tkam 1,598 Report post Posted February 22, 2017 Anyone else watching The Expanse? I binged season 1 in about 3 days and season 2 is off to a fantastic start. Possibly the best sci-fi show since BSG... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CD44hi 526 Report post Posted February 22, 2017 Funny you should write about this show. I just finished episode 3, all 3 in a row. Look forward to the rest Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EdipisReks1 1,745 Report post Posted February 22, 2017 I disliked the first season. The second seasons has picked up more of the fun of the books, and the casting choices are settling for me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hopstretch 16,283 Report post Posted February 22, 2017 Have stayed away from it precisely because I liked the books. Might be time to give in? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't really like the last book though (or the book with the poison slugs), so that made go a bit "whatever, it's already ruined, might as well watch the show and relive the best books" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RudeWolf 196 Report post Posted February 22, 2017 I'm starved for good space operas, so obviously I enjoyed the first season and second seems even better. Btw, did anyone notice that dialog tracks for S01 were mixed super horribly? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bjarnetv 201 Report post Posted February 22, 2017 if your starved for good space opera there is always the 110 episode long Legend of the galactic heroes to watch (its great) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you can make it through season 1, I think you'll like season 2. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tkam 1,598 Report post Posted March 18, 2017 Season 1 is a bit slow, but I still found it enjoyable and season 2 has been amazing so far. Scifi channel officially picked it up for a 3rd season today. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

morphsci 4,761 Report post Posted March 19, 2017 I really liked that the technology was pretty relatable to today without some quantum leap in how items were engineered. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EdipisReks1 1,745 Report post Posted March 19, 2017 I didn't have an issue with the show, first season, per se, it was just compared to the books. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nebby 189 Report post Posted May 22, 2018 Unfortunately the deal isn't done, though I hope it does go thru. Hollywood reporter's title doesn't match their first line of the article "Amazon Studios is in talks to revive one of CEO Jeff Bezos' favorite properties." lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tkam 1,598 Report post Posted May 22, 2018 Amazon does have the streaming rights to the existing seasons, seems pretty likely this will happen. Fingers crossed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hopstretch 16,283 Report post Posted May 26, 2018 It’s official. Bezos rapidly becoming the benevolent deity of nerd TV. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ironbut 1,930 Report post Posted September 13, 2018 Just read that a couple of the side benefits of Amazon's taking on season 4 is; No set episode length- something I love about the more "craft conscious" shows like Fargo. More nudity! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tkam 1,598 Report post Posted September 13, 2018 And probably higher budget as well. It's not like Bezos cares about prime video being profitable. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
