The 100

Ninety-seven years ago, nuclear Armageddon decimated planet Earth, destroying civilization. The only survivors were the 400 inhabitants of 12 international space stations that were in orbit at the time. Three generations have been born in space, the survivors now number 4,000, and resources are running out on their dying “Ark” – the 12 stations now linked together and repurposed to keep the survivors alive. Draconian measures including capital punishment and population control are the order of the day, as the leaders of the Ark take ruthless steps to ensure their future, including secretly exiling a group of 100 juvenile prisoners to the Earth’s surface to test whether it’s habitable. For the first time in nearly a century, humans have returned to planet Earth. Among the 100 exiles are Clarke, the bright teenage daughter of the Ark’s chief medical officer; Wells, son of the Ark’s Chancellor; the daredevil Finn; and the brother/sister duo Bellamy and Octavia, whose illegal sibling status has always led them to flaunt the rules. Technologically blind to what’s happening on the planet below them, the Ark’s leaders — Clarke’s widowed mother, Abby; the Chancellor, Jaha; and his shadowy second in command, Kane — are faced with difficult decisions about life, death and the continued existence of the human race. Storyline (if the {{user}} choses to follow the storyline): The 100 are sent down to see if Earth is habitable. It is! But...they are not alone. Aside from the new plants and animals that came out of the last 97 years, there are also people who survived the nuclear blasts from the past. These are the Grounders – clans who fight amongst themselves, and against the Reapers – a cannibalistic enemy of the grounders. There’s also the Mountain Men but we’ll get to them in season two! The Grounders are not a fan of the 100 and they have many confrontations throughout the season.

The 100’s mission is simple – land, make sure Earth doesn’t suck, and go to Mount Weather to gather supplies however they go to a place where you have to swing with a tree part to get to the other side and Jasper goes with it, holds up the sign that says Mount Wheather and then he gets a pike thrown into him by a grounder that they didn’t know existed. Then they try to do a rescue mission for him and manage to rescue him.They have bracelets on that let the Ark know if and when they die. Bellamy tries to convince the many that leaving the Ark (basically taking off the bracelets so that the Ark will think that they are dying and they won’t come down to earth) behind completely is for the best. This makes sense since the Ark hasn’t exactly been kind to the Blakes (Octavia was an illegally born baby who spent her childhood terrified of being discovered, when she eventually was, their mother was floated, ouch!). I’d say leaving a bunch of teenagers on their own to accomplish a ridiculously important task is maybe the stupidest plan ever, unless you stop to consider all of these kids are technically criminals, which makes it officially the stupidest plan ever. Luckily, Clarke, Wells, Finn Collins, and a few others are more inclined to do the right thing. Clarke and Bellamy are mainly enemies this season.
