The series follows a group of Delinquents, who have been sent down to Earth to see if it is survivable or not. Some characters are original characters and do not appear in the books. Plot Cast Main article: Character Appearances Main Cast Major Recurring Cast Production Conception and development In 2012, prior to the publication of the first book, the TV team in Alloy Entertainment pitched the idea to its partner studio at Warner Bros. TV as a potential pilot.
Similarities to The Tribe The TV show bears strong resemblance to an earlier series called The Tribe (1999-2003). It was a post-apocalyptic show where a virus kills the entire adult population, leaving the kids alone to form tribes for survival. Tribe fans often call The 100 as a much darker version of The Tribe, which targeted kids and teenagers.
Amber faked her death at the start of her Season 2 and came back in Season 3. Bellamy resembles Bray. Dal died in his 3rd Season while Jasper in his 4th Season.
Both were part of brainwashing cults who were sympathetic to the main cast and eventually betrayed their cults mainly due to falling in love with one of the main cast. The only difference is that Luke’s relationship did not work out, while Levitt’s did A.L.I.E. The Grounder clans resemble the Gaian Tribe. Becca Franko resembles Zoot.
Both shows have fanatical brainwashing cults. In The 100, the AI called A.L.I.E is responsible for nuking the world which caused nuclear reactors to form a Radiation Wave that engulfs Earth 98 years later, forcing the cast to flee underground or in space. Although The Tribe was cancelled after Series 5, The Tribe: A New World (2011) continues the story as Series 6 in novel format.

Who Was Clarke’S Lover In Season 3?
“I approached it as a feature writer coming into television for the first time, as each of these seasons was a movie broken down into 13 or 16 parts. That’s why the show changes so drastically season to season, which is one of the things I love about it.” Rothenberg set the show’s tone early, establishing that “The 100” would become the sort of series where anyone could die at any time and absolutely anything could happen, no matter how nuts.
“We should take full blame for things that people didn’t like. And it really started to boom in the second season. Twitter was a huge part of that.
While Rothenberg and his writers have never shied away from killing off beloved characters, often in brutal ways, the show stumbled into its first big controversy in Season 3 when Clarke’s lover, Lexa (Alycia Debnam-Carey), died immediately after the pair consummated their relationship. “None of those things are issues in ‘The 100.’ There’s not a lot of dialogue about any of those things.
But instead of playing into that endgame, Rothenberg had Clarke kill Bellamy to save her adopted daughter, infuriating many viewers. Bellamy has been the male lead for seven years and his death was 11 seconds. All that development between Bellamy and Clarke was ruined in an 11-second death that came out of nowhere.”
Our show doesn’t shy away from killing off its loved ones.” Washo is particularly incensed because she can point to tweets from Rothenberg responding to fans in 2015 saying the show wouldn’t kill off a main character and that “without Bellamy there would be nothing.” Rothenberg knows he got too entangled on Twitter and says he’s stepped back in recent years.
And I cannot tell you how many Black women come up to me and thank me for wearing my hair natural on television. “We were also one of the first shows that had a cast that reflected that. That’s the thing Richard Harmon, who plays Murphy, hears most at conventions.
Here I am seven years later and Murphy is trying his darnedest to do the right thing. “I watch it and I feel heavy watching it, but I’m also so obsessed and I have to know what happens next.” “The show has always been about the idea that tribalism is bad and until you can overcome that, and realize the person on the other side of that gun is just like you, you’re going to keep perpetrating this cycle of violence that leads to apocalypse,” Rothenberg says of finding the right ending for the series.
