Shaping up to be the Best Season of the Series
Harun_Karali9 May 2018
Warning: Spoilers
This season seems like I'm watching another TV show, the writing has improved drastically. There a lot of reasons this season is(in my opinion) the best in the series. But to me what this series lacked(espically in season one) was a villian, yes there was the grounders and the mountian men. But it never felt like there was one character we hated. However this season there's Charmaine(played beautifully by Ivana Milicevic) and I hope that she stays for a while becuase this series needs a strong villian to challange our protegenists. Even the hard-core fans have to admit that the "world is ending" story line was being overused. But now the series is digging down on it's roots; survival. I want to see more flashbacks(never thought I'd say that), as the relationship between Clarke and Maidi might be the backbone of this season.

Murphy staying behind was unexpected, he's the most underrated character in the show and I'm curious to see what capacity they use him in. When I started this series Jasper(R.I.P.) was my favorite becuase he was the comic-relief and Murphy is slowly starting to fill that void. I'm impressed with how the writers are focusing on one character at a time this season, I might be in the minorty but I think it's paying off. The only reason I'm praising this series so much is becuase it's rare for a show to improve so much as it progresses. Most of my favorite shows dropped in quality as they progressed. But if someone asks me what series has the best character devolpment, I might just point to this show. The only reason this show is not as acalaimed as other CW hits(Flash,Arrow) is becuase of how many people gave up on it when the series started and I don't blame them, but this isn't the same show it was when it aired. If they could have given it the chance I did, it would have been more then worth it. As this season would give any CW show a run for it's money, heck it might even put some major TV shows to shame.

Maybe the Best Episode Yet?
Splarke229 May 2018

This season is absolutely incredible so far, with each episode topping the last! 5x03 had insane twists & turns, some crazy action, lots of great character development, and an epic ending. Bellamy meeting Madi & find out Clarke's alive gave me shivers, along with the much-anticipated Bellarke reunion at the end. Bellamy sure does know how to negotiate.. ;)

Sleeping Giants set up the plot for the rest of Season 5 & oh my it looks like it'll be a crazy one!

10/10 episode!

Left Behind

Spacekru tries to find a way down to earth, where Clarke and Madi struggle to survive.

I am absolutely impressed with how good this season has been up until this point. There was no weak episode yet. I definitely hope this will continue.

I loved the character dynamics, though I am a bit confused and annoyed with what happened to Murphy and Emori. The action was superb, the choreography was spot on, the acting was great... And the ending was freaking amazing. Why isn't it a 10/10 then? I honestly don't know. But it somehow did not capture me as much as "Red Queen" did, so I had to express that somehow. But other than that, it is an amazing episode and I can't wait for the next one.

Probably the best episode so far
siri-6848710 May 2018
Warning: Spoilers
This has probably been the best episode so far in the whole series! I loved how Madi met with Bellamy and the others after saving them and telling them that Clarke was alive which came as such a chock to them cause they had all bern thinking she had been dead for the last 6 years, and even tho I am not a Bellarke fan (Clarke and Bellamy) I really loved how Bellamy and Clarke met! I am so going to rewatch this episode many times!!!

Eligious IV.
ououzaza27 March 2020
The new story and plot are interesting. We get to know about Eligious IV, their mission. And on the ground, Clarke attempt to make peace with the prisoner.

  • Murphy's choice scene is hilarious.

The "second in command guy" He was a crew member on the ship, not an inmate
Neptune1655 October 2022
Warning: Spoilers
The second in command dude, and he is part of the crew that was killed on the ship, that's the reason why he doesn't like the violence and is actually decent. The way the 100 delivers those Easter eggs and foreshadowing... even this episode had one, like the season 4 episode had about eligius mining mission! I thought they took the hints that the good guy Shaw is not a prisoner like them, they need him, so was spared. Yup they were prisoners sent out to space for mining missions cheap labour I suppose. They took over the ship went into crew to sleep for the journey back to earth which could have taken years. They seen Clark's blood they got the same blood treatment so they could travel in space. Night blood for the radiation in space. I also feel like the Sleeping Giants of the season are Bellamy and Clarke. They are both emotionally broken but will come back stronger then ever. Clarke saw prisoner transport on the side of the ship. She knew exactly who she was dealing with. Emori rocked this episode. And Madi harpooned a guy in the face...she can handle herself. Shaw is a good guy. He was just in the wrong place at the wrong time.(Captain's log stated he was not a prisoner just a pilot.) Bellamy finally is with his daughter xd the relationship between Bell and Madi will be interesting. I thought this was such a good episode. The way Bellamy looked at Clarke. Also I'm so scared we are going to hate Octavia it's pretty much like how Bellamy was acting in season 1 though. I'm not sure if you'll notice the parallel but it's there.
