The Expanse - Season 1

[Martin]

So that was the end of book 1. It's the shit.

Just wait if they adapt it correctly, the events of book 3 and 5 are staggeringly great.

Also, you saw it in episode 1 or 2 of season 1, but remember the slingshot races (people racing around the planets using the gravitational pull). We might see that later.

Yup.

Gimme the rest!

[Fil]

Heh, not surprised about your mild spoiler, with how this show is going. I sort of figured it might happen.

[Martin]

The how is interesting.

[Martin]

Also, the acting's good. The dude playing Amos ain't getting credit enough. The man's a sociopath.

BUT. There's a reason. The awesome scene with the scientist is pure gold. "have you ever talked with a pedophile" says SO MUCH about this dude.

[Martin]

Oh fuck that. Syfy (still is the stupidest name there is) cancelled it. They'll shop it around, but really, fuck that shit.

[Jan]

What. Fuck. That’s a poor choice.Here is hope that Netflix will add it to their ever growing buy ins.

[Martin]

You up to date with the books?

Apparently they had no digital distribution or even rights to run repeats on SyFy. Hopefully Amazon picks it up.

Amazon is streaming the first two seasons so it makes sense.

You up to date with the books?

I haven’t read the most recent one yet. Gonna tackle that in my holidays.

[Matt]

I've only seen S1 and loved it. S2 is waiting for me to watch it on Amazon Prime but I've simply had too many other shows to watch to get to it (we're currently making our way through THE AMERICANS).

I haven’t read the most recent one yet. Gonna tackle that in my holidays.

While not as great as Nemesis Games, it's the last part of the story starting. The last 3 books.

It's set 13 years later! And it's good!
