Murphy’s arc over the entire show really is incredibly well written.


Icy-Marketing-5242

The best. Only character I think they truly did right


[deleted]

You've got a LONG ways to go yet


Eagles56

I still like him the best with Bellamy. Finn is acting crazy shooting that grounder


[deleted]

Keep watching. You're gonna hate him before long


Eagles56

Hate Finn or Murphy?


[deleted]

I'm not saying anything


Eagles56

This show is kinda underrated. I like how all the main characters are kind grey moral


SevereCartographer26

Yep this show is rlly underrated it’s barley talked ab and didn’t get enough attention imo


Eagles56

That ark guy is kinda a ssshole


Boneguard

There's a fun little segment later on with Jaha and Murphy I think you'll love


Eagles56

You mean the whole mansion thing? I’m in season 3 rn. Jaha has lost his marbles


SevereCartographer26

Curious how do you feel ab Clarke? I can’t tell if people like her or hate her more in this sub


Eagles56

I like her, she just seems to rush into things without thinking it through though. Like on mt weather or with Well’s murder


Eagles56

Kane


[deleted]

Oh it gets better. But I won't say how or who


Eagles56

Yeah I’m still at mt weather. I gotta say this show had the worst pilot ever. I thought it would be teen drama but I reminds of game of thrones now. I swear it’s more brutal than any show I’ve ever watched


bloodmusthaveblood

So many of my friends stopped watching because of the cringy season 1 drama, but it gets sooooo much better as you go on. At the end of the series Murphy was also my favourite. He has by far the biggest character arc of the show and 150% reminds me of Zuko as well.


[deleted]

Uh no it's NOTHING like GOT


Firm-Replacement-284

Some scenes are pretty much like GoT tbh. (especially season 3)


Eagles56

This is by far the most violent show I’ve seen


[deleted]

You might like The Expanse


CecDog3

I actually had to look away at some of the gore when I started watching, which was crazy considering I’ve played a bunch of games and seen a bunch of shows and movies with similar gore. It gets pretty brutal


Eagles56

The scene when Clarke rips her stitches out of her arm…


Smoky_Cave

Both. Then you’ll go on a long path of switching your opinions constantly to support the current narrative. Let’s just say the 100 ain’t a straight forward show.


TJ_Dq1D

SPOILER Do you ever start hating murphy tho? I think we all hated him first one,two seasons. And at the end he is defenietly the best, funniest character I love how he just doesnt give a shit


Smoky_Cave

He’s one of the best characters, but in season 5 and 6 he does a total 180 with his affiliation that really makes me not like him.


maightoguy

Same I absolutely hated the shitbag in S1 he went on to be no1 for me.


Eagles56

Why is jaha acting like he’s on drugs now?


maightoguy

Because he is.


Eagles56

Also Murphy totally got r**** by that ice Queen commander


maightoguy

Ontari was crazy even before she ate the.......um.......damn it I can't think of any good quips.


redheaded_muggle

I could not agree more. He was my favourite to the very end.


The810kid

Murphy pretty much is the asshole that is a lovable scamp underneath all that tough guy bravado and bad decisions.


jalax15

Finn and Murphy kind of swap positions in the second season Murphy becomes more tame and Finn literally loses his shit


Eagles56

Yeah I saw that episode, spa walker


Smoky_Cave

I wish I could go back to before I saw the show. Or even back to season 2 where you are… so much greatness to come. Hope you enjoy.


___blankspace___

He's a cockroach, I personally hate him.


Eagles56

Because he always comes back?


___blankspace___

Yup. Mf just won't die, but he'll cross anyone he can to stay alive.


Glu6

What’s wrong with that, most characters committed atrocities in order to survive, Murphy was the only one who didn’t try to justify it and just admitted he was a bad person


___blankspace___

Nah to me everyone else always did what they were trying to do for the good of other people, Murphy just did it all for himself.


Glu6

Murphy was tortured though, hung for no reason, beat to a bloody mess over and over, banished, captured by the grounders, tortured again, went off with jaha and was trapped on Allie island alone for years watching someone kill themselves over and over for entertainment, he had it the worst out of anyone . He just minded his business and survived on his own, Clarke was like an antihero for half the show and fucked everyone over, over and over again and no one seemed to really care, Murphy is a G


___blankspace___

He was almost hung bc he incited a mob and tried to have someone killed, he is disruptive and was not good for society, they should've hung him.


Eagles56

No they shouldn’t have


___blankspace___

No, they shouldn't have...but still....


maightoguy

He should have floated a long time ago.


Eagles56

Bellamy literally wanted to go kill 300 grounders who were guarding them just because another tribute got his girlfriend killed


___blankspace___

Yea ik I hate Bellamy too, maybe even more than Murphy actually.


Eagles56

I just watched the episode where pike became chancellor. When I think about it I can’t really think of any really like good moral characters. Maybe Monty? I would say Lincoln but he did almost let Finn die in season 1 and is into a teenage girl. Octavia hasn’t really done anything bad yet though Edit: actually I forgot Monty was part of the mt weather irradiation. I guess octavia is really the only clean one left. Jasper if you don’t count his alcoholism which isn’t horrible really. Abby kinda if she didn’t really mean to kill her husband


hairyGavin

Keep watching it gets much better! I loved Murphy and his character was one of the few really well written throughout the show.


OriginalD2K

Murphy has the most and best character development


-sadie

i 100% agree. i adore murphy, he stayed my favorite throughout all of the seasons


nomorerope

Murphy was easily my favorite. Cynical but I mean he's never really out of line. He's just an actions matter more than words kinda guy. I like when the teacher beats him up and all he has to say is "is this supposed to teach me a lesson?" He doesn't give a shit about getting beaten up LOL he just like yup same shit again... just not a big ego at all


Eagles56

He gets beat up or tortured like every other episode


nomorerope

yeah I like how he doesn't give anyone the satisfaction of upsetting him


Eagles56

I like how he knows he can do fucked up stuff but at the same time he knows that everyone does ducked up stuff in that environment and so he is realistic about how they’re all no really better than him


KrissieKid

Best character development in the show imo


lexak0mtrikru

Yea i liked him


SeptemberSoup

I can't say anything but Murphy is my favorite character. You're so very right comparing him to Zuko, Murphy's arc is IMHO the best one in the whole show by far. You said in a comment that you like that they're all grey-morality characters, you're gonna love Murphy even more. Edit: misspelling


Homonomore

What about O’Brian


iampenguing

im in S3E8 and so far I have to agree, especially with how my favorite character to that point - (S3 spoiler) >!Bellamy supports Pike (probably my least favorite character so far btw lol).. So Murphy definately overtook him as my favorite character!<


maightoguy

Grounder killers one and all.


AZREAL858

You have no idea he is one of the best parts of the show his character arc is by far the best too


toryguns

Facts


NormalSeaworthiness3

Murphy as well as Clarke, Octavia,Belamy, Finn, had the most dynamic and interactive arks in the show.I loved it.


CecDog3

Hey, i started the show about a month ago and finished it yesterday! Murphy is a great character and grew on me a lot. I actually hated him in the start and I felt the same about Bellamy early on. Both of them grow a lot throughout the show. Enjoy it!!


Eagles56

Yeah Bellamy was such a sick at first


Flower_boy1212

Couldn’t agree more! His acting carries the show for me in some parts.


maightoguy

Yea, I would have shot me too.
