But I think that changed when he realized that he, as a 23 year old guy, had the responsiblity to keep those teenagers alive. Once he was pardoned, almost all of that bad-boy character had been gone, and he fully focussed on the survival aspect.

In the beginning of S3 he had a girlfriend, and that was a serious relationship, not a hookup. And now, in S4, he is not going back to that bad-boy character again. He cares too much about the people he loves, to be reckless like that. His character development has come too far. He will co-lead with Clarke, and I think that's a beautiful thing (FYI I'm really really really hoping they don't have anything romantic planned for S4, to avoid a nuclear bomb in the fandom - pun intended).

I think the main reason why the show inserts those 'yolo' moments is to balance out the throat-slitting, ear-stabbing, bullet to the stomach-moments. It's The 100's way of showing "hey look, these people have feelings, and needs. So they sleep together." Are there better ways to show that? Yes. You could have them braid eachother's hair, or eat cake. Oh wait, that was S2. And many charcters were found OOC back then. Well, yes, exactly. Because we're not used to seeing these character take a seat. So I say keep those bedroom scenes in there. I don't mind them. There's maybe one of those scenes per episode, and the remaining 40 minutes is full-on survival mode. I have 0 problems with that. No I think Bellamy just has a really rotten dark side that surfaces now and again. His sadistic torture of Murphy too and killing of grounders, his need to be in control. All that is really unhealthy and he needs a proper pyschiatrist to cipher through the crap going on in his head, not Clarke who has her own problems and doesn't deserve submitting like that to anyone.

Honestly, the bedroom scenes are way overboard, it takes away from the show, makes it cheap and it is not love so it is not ok. Plus not to sound nitpicky but they don't even practice safety first, certainly a threesome is disgusting and a nono and I have 0 respect for that disgusting man Bellamy. I honestly preferred it when he took a back seat, this is not the books and someone else, a grounder I believe, should now take centre stage with Clarke as a lead, not him. He is a huge speedbump in this show as is. But the point is, all of this stupid stuff has taken away from the show to the point where I and many are struggling to find sense in it anymore as is. The Hunger Games which they keep comparing to, was done better because it was about being badass, being a survivor and having your wits about you. The 100... used to but nope, no longer. And that ALIE stuff... what the heck was that? So unrealistic!!!!

Oh and btw, not sure if this was a legit thing or not but I came across a fairly new looking pic of Eliza in costume holding a sign saying "I don't want another Commander!" Legit or not I wonder? I kinda wouldn't be too surprised if she actually did do something like that though. She was great because she supported Clexa all the way and heck, I think she really did enjoy it, she was obsessed with Lexa too.
