Sara Lance kicking ass, seducing women, and taking gross men down a peg is everything I wanted out of a stop in the 1950s.

The CW is a dangerous place for lady lovin' ladies these days.

The overwhelming reaction to Lexa's death from queer women was "Oh god not again" and then "We should have known". If it feels fresh to you, congrats. You're probably the audience they were going for. But for us, it's just more of the same. Killing a lesbian right after her experiencing one of her happiest moments has…

The choices she made put her life in peril, but the cause of her death was a stray bullet. It was never meant for her. That was Titus's choice, not hers. She got accidentally shot in the gut moments after having sex on screen with her love interest for the first time, which, as I said, played out almost exactly the…

That's the thing. No one thinks the writers were cackling at their laptops and screaming "LET'S STICK IT TO THE GAYS!" as they wrote their scripts. I mean, back in the 50s and 60s, that quite literally was the case. Any story with gay content had to end with the characters either going back to heterosexuality, getting…

I did watch Lost Girl. And while the series ending was refreshing amid this whole culture of lesbian death/tragedy, the writing in the last couple seasons made it a real chore to stick with sometimes.

Um, this was pretty reminiscent of "Seeing Red" on Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Willow and Tara had sex and were finally set on working through their issues when a stray bullet hit and ended everything. That episode is infamous and was reviled even back then in the queer community being another example of the dead…

Agreed. I'm out. The lesbian character being shot in the gut after having a romantic moment with her love interest is a trope I have seen over and over again. The fact that anyone could consider that good writing is outrageous. I'm so sick of it.

I really don't get how Monty's going along with Pike's agenda. Yeah, the idea possible starvation scary, but this is the same kid who said "die" back in season two when Maya asked what she and the Mountain Men should do if they couldn't harvest grounders' blood.

That was the moment I officially got on board with the City of Light storyline. Then later the 13th station sitting right there in Polis tower with the second AI code in it completely sealed the deal.

I was definitely worried for a second there. Very welcome juxtaposition to Miller's attitude towards Lincoln when they had him tied up in the dropship in season one. I was starting to fear all of the remaining 100 in Arkadia had lost their minds when Harper and Monroe rolled over for Bellamy so easily last week.

Same. I'm genuinely worried for Lincoln's safety.

At first I was worried her not wanting war might get her deposed or even killed. But the more I thought about it, it's probably the right call for now. All the grounders, and even Kane, have been saying since she showed up on the scene that Lexa is different. Your "typical" grounder commander, perhaps like those in…

The whole nightblood thing makes absolutely no sense medically but damn if it isn't cool.

That was some pretty decent season one Oliver Queen cosplay for a grounder assassin.

Lexa kneeling and swearing fealty at the end was such a shock. That's a dangerous, dangerous thing to do in this world. That wasn't the hardened, strategic Commander, that was Lexa herself making a personal and lifelong promise to Clarke. It's definitely going to get complicated going forward and I can't wait.

Spot on. Clarke's my favorite too and Lexa's betrayal was an absolute gut punch. It took a while for some of my anger towards her to wear off. The more I thought about it, the more I came to same conclusion: if Clarke had the larger army, she would have almost certainly taken the deal than sacrificed possibly hundreds…

I think the point is that they're actually so similar. When Lexa left Clarke at Mount Weather, she told her she was doing "what you would have done" and sacrificed all the Sky People and her burgeoning relationship with Clarke to save her own. Clarke only proved her point in the next episode when she killed even the…

Jaha scenes are definitely my least favorite part of the show right now. But I have to admit, the thought of how Alie's creepy "city" could finally intersect with Clarke, the Sky People and possibly even the Grounders is intriguing. Until then, I'm 100% happy with just the 12 Clans drama.

It's not exactly seen as a positive term these days, but I love Clarke Lexa's dynamic so much I can't really bring myself to care. How they feel about each has huge consequences for everyone else on the ground. It's also just so damn refreshing to see a f/f pairing be so prominently featured and respected by the show…
