building on that every season so The 100 had no choice but to keep getting more and more crazy or just more insular. To be honest I thought they did fine with it being a CW show and the more limited-ish budget and actor pool they have available compared to HBO or other networks for example.
