Ok so I've spent the past few days contemplating how I feel about the finale, and I've decided it sucks and is the worst season finale of the series.

First off for all the hype the battle between wonkru and the prisoners got through out the series the end protect was disappointing. We only got 2 mini skirmishes in both episodes and to top it all off no one from wonkru died except for redshirts. Also how was Miller able to participate in the second battle after being shot? Can we please have some wound consistency?!

Next there's Murphy. Now I know a lot of people like him and he's one of my favorites too but I think his death would have been great in this episode. Him staying behind so no one would have to risk their life to save him would have shown his Evolution and how he cares for his fellow survivors.

Next there's the whole destruction of earth and going back into space thing which is where the episode goes down hill for me. Now I know Mccreary is supposed to be a sadistic sociopath but the destruction of earth was just a repeat of last seasons season finale. Only difference is a person caused the end of the world not natural causes. First off the 2prisoners with Mccreary didn't realize how crazy he was and didn't try and stop him? This whole episode was just a rehash of last season and beginning of this season. End of world happens, people have to go to space to survive, something goes wrong so they can't return as planed, and theirs a kid introduced who is is the child of someone from the 100.

Last there's Monty and Harper. Now I understand why they didn't go into cryosleep and it makes since for their characters but I still believe Christopher was treated poorly. Monty was a really underused character who deserved better. Christopher is a great actor but Jason and the writers put too much stake in Clarke Raven Murphy and the Blake siblings that Monty was pushed to the background way too much. I wouldn't care this much if Monty was a recurring character but he was a main character! Plus he has next to zero rememberable scenes. I also think chelsey wasn't treated well. I think she should have been promoted to Series regular before Echo. She's been on longer and contributed more to the overall story. Now I know I might sound like a Lexa fan but I see this as different. First off Monty was a main character were Lexa was a recurring character. Second Lexa has about 20 rememberable scenes compared Monty who had next to none.

Finally I honestly feel like Jason and the writers aren't really sure what to do anymore. They're just in atailspin just throwing things in hoping they work. My prediction for season 6 is they go down to the new planet encounter inhabitants like grounders and it's just a repeat of season 1. If they add actual aliens then I might be done with the show cause that makes zero scenes.
