DVD Review: THE 100 The Complete Second Season
For the Ark Survivors on Earth, the alien planet they’ve never known is a mysterious realm – a paradise one moment, lethal the next. Join the stars of this post-apocalyptic drama as they take steps to ensure their futures in the Warner Bros. Home Entertainment (WBHE) release of thrilling THE 100: THE COMPLETE SECOND SEASON on DVD. Based on the bestselling young adult book by Kass Morgan, and a Top 5 show on The CW with Men 18-49, THE 100: The Complete Second Season will feature all 16 episodes and is available to own on October 13, 2015 for $39.98 SRP.
What’s on the back: “Season Two kicks off with Clarke and her friends trapped inside Mount Weather, a nuclear-hardened underground city where no one is safe, especially THE 100. When Clarke escapes alone, it sets off a chain of events for our trapped heroes, the adults on the ground and even the Grounders. Alliances will be made, friendships will be broken and justice will be served. With everyone fighting for their right to survive, our heroes will have to ask themselves a very important question: How far will you go to save the people you love? Many will fight, some will die, all will be changed forever, in 16 earth-shattering, action-packed episodes.”
What we think: If you haven’t had the chance to catch up on Season 2 of THE 100 yet, or you’re just looking to re-watch Season 2 before Season 3 starts in 2016, then be sure to get this on DVD now that it’s available! The set has all 16 episodes and it’s so easy to go one after another, binging the full season before you even known you’ve made it through. Episodes are dark and gorgeous – the cinematography on the show looks great in this DVD set and adds as much to the show as the great writing and brilliant performances we’re seeing!
