As for the too many storylines things, I agree. They probably could've scrapped a few of them. It's really interesting and all but it'll likely get rushed quite a bit.

Eliza Taylor is doing fantastic this season, especially playing as Josephine. Like, this is probably her second and last episode of playing Josephine (Excluding the 2 minutes in "The Face Behind The Glass") but she really did well acting like someone else who's pretending to be a character you play while she isn't. Also happy for Eliza and Bob that they're married.

It's going to be interesting to see Bellamy back again more revenge-driven. If I recall correctly, there's a scene in the second trailer of the season where Bellamy strangles Russell. I actually think Russell isn't that evil, I find thim quite intruiging tbh. He just wanted his daughter back, and look what he created.

It's really no surprise that Gabriel is the Old Man but it's going to be interesting to see him.

And what's up with Indra, Brell, Niylah and Kane? We haven't seen three of these at all (Like we're getting Kane but he's been in Cryo for about six episodes now and Indra and Brell seem to be nonexistent now). And for Niylah, sometimes I forget she even exists because the writers tend to write her off for multiple episodes every season!

As for the others, I'm liking Diyoza a lot this season and starting to appreciate Octavia. Raven is getting annoying and REALLY needs a storyline because she's been doing about nothing these past few seasons but bully Clarke and receiving more pain, Bellamy is cool, Abby is alright and the Primes are assholes but intriguing. I must say, characters have been made much more interesting in comparison to last season. I feel like that season was meant to focus on character development, but it seemed to be purely Octavia's show and about everyone got made unlikeable.

Anyways, looking forward to Clarke vs. Josephine next week!

Btw Keep you forgot the storylines of Clarke getting bullied (Before her mind is taken over) and Murphy being convinced he's going to hell. Oof knew I forgot something. Dammit.

Also I'm BAFFLED Ivana Milicevic was not promoted to series regular this season because just like Season 5, she's become a front running character. Like holy hell Diyoza is just one of the leads of this show now, it feels like.
