I swear it's getting ridiculous, every episode characters switch sides for no logical reason! And they forgive and trust each other afterwards so easily! So stupid.
It's difficult to understand, as a scriptwriter myself, how in just one episode, we can have terrible plots and sudden, unexpected characters turning from very high functioning sociopaths who used to be leaders to straight up psychopaths, willing to cause emotional, psychological and physical harm "because I love you and I must protect you". I can enjoy a morally grey, high functioning sociopath, but not this psychopath that I know will survive until the end of the show. Well, I can enjoy a character who was introduced as someone who cared for the wellbeing of "their people", who turned a high functioning sociopath (definitely genetic inherited trait plus the extreme traumatic conditions and experiences of life on post-apocaliptic US), turned full psychopath, but I don't trust the writers and the showrunner to deliver.
That's all because I don't want to spoil anything. I didn't remember that I disliked this character so much since so early.
This is my re-watching on Netflix after watching this show during its original broadcast.

OK, maybe I'm not the smartest guy around but the plot is getting too convoluted for my taste. Can't really say who belongs to which faction or why they switch sides in seconds. Understand the underlying idea of them all trying to get possesion of the "garden of Eden"without destryoing it (too much). But come on guys! This show started as a pretty girl / guy show with a thought of a story, then it got really good and now it's back to watching pretty girls / guys doing some shooting and what not. This show had it's day clearly, round it up now please.
In the previous season jasper was annoying and now clarke . I really hate clarke but unfortunately i should tolerate this disgusting woman until the end of season 7 . A weak mother who just try to protect her child. Nothing is more annoying than this for a leader
I've never expect cane betray octavia.
Until now the only characters who have something to love are raven ,bellamy ,monty ,octavia ,john , echo and emori .

Mentally ill helicopter mother strikes back. Got a cognitive dissonance after this. Everything else was good though.

- GoofsClarke along with Abby make a false comparison between Abby arranging for the 100 to be sent to Earth and Clarke's drastic actions to keep Madi safe. All of the 100 were sentenced to death, so sending them to Earth gave all of them their only chance of living to adulthood. Whereas Clarke actively contributes to the death of hundreds who otherwise might survive rather than allow Bellamy, Gaia and others to protect Madi from Octavia.
