Just because Season 4 has been greenlighted, doesn't mean it will happen. It just means the CW made a financial commitment so that S4 can start production. I'm sure there are opt out clauses and other things that would allow CW to minimize their losses if the ratings took a deep dive. In other words they may start filiming the episodes but may never air them.

Bellarke happens in the books so the writers ALWAYS have that card they can pull out unless they actually kill either of them off.

IF Jason Rothenberg is suck a prick to work with, i'd bet many of the actors are talking to their agents to find them other gigs and get off the show.

As I wrote on another thread this season itself has been a major disappointment on many fronts. Everyone's actions have been beyond willful suspension of disbelief, beyond what real people who reasonable do in the same situations, beyond common senese. well although im not a big fan of bellamy his behaviour does make sense. i mean think about it he helped kill hundreds of his friends in the mountain, part of whom were his friends. Clarke had more time to deal with this, but he has forced himself to continue his life and not take a much needed break. then it goes well for three months and suddenly a grounder he trusts (which is a major thign consider all of them left him and the others in the mountain to die) gets even more people in the mountain, including his girlfriend killed. of course he wants revenge. than the person he has been obsessed with saving doesnt even coem back to what he regards as her true home. Tbh its surprising not more people have serious traumas like jasper considerign everythign thats happened. also, turnign into an ass is his way of dealing with his own trauma whilst arguing to himself that he is doing the right thing for his people because that is literally the only thing he can use to justify to himself what he did in moutn weather, and after the grounders betrayal x2 he doesnt see the grounders as his people, so he really doenst care about them and only cares abotu his people. thats also the ultimate reason why he is turnign into less of an ass now: because he realises they dont ahve enough ammo to keep it going and that a war will most liekly cause most of his people to die in the war or of hunger, so now his only option to make his people to survive is by creating soem truce with the grounders 8although he isnt 100% there yet)
