We're not afrain to kill off a main / popular / beloved character! We're edgy!" The problem comes if/when it becomes overdone, too common. Then it's predictable. Let's hope this show doesn't get to that point.

That's the thing about the 100. yes, some stuff might be predictable by now [RIP FINN] but what makes the 100 unique is that they still keep us jaw-dropped. Nobody expected clarke to do that. It's not so much that fact thàt they kill them off (in a somewhat predictable manner, I must say), it's the how. Wells being killed by little innocent charlotte. Anya being killed not by MM but by the people she was willing to make a truce with. Sterling not being another delinquent dead in WAG2, but dying while trying to save a friend... None of the people that have died in this show, have died the way I thought they would/might.
