The 100 is coming to E4

Posted by Chris Turner on 2014/05/31 13:02

Ages ago I found this trailer for a new sci-fi show, The 100. It's about a bunch of teen criminals being sent down to Earth to see if it's once again habitable by humans. It starts off with there being 100 of them, but I'm guessing that number drops quite quickly as most of them don't seem to be taking things very seriously.

Anyway, it's now finally coming to UK TV channels! E4 to be precise as it's replacing the slot taken by Agents of SHIELD. I've not yet seen anything saying when it'll be starting, but they're running teasers for it, so I'd expect it very soon.

We've been watching it in Canada, and it's good. It's not ONLY about the
kids on the ground, there's a lot of political intrigue going on on the
station too, they are rapidly running out of air up there, and having
all sorts of other technical issues (that's why they're sending the
"criminals" down to the supposedly-radioactive planet first) and hard
decisions to make.

Quite why they didn't plan adequate COMMUNICATIONS with the kids will
quickly annoy you. They can watch all their vital signs and tell when
they're dying, or breaking the monitoring bracelets, but can't actually
TALK to them and ask them WTF is going on. :-D

... but yup, a lot of fun anyway.
