Well, I suppose it's no secret that 'The 100' is geared toward a somewhat younger audience. IMDb Ratings have a demographic breakdown for their ratings system as well, if you want to check that out. Overall I agree though, regardless who the show is targeting, it just depends what kind of person you are. I'm close to 50 years old, male, and you might be surprised of all the shows I've binge watched in the last couple years. Even Big Brother, which I never thought I'd watch in a million years.

I'd also point out that a lot of liberal Female age 18-49 were seriously tuning in to this show up until Season 3 Episode 7. Are you aware of all the controversy and backlash after that episode aired ? According to statistics and reviews on IMDb.com, it appears they begrudgingly finished out Season 3, but many did not return for Season 4. You would not believe how they lashed out against the writers and producers after LEXA was killed, or perhaps you do believe it. For me, the reaction sort of blew my mind. They essentially started a ratings corruption campaign and effectively perverted the episodic ratings for Episodes 7 thru 11.

Certain demographics of today's public audience are definitely motivated and influenced by film and television content. I'm not saying I agree with that, but I learned how true it is. Certain groups of people become very emotionally attached and vested in characters and/or storylines when their personal agendas are being advanced. And when those agendas are not met or become in jeopardy...Whoa, hell hath no fury like a woman (or man) scorned. It's somethin else, lemme tell ya.
