The third season will premiere Thursday, January 21st at 9/8c following the series premiere of the new DC Television Universe epic "Legends of Tomorrow".

Comic-Con interview with the cast: It always startles me how few of the cast members are actually North Americans.

The art for the second season DVD is beautiful: I just wish Warner Bros. hadn't recategorized the show from scifi to teenage girl drama, and demoted it to DVD only accordingly. The Blu-Ray set for the first season was excellent.

Another Season 3 synopsis:

Official synopsis for Season 3:

A very strong finale. If Mount Weather had just released its prisoners, its people would still be alive. If Mt. Weather hadn't come to an agreement with Lexa to break the Ark/Grounder alliance, its people would still be alive. It is literally because all sides had teamed up against the Ark...

Octavia's always been a Blake first and last. Assuming they both make it through the finale, she'll still have her brother.

Excellent twist, well grounded in what we know about the characters involved. I like that the cliffhanger left a metaphorical rather than literal gun to our characters' heads. The Mountain Men and the Grounders have each come to the conclusion that the other is a more dangerous adversary than...

And was Clarke genuinely reciprocating Lexa's feelings, or was she ably managing an essential asset?

The moment when the junior Wallace realized that a massive Grounder/Sky People army that he had incited was marching on Mount Weather, and Mount Weather was completely without adequate defenses, was a deliciously satisfying moment. The finale looks like it's going to be epic. Rewatching the...

My only complaint is that after such a catastrophic missile strike, all of the deaths amounted to red shirts. I thought at one or two more prominent characters should have bitten the dust. My favorite part was when Abby was seething at Clarke's choices, and Kane got it immediately. He framed...

The amount of bang this show gets for its very miniscule buck continues to amaze me. Re-watching the first season on Blu-Ray, it's amazing how well the visual effects hold up to the clarity of high bitrate 1080p. Some of the shots of the Ark floating in space took my breath away. And now I see...

No worries, Jason. Easy mistake to make. Tonight's episode may have been my favorite of the season. We needed the satisfaction of watching the slow agonizing death by radiation exposure of Rekha Sharma's Josef Mengele-esque surgeon character to balance out the horrors that confronted our...

You're correct, two runs of 8 and 8 this year. The CW is committed to shorter seasons on this show, but the exact number of episodes is going to vary slightly from season to season based on the network's scheduling needs.

My favorite scene in the episode was when Bellamy had the moment with the preschooler and then, seeing his backpack, realized he'd just killed the boy's father. The show should never make things too morally clear. For a second there, I thought the president was actually going to let the 47 go...

Sacrifice in the the sense that Lincoln knew what was coming, but proceeded anyway. When he tried to persuade Bellamy to turn back, he knew he wasn't going to be able to resist the drug. When Bellamy convinced him they had to move forward, Lincoln knew what was waiting for him at the end of the...

It's been a while since we've had a ferocious mutant animal episode, so it was fun seeing Clarke and the grounder commander battle King Kong. Interesting development with Jaha. He's Moses leading his people out of Egypt to wander in the wilderness for forty years in search of the promised...

"Out, damned spot! out, I say! One; two: why, then, ’tis time to do ’t. Hell is murky! Fie, my lord, fie! a soldier, and afeard? What need we fear who knows it, when none can call our power to account? Yet who would have thought the old man to have had so much blood in him?" Terrific episode...

Terrific news!

I agree with you that the story that led to Finn's predicament was poorly conceived and executed, and failed to adequately justify his 180 turn from voice of reason to brutal killer.However, I think the aftermath of it was actually pretty true to the reality of these massacres. People who are...

Brilliant mid-season finale tonight. There was a grim inevitability to the proceedings rooted in simple math: one murderer's life for the lives of thousands. Most shows would have found a dodge to get out of it. But that's not the kind of a show that "The 100" is. And however horrific the...

Yes. On one hand, you never turn over one of your own people to the enemy. On the other hand, you're putting the one over the existential needs of the many. There's no guarantee that Jaha will be able to lead them to the City of Light. The entire civilization of the Ark might die because Finn...

Forgot to mention this; it surprised me too. I guess they create them as sort of guard dogs for their more vulnerable entrance points.

Yeah, it's so much more interesting for the surprise reveal to be that President Wallace is not the bad guy, at least as far as his intentions toward the kids from the Ark are concerned (the grounders might disagree...). It'll be interesting to see if Maya retains her immunity to the radiation...

After Jasper donated his blood to save Maya, and the procedure was proven as successful with the Ark survivors as with the grounders, President Wallace met with the doctor who carried it out and his son (who's conducting the horrific experiments with Lincoln and other grounders) in a dark...

Clearly President Wallace's intentions towards the children were pure. It's Rekha Sharma's Doctor's character that views them as a transfusion supply. The problem comes now that she has proved her hypothesis, it's crystal clear just what a valuable resource the children are. And this is a...

The biggest surprise for me in tonight's episode is that President Wallace's intentions toward the 48 apparently were genuine and honorable, however barbarically Mt. Weather treats the grounders. But like anything in this hard-scrabble world, it's hard to make arguments against the utilitarian...

There's some of that. In Bellamy's case, I think it's legitimate growth; he's gone down the uncompromising path and seen the consequences. In Finn's case, he's so desperate to rescue Clarke and the others that he'll do anything.I buy it in Bellamy's case, it feels a bit artifical in Finn's case.

Very strong episode tonight. That ending captured the show's philosophy in a single moment; after more than a season trying to win over Anya and bring their people together, an episode full of trials that pushed their personal dynamic to the limit, Clarke's own people's fear and ignorance throw...

The Murphy character continues to irritate me, as does the writers allowing his taunts to make usually rational characters do unrational things.Otherwise, a strong episode. I like that the show's taking the time to grapple philosophically with the idea of how much the rules of the ark should...
