The 100 made some dubious and unpopular choices in season 7, but there was still a lot of franchise potential within The CW’s science-fiction world.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The 100 had a solid seven-season run on The CW from 2014 to 2020, but its later seasons killed the show's hopes of becoming a full franchise — and they really shouldn't have. Set in a world where most of humanity fled to space after Earth became too radioactive to sustain life, The 100 sees a group of juvenile delinquents being sent down to Earth to see if it's become habitable.
Over the course of The 100, the Grounders got their own backstory and lore. A spinoff centered on the group was even planned for after The 100 season 7. Unfortunately, the original series had dipped in quality by this point, and its final episodes became some of its most controversial. That's not why The 100 prequel was canceled by itself, but with added delays and declining enthusiasm about another story in this world, Second Dawn never came to fruition.
The 100's Ending Didn't Reflect The Series At Its Best The 100's ending may have sparked controversy among longtime fans, but its final seasons didn't reflect the science-fiction series when it was at its best. The early seasons of The 100 introduced a complex world full of complicated people trying their best to survive. And its politics reflected that, pushing the show to tackle themes far beyond what most would expect from a CW series centered on a bunch of teens.
The 100 Had More To Explore In Its Prequel And Other Spinoffs Certain deaths and events at the end of The 100 season 7 may have been dubious choices, but this wasn't enough to warrant canceling the prequel and destroying the show's chances at a future. Even The 100's most-hated storylines contained positive developments for the franchise as a whole, like the Grounder backstory that explained the events of the final season.
