But I actually discussed this not too long ago with others, one of them was saying they didn't for one second buy that it was a complete schedule clash and she couldn't do both. It was more that sheis only wanted to dedicate her time to the show she thought would pay off for her (Fear the Walking Dead). It is no secret that she thought it would be HUGE. Guess she didn't antipate the criticism she would get and that her risk fell through, it is pretty clear now that she made the bad choice. If she stuck with Lexa, she could have been huge in her own right. But Alicia Clark? Hardly anyone is talking about that character, she is not unique or special. If Alycia wasn't Lexa first, nobody would know who she is at this stage.

So do I think that if Jason did some serious grovelling, maybe even offering a bonus, that she might either ask to be killed off Fear or magically be able to do both again? I think it is VERY possible. Alycia knows who people really love, LEXA. And money talks. Unless Fear does so happen to get cancelled as you say. But that could still take a while.

As for The 100 though, it totally needs her. I said it before and I will say it again, it's true ending should have been season 3. With the ratings downfall and its constant frustrating plot, it is rightly on its way out. NOBODY can replace Lexa no matter who they introduce. EVER. All the good characters except Clarke are already dead! Well you said a lot of things that are actually true, but i have to disagree with two:

1. I don't think Alycia wanted to completely leave The 100 and definitely not for good, she loved Lexa and portraying her, it was clear. I think things got complicated with she being a regular on other show, and specially a supposedly big one with a demanding shooting schedule and Jason made the worse decision ever by killing her off instead of bothering to figure out a way of work around it and leave her storyline open, with the option of coming back if it was possible in the future, which had a high probability of happening. So he basically just wasted one of the most incredble characters ever, like that, like they grow on trees or something. So unbelievably stupid... i can't even begin to understand!

2. Clarke isn't the only good character left, we still have Octavia who I think is an awesome badass character and there are others really cool like Raven, Roan, Indra...!
