ROTHENBERG: Some of that is above my pay grade, in that I don’t get to decide, unfortunately.
Have you already thought about how much further you see the show continuing for? Do you see a Season 8, or do you see even further down the road than that? There are very few shows, these days, that get to Season 7, or even Season 6. It certainly tees up another story, the way we often do, at the end of season, and in a way that really would have pissed people off.
#THE 100 SEASON 6 EPISODE 3 SERIES#
I’ve had a good sense, for awhile, that it was probably gonna come back for another season, but I wasn’t asked to try to make this a season that could’ve functioned as a series finale.
ROTHENBERG: Hell, yes! The ending of Season 6 is, in no way, shape or form, satisfying, as a series finale. It also takes a lot of the pressure off of the overnight ratings for the premiere.Īt the same time by, the time then that we get to the end of Season 6, will we be grateful to already know that the story will be continuing through at least Season 7?
I wasn’t surprised, on that level, but it’s a baller move to pick it up before it premieres. JASON ROTHENBERG: I was so surprised, on one level, but I also knew how excited everybody at the network was, about the episodes that they’ve seen, which is everything, at this point. With no idea what’s in store for them, a small group, including Clarke ( Eliza Taylor) and Bellamy ( Bob Morley), head off to face any threats they might come across on the new planet, whether that be from the inhabitants or terrain, while several members of Wonkru, including Raven ( Lindsey Morgan), stay back on the Mothership to watch over those still in cryo-sleep.ĭuring this 1-on-1 phone interview with Collider, showrunner Jason Rothenberg talked about how grateful he is that the network chose to pick up the series for another season prior to the premiere, especially since he did not give this season a finale that could function as a series finale, how long he could see this series continuing, the 125-year time jump, how challenging it will be for everyone to get back on the same page, after the events of Season 5, what’s motivating Clarke, what’s in store for Murphy ( Richard Harmon), the Blake sibling relationship dynamic between Bellamy and Octavia ( Marie Avgeropoulos), and how he felt Bob Morley handled directing duties this season.Ĭollider: Congrats on the Season 7 pick-up! That doesn’t often happen, before a season even starts airing. The CW drama series The 100 is back for Season 6 (and already picked up for Season 7) with a huge reboot, now 125 years further into the future and facing a mysterious new planet that they must go down and explore.
