CW Bosses Reflect on Lexa's Death on 'The 100' During CW TCA Panel

It’s been months since fans saw The 100 fan favorite Lexa, played by Alycia Debnam-Carey, be suddenly killed on the show.

The CW network bosses addressed the backlash of what happened on social media during the Summer TCA Panel on Thursday (August 11) in Los Angeles.

“Jason [Rothenberg, showrunner] had a great learning curve on what social media can do,whether you can be adored or hated at given time,” CW president Mark Pedowitz shared.

He added, “We’re believers in letting showrunners tell a story. I’m a believer in letting a creative tell a story.If you start limiting certain things, you’re going to start limiting the ability to be creative.”
