Are you watching The Expanse?

By TasteTheRainbow, in X-Wing Off-Topic

Season 2 just finished and season 3 was renewed. This is the best sci-fi on TV right now, hands-down. Slight spoilers in this video, but without context I don't think it really spoils much.

I'm on episode five of season two. Just started season two last night. I prefer dark matter and kill joys but this is certainly the most realistic sci if. Especially the way space travel is done.

Production value for this show is meh.

Roberta "Bobbi" Draper...the actress playing this character doesn't come close to being a low-g, fit marine. She's an overfed pig. Honestly? They should have shitcanned this show and put more money into Defiance.

Everyone gets puffy in zero-g. They made her bulk up a bit for the role from her usual build.

oh and defiance is garbage

It is nice to have a mix of shows, though. It's nice to have some serious scifi in with the fun stuff.

What's with the body shaming?

I liked season 1. I won't pay extra (already paying for Prime) so I'll wait for season 2 to come out in Prime or Netflix.

I was hooked on it though. It was an interesting watch and I liked the way how the story unfolded.

I had an amazing time with S1, but will have to wait for S2 to come out on Netflix. I'm super looking forward to it.

I only made it through 8 minutes of the pilot when it first came out (due to lack of time, not lack of interest), after you mentioned the books a while back and got me started reading. From last weekend through today, I finished the pilot and am roughly 10 minutes in to S1E2. So that's progress.

Hoping I can start Cibola Burn this summer. #summeriscoming #teacherlife If only Winds of Winter were coming...

I'm taking a staycation when Winds releases. But half the stuff GRRM posts on his blog is about The Expanse lately.

I'll be reading it when i retire at this rate.

Still waiting for Netflix to get off their arses and show season 2 in the UK ?
