I remember visiting this website once...
It was called ‘The 100’: Lexa’s Death Interview — Jason Rothenberg On LGBT Backlash | TVLine
Here's some stuff I remembered seeing:
Jason Rothenberg spoke with TVLine about
‘s latest death, he described it as “the best choice,” all things considered. Weeks later, he’s singing a slightly different tune.
The 100 EP Defends [Spoiler]’s Death: ‘It Seemed to Be the Best Choice’
In a new interview with TV Insider, Rothenberg admits he was “a little surprised” by the outrage that came with Lexa’s March 3 death — in addition to being a high-ranking Commander, Alycia Debnam Carey’s character was also the love interest of leading lady Clarke (played by Eliza Taylor) — though he has “come to understand” the reasons behind said outrage.
“As a straight white male, I obviously didn’t anticipate how deeply it would affect certain people,” he says. (If you didn’t catch it on Twitter, fans accused Rothenberg of queer baiting, and rallied to get “LGBT fans deserve better” trending during
‘s March 10 episode, exactly one week after Lexa’s death.)

All things considered, though, Rothenberg doesn’t regret killing Lexa; he reaffirms in the interview that “this is a show where characters die.” In fact, the showrunner intends on killing off another beloved character — and
Rothenberg have done differently if he’d known that unceremoniously killing Lexa would cause so much pain to so many viewers?
“Knowing what I know now and sort of realizing the things that I’ve realized, we should have done less [celebrating of the episode on Twitter],” he says. “We should have done less buildup knowing where this was going to end up and knowing how this was going to affect people.”
fans, are you satisfied with Rothenberg’s latest thoughts on Lexa’s demise? Drop a comment with your thoughts below.
This is a SPOILER website, and Lexa died weeks ago. Get a grip. Honestly, people are always looking for a reason whine.
I considered putting [Spoiler] instead of “Lexa,” but given that this happened 3 weeks ago and her death is already being discussed so publicly, I didn’t see the point.
I’m 3 episodes into the season, but this got ruined for me the night it happened. People on Facebook and Tumblr are not as considerate.
Yeah, no one who follows the cast is going to be surprised at the next character death, because the cast member in question has been dragging Jason Rothenberg for being a bully and crappy human being for awhile now, and speaking of their character in the past tense.
Yes, and the next one will be Lindsey Morgan’s Raven.
No. He completely missed the point and didn’t learn anything at all. He wouldn’t change HOW he killed her, he wouldn’t change the use of the trope. He doesn’t regret anything and his silence was actually preferred to this terrible interview.
People, characters die no matter their orientation, just like regular humans.
I understand being passionate about a character, but accusing them of ‘queer baiting?’ A little extreme.
I suggest they roll out the next death really soon.
It’s hysterical when straight people try to tell LGBT people how to feel about LGBT issues. GMAFB.
Great interview and agree with Jason on all fronts. ANYONE can die in The 100 and that’s why it’s adored like Battlestar Galactica.
Lexa was doomed to die as soon as Alycia signed on as a regular to FTWD. I fully expect Lincoln to die next as Ricky also has a show where he’s a series regular. This allows character growth for Octavia and would dry an even further wrench between her and Bellamy.
Finally, LGBT deserves representation of TV. LGBT characters do NOT deserve special treatment where nothing bad can happen to them. Never once has any LGBT character on The 100 defined themselves as such. They simply are who they are.
He continues to miss the point and learn from what he did. The episode was flawless up until that moment. It’s not that he killed her off (most of us had come to terms with it), it’s the fact that A) he ASSURED us it wouldn’t happen and B) he did it in the most idiotic, senseless way possible. Had he written it to be in a dignifying way for this character (like in battle), maybe it wouldn’t have been so bad. What that interview tells me is that truly, he has learned nothing from it.
couldn’t be in battle. They needed Clarke and Murphy to see the chip. Always had to be an intimate death
No this will not be enough for Lexa fans. They are immature and attack anyone who dares says anything bad against Lexa the character. Ask the guy who plays Bellamy
The problem with Lexa’s death is that they needed Clarke and Murphy to be in the same room when it happened so they could see the chip being taken out. That limits death options. I would have liked to see something a bit different, say Titus sending an assassin but Lexa saves her. Also get rid of the Murphy torture scenes and replace that with him bringing him right to Lexa . That could have solved the stray bullet problem.
I won’t debate whether Lexa’s death was the strongest and/or right choice for the narrative (though I will say writers don’t necessarily have to kill a character in order to write them off a show because of actor unavailability).
But let’s say Lexa’s death was inevitable. That’s fine. But couldn’t they have given Lexa a more honorable death than accidentally getting shot by Titus? Or at the very least, couldn’t they have spaced out her death a bit from the love scene — more than a commercial break?
Yes, people wanted Lexa to live. But I think a lot of us are less upset about the fact that she died (because lots of characters die indiscriminately on The100), and more upset about how and when she died — stray bullet roughly 30 seconds after her love scene with Clarke.
you HAVE to kill them off. She’s too important a character to just be offscreen all the time.
He is making things worse right now, because he still doesn’t get it, nor does he seem to care all that much. The only thing I get from these ‘breaking the silence interviews’ with Jason is more bs and contradictions out his mouth.
And we all know these interviews were released today right in time for WonderCon this weekend. But good to know he’s only made things worse.
“As a straight white male, I obviously didn’t anticipate how deeply it would affect certain people” — Oh, come now. You don’t have to be gay *or* female to know about this well-worn TV trope.
It’s kinda pathetic that fans are accusing him of all these different things. What else did you expect from the show? The actress playing Lexa is in Fear the Walking Dead. That said, it’s difficult for her to film 2 shows, considering the 100 is filmed in vancouver and fear the walking dead is filmed elsewhere. One of the great things about the 100 is that they aren’t afraid to kill off characters to progress the show in a natural way.
