The CW
Tonight The 100 finally returns with Season 5 Episode 9, after yet another hiatus. But we’re told this is the last one, so that is good news. You might notice one big change: The 100 is now airing at a new time. Here are details on what time the show is airing, why the time is changing, and how you can live stream the episode online tonight or watch it online later tomorrow.
‘The 100’ Is Moving to a New Time Tonight to Make Room for ‘The Outpost’
Season 5 Episode 9 of The 100 will air tonight at 8 p.m. Eastern (7 p.m. Central.) This is the new starting time for all future episodes of The 100. The show is now airing one hour earlier than it has the rest of this season. Although The CW hasn’t officially said why it’s moving the show up an hour for the rest of the season, the reason is easy to guess. The 100 is likely moving in an attempt to get more eyes on The CW’s newest show, The Outpost. The Outpost is taking over The 100‘s old timeslot and airing at 9 p.m. Eastern every week.
The description for The Outpost reads: “In the series premiere, Talon, the lone survivor of the Blackblood race, seeks vengeance on the men who slaughtered her people. Her journey takes her to a desperate Outpost on the edge of the realm, where she finally confronts one of the men who killed her.” This sounds like a show that’s definitely trying to get The 100 viewers, from the term Blackblood (which makes me think of Nightblood) to a story about a female warrior fighting for survival.

However, it’s certainly worth a try.

We were left on quite the cliffhanger in the last episode, when Bellamy decided that he needed to take responsibility for his sister Octavia. The official synopsis for tonight’s episode reads: “The growing fractures in Wonkru threaten to explode once and for all; Murphy starts a fire, unleashing catastrophic results.”
