60 Times "The 100" Was The Most Brutal Show On Television

Blood must have blood. Like, a lot of it. MAJOR SPOILERS for the entire series, including the Feb. 11 episode.

"Pilot" (Season 1, Episode 1)

The pilot of The 100 ended with a bang — or, uh, a spear — when Jasper (Devon Bostick) was nearly killed by Grounders. (He totally died, actually, but that got retconned when the producers realized they liked having Bostick around. But the series quickly stepped away from fake-out deaths!)

Clarke mercy-killed Atom with a knife in the throat.

"Earth Kills" (Season 1, Episode 3)

Atom (Rhys Ward) had been exposed to Acid Fog, so Clarke (Eliza Taylor) was doing him a solid here. Still: yikes. Lots of mercy killing on this show!

The CW

Charlotte murdered Wells.

"Earth Kills" (Season 1, Episode 3)

Hey, remember when one of The 100's main characters got killed by a little girl in the third episode? Charlotte (Izabela Vidovic) clearly wasn't in her right mind when she stabbed Wells (Eli Goree) in the neck, but it was seriously upsetting regardless.

The CW

Murphy got hanged for killing Wells. (And survived.)

"Murphy's Law" (Season 1, Episode 4)

Yes, Murphy (Richard Harmon) made it through his ordeal and was eventually exiled (and then brutally tortured offscreen). But the hanging scene was still one of the more distressing examples of mob violence in The 100's first season. And he didn't even kill Wells!
