Alycia's character on the 100 is far different from FTWD. I watched S1 & the premiere of the 2nd season. I could not stomach the show any more (its crap). Trying to be something it will never become. Anyway, she's playing the typical suburban teen, when she was a warrior on the latter. So, no matter how far they take her character in terms of brutishness, I'll always see her as the average suburban teen girl trying to be bad.

Her performance on the 100 was excellent. I've heard other fans complain that the actress & character was over shadowing the rest of the cast/characters. But, why should she have to diminish her skill so others can shine? The character was written well, and acted even better.

Many have said that Lexa didn't have to die. But, if the Grounders believed that the Commander spirit passes on to another after death - death seemed to be always in her destiny. Since the story wanted to show us that process.

Alycia had scheduling conflicts, or it would've been a tight schedule. I wanted her to live, but her death wasn't a shocker. Just the manner in which it happened. So stupid for the life that she lived. I would also have preferred if she never slept with Clarke if death was just around the corner.
