___________________________________________________________

General spoilers

  • Season 6 will be very, very different compared to previous seasons (hence why Jason changed up the writers room) and won't be about wars or my people vs your people.
  • The mystery of what happened to the people of Eligius III (who supposedly have been down there for 200+ years) will be the main focus of the new season.
  • Eliza Taylor (Clarke) is going to be challenged as an actress, more than she has ever been before, just like Marie in S5. It's gonna be a Clarke-heavy season.
  • Jason points out that the story of the Commanders and the Flame is far from over. Madi will continue to try to master the Flame's abilities into S6 (as teased in 5x13).
  • The culture/civilization our heroes will encounter in the new world is different from anything they've faced before (but not necessarily in a dark way). Jason states the reveal will be fascinating, weird, but also fun and that it will have very deep roots in the existing mythology of the show.
  • There will be an episode full of characters scenes, talking about feelings, getting emotional and... having sex.
  • We're about to really lean in (hardcore) sci-fi world-building with the new planet.
  • About aliens and new threats: 'there's definitely life on that planet. You better believe there are things out there that don't exist on Earth!'
  • Bellamy and Octavia's relationship will take a while to recover and the siblings will have to figure out who they are as a person independent of each other.
  • When Octavia wakes up from cryo, she will still be tormented by what she’s done, who she’s become, emotionally haunted by it in many ways.
  • Jason can't say for sure if Ian Cusick will return as a series regular or will be guest-starring (because of the actor's role on a new series). However, at the end of S5 Kane was put into cryo instead of dying. Our heroes will have to figure out a way to save his life when he wakes up.
  • About Jordan (portrayed by Shannon Kook): Jordan has never left that spaceship or met other people, so everything he's about to experience will be brand new for him. It’s going to be a fascinating journey to see if he can keep that innocence and wide-eyed excitement that he’ll enter the season with...
  • Additionally Clarke and Bellamy will take on the role of protective aunt and uncle who won't let Jordan get into danger, while Murphy will try to corrupt him.
  • Clarke and Bellamy won't wake everyone that's in cryosleep right away. They'll first somehow have to figure out if the new planet is survivable and safe enough.
  • Jason points out it isn't very exciting or thrilling to watch a show where a bunch of good guys do good things all the time, so bad things will still happen to people who deserve better, because that's the nature of the show, and always will be.
  • Last but not least, Jason promises the end of season 6 (which he already figured out) is going to be f---ing awesome(!)
