Set 97 years after a nuclear war has destroyed civilization, when a spaceship housing humanity's lone survivors sends 100 juvenile delinquents back to Earth in hopes of possibly re-populating the planet. (IMDB) www.imdb.com/title/tt2661044/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1Has anyone seen this? I notice the first 3 episodes are out on BT. I think its available on Amazon.

Watched about 15 minutes of it then turned off.
In its defence though I very much doubt that grouchy middle aged men are their target audience.

I watched the episodes that have aired so far last night. The show was entertaining but not engrossing. The target audience looks to be teens. The network that produces the show are the same one producing Vampire Diaries. I found the characters likeable and the writers have killed off a couple of the featured characters unexpectedly. I plan on watching the rest of the season as it progresses. Overall, I'm impressed. The premise of the show has lots of room for growth. 100 teens marooned on earth devastated by a nuclear war. Each day they are exposed to unknown hazards. The orbiting space station they lived in is aging and there is a limit to how many people the habitat can support The 100 encounter altered creatures and find they may not be alone.

I read the book the show is based on a while back, and even though it was horrible, I still finished it in one sitting. I've only seen the premier episode of the show, and I didn't hate it, but it wasn't enough for me to want to keep watching.
But now that the show has been renewed for another season, I might give it another try and see how the rest of this season goes.

It starts here tonight, I'm going to have a look at it and let my younger son watch it. It looks like it would appeal to fans of the Hunger Games. (which bored me, but he liked it)

I watched the first couple of episodes of this - I quite like the premise but it just felt too much like a teen show. Oh well, hopefully 14 year olds across the world are getting a taste for PA
