The 100 will sadly ignore physics, logical consistency, and more, if it can better serve teen drama. Which I guess is a permissible creative decision, just not one I like.

Aside from the bad space physics, which I can put down to a lack of budget, I found the 100 a pleasant surprise.

It's like they told the screen writers "make a teen drama" but then didn't check the script, and the writers get extremely dark in places. The only thing thing they assiduously avoid is rape.

I mean, it's not terrible. I like the premise a lot, and the darkness, and the characters are a bit more 3D than you would expect in this genre. But it's still a teen drama first, and high-concept dark sci-fi-ish story second.

It had a moment there in the AI storyline where it looked like it was going to be a good show. Never panned out.
