The 100 Review: The Other Side (Season 4 Episode 11)
“Written by Shawna and Julie Benson and directed by Henry Ian Cusick The 100 Season 4 Episode 11 “The Other Side” is filled with moving character moments from top to bottom as our characters make crucial choices when faced with the ever nearing apocalypse.”

The 100 Recap 4×11: The Not So Easy Choice To Live
“Life and death both come with pros and cons…”
By Alanna Martinez, Observer.com
“The 100 season 4, episode 11 review: Earth Day”
“The episode also marked the directing debut of Henry Ian Cusick, who plays Kane. Not only was it a rousing success as far as directing debuts go, but I found it a particular stroke of brilliance to have this very character-heavy episode directed by someone going from acting to directing: Cusick is an actor’s director by virtue of being an actor himself, and was thus able to bring out the emotional truths of the incredibly intense, heart-wrenching scenes in Arkadia and on Science Island.”
