A Netflix enthusiast recently confessed to an impressive binge-watching marathon, claiming to have watched television for “10 hours straight” after discovering what they described as “one of the best shows ever.”
This revelation came after Netflix subscribers had already been buzzing about “the greatest movie of all time” making its way to the platform, alongside a thriller deemed “worth staying up until 3am to binge.” Now, they’re strongly recommending adding a particular series to your watchlist without delay.
The viewer recounted their initial hesitation to dive into the series. “I was so indecisive to watch… but finally I started it, I didn’t know I could watch a tv show for 10h straight,” they shared.
Originally airing on The CW for seven seasons, the series made its Netflix debut in 2020, experiencing a resurgence thanks to a wave of positive online reviews. The show in question is “The 100.”
Launched in 2014, “The 100” unfolds in a post-apocalyptic America, where survivors from a space habitat named the Ark return to Earth 97 years after a nuclear apocalypse wiped out civilization. The first to return are juvenile prisoners, tasked with exploring the planet’s habitability and potential for repopulation.
Unaccustomed to life outside of space, they face unforeseen challenges, with the future of humanity resting in their hands.
Starring Eliza Taylor and Bob Morley, the series boasts a 93 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes, with its final season receiving particular acclaim from critics.
The resurgence of “The 100” on Netflix has prompted fans to label it as one of the greatest series ever, with some viewers admitting to multiple binges. One fan expressed, “I finally just finished ‘The 100’. I think I’m super late to the show but all I can say is WOW… probably one of the best shows I have ever watched. Always kept me on my feet and literally had the best ending that gave me so much closure.”
Another fan reminisced, “Hands down. My most favourite tv series. Still miss Clark, Bellamy, Marcus and the whole crew! When you see it now. Might look a little bit dated for some. But cannot forget the excitement it induced while watching it.”
A third viewer recommended, “Such an awesome show. Absolutely recommend to watch if haven’t so already,” while another confessed to watching all seven seasons three times, contemplating another viewing.
“The 100” is available for streaming on Netflix.
