Yep, and one fan base sure has a history of being baited more than all the rest. It's no secret at this point.

Anyone can message me here if they want more info about what I think happened.

I was honestly thinking about Clexa fans, who were the biggest fanbase that was blatantly baited by Jason/writers.

April7739

I'm not saying they weren't. But let's not disregard how the Bellarke fanbase has been baited for literal years.

Honestly, probably no one knows any inside information on this situation ... I think that we just have differing views/observations of cast and crew interactions and so forth.

As I said before, I don't think that Jason is lying about Bob asking for time off. I do, however, believe that there's a reason why he's not saying why Bob asked for time off. It may be connected to his mental health issues for sure, and we'll probably won't know the truth (unless things are shared at conventions later on) but I do believe that it's connected with Jason ... given how things are between them on social media at least. I don't think that they're on good terms at all, and I wonder why.

Karma Police

If Bob asked for time off due to personal stuff, it's not Jason's place to say what the reason was though.

But yeah, none of us know what really happened and it's just speculation.

It could still be for personal reasons but the main reason why I think that it's partly due to work environment/being unhappy with the storyline is because Bob unfollowed Jason on Twitter (and possibly blocked him too). Same goes for Jason and Kim, they unfollowed Bob sometime during the season. I don't really follow these things but I read stuff from my timeline.

And Jason has literally mentioned and praised everyone else from the cast in recent articles (except Bob) and he didn't even get a countdown picture. The characters with minutes of screentime got one, but not the male lead ... that was seriously ridiculous. I just can't believe that it's hard to get a one second picture of him on set? I can even get why he's not in the trailer much but no picture/poster and literally silence from Jason on Bob (apart from saying that he needed a break).

But anyway, that's just my two cents and no one still knows anything for sure until someone spills the beans later.

April7739

Didn't he reuse a countdown pic of Marie last year since he forgot to take one? Could have easily reused one of Bob. But nope.

I honestly just can't understand giving Jason the benefit of any doubt anymore, but to each his own.

That spoiler account above is weird but intriguing and also not really actually spoilery per say, if anyone is interested

Kudos to Eliza for getting the praise that she deserves. Clarke’s scene with Russell was the highlight of a otherwise dry episode.

Very proud of Eliza for getting that recognition. It’s what she deserves, and while 5x01 remains unmatched I’m what it gave her the opportunity to do, the ending with her was easily the highlight of the episode, and I was so impressed with the way she delivered that angry speech at the end.

She deserves all the kudos that she's getting for the premiere.

Poll time ... I'm genuinely shocked how many people voted for s5 over s6, and also s4 being voted the favourite season over the first three seasons. But I guess the seasons resound with people in a different way?

My friend told me yesterday that season 6 is her favourite
