If you want a good honest review of the show check out this video on YouTube by Make a Path Presents.

However season 2 to 5 don't fall under the same category as the show had diverted away from the teen romance narrative and embraced the concept of tribalism and what it means to be human. The 100 has used romance to further the plot for example, Clarke and Lexa, Jasper and Maya or Octavia and Lincoln. This has its pros and cons, I'm curious what others think of plot romances.

Spoilers for anyone who hasn't seen the walking dead.

The walking dead suffers from just as many unrealistic things as the 100. For example, in season 6 Rick and co slaughter a savior outpost consisting of 40 people and when Negan takes his revenge he only kills two people? From a survivalist standpoint that's very counterproductive. How does he have 600 saviors? A flashback episode would be nice.

Another example is the trash people. Thay live in a junkyard, consists of 120 members and speak broken English similar to the grounders and lack former identity but its only been 2-3 years.

Season 9 was a romance heavy season, like the 100 season 1. Gabriel and Rosita were similar to Clarke and Finn, only exists to create dream. Forbes released an article at the end of Season 8 about how Walking dead should take inspection from the 100. I'm a big fan of the walking dead TV and comic book series and the 100 but overall thay both have some glaring flaws
