Netflix fans are going wild over 'badass' series which made them keep watching it 'until the very next morning'

The series has been branded a 'better alternative' to Game of Thrones...

Netflix users are flocking to social media in awe of a TV series which has a whole whopping seven seasons.

If you're over all the rom-coms you were forced to sit through by your partner over the Valentine's Day weekend, fear not, because Netflix has a post-apocalyptic sci-fi drama for you to sink your teeth into.

Loosely based on the young adult novel series by Kass Morgan, the drama was developed by Jason Rothenberg and first premiered on March 19 on The CW.

Spanning seven seasons and a whopping - and fitting - 100 episodes, it begins ninety-seven years after a nuclear apocalypse wipes out most of human life on Earth, with people forced to live in a space station - dubbed Ark - orbiting the planet.

When the life support systems on board the space station begin to fail, a group of people are sent back to Earth to figure out whether it can ever be habitable again.

The series - titled The 100 - stars the likes of Eliza Taylor (Quantum Leap), Thomas McDonell, (Prom) Bob Morley (Love Me), Marie Avgeropoulos (Tracers) and Devon Bostick (Diary of a Wimpy Kid).

And while it may've first premiered in 2013 and concluded in 2020, it later became available on Netflix, and fans of the show haven't stopped speaking about it since.

The 100 has achieved an impressive Rotten Tomatoes tomatometer of 93 per cent and popcornmeter of 67 per cent and that love is certainly reflected by viewers taking to social media platforms to share their thoughts too.

A social media user took to LADbible Facebook page Netflix Bangers to ask: "What series on Netflix was so good it made you watch until the very next morning."

One user commented: "The 100. Its pretty badass."

"I agree! I watched it twice," another added.

A Twitter user wrote: "To everyone tryna do a GoT rewatch, I have a better alternative: The 100 is back in 3 weeks and it's all on Netflix. If for no other reason (and there are many, often so ridiculous, reasons), it's worth watching for the reveal in the last 5 minutes of the last episode."

"Enjoyed this TV series when it released. Good or bad, but the ideas were just insane. What happens 100s of years after earth was destroyed. It's a world it takes us into," a second wrote.

A third commented: "THE 100. This series quickly proved it would rarely play things safe, delivering a ton of gasp-worthy, incredibly dark, exciting, and dramatic moments centered on a group of strong characters frequently presented with harrowing choices and no morally clean options. #The100."
