The 100’s forthcoming season is getting an extension.
The writers of The CW’s apocalyptic hit tweeted Friday morning that the sophomore season of The 100 will have a total of 16 episodes (3 more than its inaugural season).
Happy we can finally announce that Season 2 of #the100 will be 16 episodes!

When we last saw the juvenile delinquents on Earth, the lives of Bellamy (Bob Morley), Finn (Thomas McDonell) and Raven (Lindsey Morgan) were up in the air. Hopefully we’ll get a better idea of who survived the season finale when the cast and creator of The 100 make their second appearance at the San Diego Comic-Con next Friday.
