The 100, a SciFi drama based on the novel series written by Kass Morgan.
A nuclear conflict has destroyed the Earth and made the lands not suitable for living. To survive the man made apocalypse, the people fly up to space and learn to thrive by living on a space station called Ark. Once the Ark reached the maximum carrying capacity, there's no other way other than to return back to roots.
Ninety seven years later, a space ship with 100 juvenile delinquent sent back to earth to research earth's sustainability. Series of events unfold, as the teens with no guidance of adults starts chaos and confusion for leadership. To surprise, some clans survived apocalypse and still living on Earth after many generations.
The grounds, who live clash between clans for the power to rule. They have different blood( night blood/ Nablida) that makes them resistant to radiation as a part of evolution. They talk in trigedasleng. One phrase I'll always remember is " jus drein jus daun". Blood for blood. There are other clan of grounders, the Reapers. The mountain men, who were living in a lockdown since apocalypse. So, technically speaking a 97 years of lockdown.
With each season, a new living challenge was thrown to people. Saving the human race by Defeating Artificial intelligence, another Nuclear apocalypse,a new planet with lot of new dangers. A complete package of SciFi, super natural phenomenon and Thriller.
Clarke Griffin, one of the protagonist who portrays how power consumes a human and the sacrifices a leader need to make despite of all criticism and saving the day. There are so many characters you can look up to. Bellamy, Octavia, Abby, Lexa, Lincon, Raven and more. A big cast yet presented with neat screenplay and perfect balance between characters ( yeah, when the balance miss we just kill a character, just like GOT never pick a favourite character. )
More than SciFi, The 100 talks about human emotions, love, crave for power, thirst for survival and how dark this human race could be when it comes to survival.
Until our final journey to the ground
May we meet again ❤️
