On the heels of getting a fourth-season renewal for ABC Family drama Pretty Little Liars earlier today, Alloy Entertainment has sold sci-fi pitch The Hundred to the CW. Written by Jason Rothenberg, The Hundred is set a hundred years after mankind destroyed itself. Space-bound survivors take the first step to re-colonize Earth as 100 juvenile delinquents are released to the surface of a wildly changed planet, with the survival of the human race entirely in their hands. It is based on upcoming Alloy books written by Kass Morgan and published by Little, Brown. Warner Bros. TV, which owns Alloy Entertainment, is producing, with Rothenberg and Alloy’s Leslie Morgenstein and Gina Girolamo executive producing. This marks Rothenberg’s return to the CW where he previously co-created the pilot Body Politic starring Minka Kelly. On the feature side, he wrote a script for the Twilight Zone feature remake in the works at Warner Bros. Rothenberg and Alloy are with WME.

Why would the human race be in danger? All they have to do is mate like rabbits and avoid killing each other. Yes they are barbarians because they’re delinquents but no more barbaric than the first neanderthal and cro-magnon cave people were.
Sounds interesting, but it sounds too CW.
This actually sounds good. I would definitely watch if it got picked up and was as intriguing as it comes across in the description.
I heard this idea when it was in development awhile back. LOVE IT.
But if the CW makes it look anything like THE SELECTION (gasp, shudder, weep, vomit) they’re going to ruin it. Make it raw. Make it real.
sounds different from most things on THE CW. But then again they use the words juvenile so….
This sounds amazing I think it’s a step in the right direction to revitalizing the cw, instead of having all their shows for the female demographic.. They should have don a straight to series order so they don’t second guess it
Okay, let’s cast it people! I’m shouting out for Phoebe Tonkin and Landon Liboiron!
Ah yeah…that premise makes a lot of sense… Release kids. Yup . The best colonization plan an advanced spacefaring humanity has.
The CW so desperately wants a Hunger Games…
And yet, they wouldn’t know what to do with it if they did.
Its been done already -a New Zealand show called ‘the tribe’ about 10 years ago!
