Seriously, WHAT A FINALE this was. 

Whatever faults one might have with this show, it knows how to pull off a fucking finale. When Dean White’s directing and Jason Rothenberg is writing, you know you’re probably in for something special.

I actually don’t think Maddie was shaming Clarke about the Mt Weather massacre (that Lexa must have told her about!) I think she considered that Clarke being a “hero,” and Clarke not living up to that legacy (which is true) with her very un-Clarke like waffling and half-measures this season.

Heda Madi shamed all the Griffin girls.

Finally someone else gets Octavia. Its actually quite sad and tragic.

Great episode, and review. The scenes with Octavia and Bellamy worked *really* well.

I think the sandworms in Dune were cannibalistic.

I liked the little bits in this of the characters trying to fill in the backstories—Kaine & Abby trying to figure out who Clarke was sharing her house with, Murphy not knowing who Maddie was & her being disappointed that he wasn’t as funny as she expected, and Diyoza belatedly realizing that she really needed to…

Now that we know that Spacekru watched Lord of the Rings, I need the rest of their film list.

I liked Diyoza romancing the potential “traitor” Kaine with tequila and her backstory about cutting her own throat after her own team killed her father (she already fits right in on this show).

Yeah I think there was plenty of chemistry betwee Lucy and Wyatt. Once Jessica showed up and he got all jealous of Flynn and Lucy I was over it. I get that if you were in the same situation you would have feelings but idk keep it to yourself, you ass, as you are screwing your wife in the bunker where your girlfriend…

My analogy was that Katee was playing her like she was playing Tom Hiddleston’s Loki, while doing an impression of Michelle Gomez’s Missy from Doctor Who.

It’s weird to realize we have more in common with these new guys than we do with the characters we’ve been following around for four years.

Because Killer Frost isn’t evil anymore. She’s just Caitlin’s emo wild girl personality now.

I ship Bellamy and clark so fucking much.

Oh, and I haven’t seen this mentioned by anyone else yet anywhere, but...did I hallucinate it, or did PrisonCru mention that they’d seen black blood before in someone else, and something about twin suns?

Pretty convenient that Clarke’s hobby, established back in season one, just happens to one that allows her proteges to immediately recognize people who have been stuck up in space for six years.

I loved Madi’s introduction to the new skykru and how quickly she and Bellamy bonded, over their mutual love for Clarke (and I don’t even ship Clarke and Bellamy, but I respect what they mean to each other).

Can Charmaine or any of the other prisoners be related to one of The 100? Aren’t the prisoners well over a hundred years old?

The reminder about poor Wells and Kane doing the full “may we meet again” prayer really helped sell Jaha’s last scene. Isaiah Washington did a nice job as that character, as infuriating as he almost always was. His scenes with Octavia in this episode were good in that you got a sense of how much she justifiably hates…
