15 Gripping Shows to Watch If You're Already Dreading the End of The 100

Over the last few years, The CW's The 100 has grown into one of my favourite series. Clever and unique, the show has evolved in unexpected ways. Despite the sci-fi plot, the characters have gradually become more realistic and complex. Octavia's transformation to Blodreina and Murphy's trajectory from villain to hero are just two examples of the incredible character development in the series. In mere weeks, fans of The 100 will be mourning the show's conclusion after six years and seven seasons. That's why we've gathered 15 gripping series you may not have dipped into yet. While there's no substitute for another fresh season of The 100, these will at least help you get over the void.
