The 100 Boss, ngôi sao Defend Bellamy's Choice: 'He's Trying to Do What's Right' 

It looks like Clarke may have to write that list, after all.

The 100 EP on That Lexa Moment in the Season 4 Premiere: ‘It Was Important’

offered a glimmer of hope for the Arkadians in the form of a hydro generator, but when the retrieval mission took an unexpected turn — Bellamy chose to blow it up, rather than bring it home, to liberate a group of prisoners — Raven’s already-fragile survival plan basically fell to pieces.

“The point needs to be made that some of the decisions Bellamy makes are because he’s put in very difficult situations,” Bob Morley tells TVLine of his character’s latest controversial move. “People who weren’t there can say it was idiotic or shortsighted, but when you’re in a moment where horrible things are happening in front of you, sometimes you just need to act on what’s best.”

Morley adds that this life-and-death decision was merely part of Bellamy’s overall Season 4 journey, which will “broaden his view on what it means to be a Grounder and Skaikru and human.”

“Bellamy still feels weighed down by the guilt of a lot of decisions he’s made, so he’s trying to do what’s right,” showrunner Jason Rothenberg adds. “He chooses to save lives in the moment … which has been Clarke’s M.O. all series long.”

And speaking of Clarke, Rothenberg suggests that Bellamy’s decision this week — which was not unlike what Clarke did at Mount Weather — could bring the two characters to a new level of understanding.

“Clarke and Bellamy, in many ways, have always been the heart of this show,” he says. “In Season 1, their relationship was antagonistic, but once they learned how to work together, everything started to fall into place for them as a group in terms of their survival odds. … I like their chances when they’re together.”

Now let’s shift gears to my current favorite couple, Abby and Kane, whose relationship is “important” to Rothenberg as it proves that “people in their late forties and early fifties can still have a sexy, passionate love story on TV.”

“Those two characters have come so far since the first episode, back when they were opponents,” he says. “Abby is still in that place of being the moral compass of the show, but Kane has also changed so much that it’s now a viable, real love story. The actors also have great chemistry.”

Do you think Bellamy’s decision will come back to bite him, or will the Arkadians (as usual) find another way out of this mess? Drop a comment with your thoughts below.

Heck yeah, Clarke and Bellamy do work better together, queen and knight. His decision was right and moral. I’m sure there will be a lot more deaths along the way, but they’ll probably get out of this one.

I feel like lately I’ve been shipping the “adults” on TV shows more than the teens. I’m totally into Kane and Abby.

This season seems more like Queen and King. The Queen and Knight trope doesn’t apply to them if you look at the trope in literature.

Yea they have always been better as a team but I do think there more like queen and king just without the relationship (at least not yet)

Clarke and Bellamy are amazing together and i feel like so much good comes from it, They learn from each other and lift each other up and can trust each other, its perfect teamwork in my opinion i really love them in the show. All the cast in my eyes do an amazing job and work really hard to give us a good show!

Are you kidding Bellamy is nasty he is so controlling and horrible!!! I think if he dies it is the best chance of saving the show. I’m so surprised though I thought shipping was just for tweens and teens, lol.

I think Riley will be important to their survival later on which will put Bellamy’s decision in a different light.

One of the things I love most about this show is how well it does casting. Echo was a bit part, and now look at her character. She’s electric every time she’s on screen. Harper, Miller, Bryan, etc–we’re supposed to treat them as redshirts, background characters we don’t get invested in because they’re obviously there to die at a plot convenient time to raise the stakes, only the show doesn’t let us see them that way. I’m sure they have plans for Riley, despite him saying almost nothing in this first appearance.

You have got a fantastic point there it really is the mark of a great show that if they recognise characters they should give more time to and do just that. Also I like you point about Riley maybe he’s a nuclear physicist but even if he’s not maybe him and Raven can be broke toys together she really deserves some one.

Yesss to Kane and Abby. Give me adult ships over teen ships any day. I love how Kane has come so far in his characterization over the 4 seasons. One of the best handled characters in any TV show. He better not die now, haha.

Bellamy is such an ass who doesn’t deserve Clarke or happiness. I feel sorry for Eliza too because she hated Bellarkers trying to force her to love them. This show is definitely going to die because it can’t withstand losing more ratings because of this stupid ship. It’s supposed to be about survivalI and now it’s just trash.

Bellamy and Clarke are ABSOLUTELY the heart of the show, whether they end up being a purely relationship or not. Bellamy has always been my favorite character and unfortunately, like ALWAYS on the 100 he was faced with an impossible decision where each choice could potentially kill people. I think he will have end up making “the best choice he could with what information he had”. The people in front of him we’re going to continue suffering and dying immediately, but they have 6 months to find another solution for the radiation. What I found much more troubling was Clarke’s decision to blatantly LIE to her people. Are the show runners having to defend that publicly, or is everyone just hating on whatever JUST Bellamy did yet again? As if he’s the only person on this show who has made hard choices and made mistakes. *eyeroll*

Here we go trying to put Blake and Clarke together. Just because he’s “a lead” doesn’t mean he and the actual star should be together. Blake can’t make a right decision to save his life. AND to have the show runner/actor have to explain every week his motivation and reasoning is silly. If you’d written the character better you wouldn’t have this problem. Blake and Clarke don’t have any chemistry and forcing it doesn’t make it work. You sunk your show the second you killed Lexa and had the city of light story line. Have a good last season!

I should have bet 100$ about Bellamy blowing the device. Because WHO would save a dozen for kill HUNDREDS later right? Bellamy of course! Gawd, I’m so not surprised by this. Clarke would have found another way to saved the prisioners later. She ALWAYS does.

I have admit the connection of Bell’s action last night vs Clarke’s action at Mt Weather… uhm where is the connection? True, Clarke saved a few Skaikru and killed 382 Mt Men , BUT let’s NOT forget due to Lexa’s betrayal, Clarke found a way (AGAIN) to save the prisoners? Where is Bellamy ‘found a way’ in last night scenario? Was really blowing the device his ‘found a way’? Cuz now because of him, Raven could have saved 500 people , now barely 100.

On another note, I’m glad for Abby and Kane. She deserve to be happy and so does he. Hope they both survive the 2nd wave.
