SciFi is kicking ass with Expanse and Magicians.
Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

I'm starting to get really pissed at SyFy. Their show starts about a minute after my dvr kicks on so I ve missed the last minute on all these shows. They need to fix this!

I saw someone in a shower this Ep and then get cut off. Argh!!


Go into your series manager and just extend the end time by a minute or two. I do that with a lot of shows.

Otoh I'm digging a storyline adjustment that gives us Bobbie when we're only halfway thru bk1.

Avasrala? (Can't remember exact name) wasn't in until book 2 as well, right?

I'm not feeling Bobbie to much but that's cause i pic Gwendolyn Christe when I read bks.


Gwendolyn Christie doesn't really work for Bobbie though. Yes, she's huge and intimidating by she completely lacks the islander background and attractiveness that is party of Bobbie.

They put up a great article about the casing decision for her awhile back :Bobbie Casting

I'm with Abyss on being happy on the changes to the story that have given us Bobbie, Avaserala, and -my favorite casing choice so far- Jared Harris' Anderson Dawes early though.

I'm not sure which I'm more excited for at this point - season two or book 6.

Why would you picture Christie when Bobbie's Polynesian?

A two hour premiere that I won't be able to watch till the weekend....lol.

Excited to get to the next part of the story though, as while I liked the first book...book 2 was where things got REALLY good for my money.

I'm fascinated with how they are going to (further) merge books 1 and 2.
S1 ended more or less halfway through WAKES, with the added Avarsarala elements from bk2.
Now we have Bobbie, a bk 2 character, itro'd before the bk 1 protomolecule storyline is even wrapped.

We're also going to see Mei (which leads me to believe we'll see Praxidike too), as her backpack is a prop for this season.



awesome stuff.

Mei is the daughter. Prax is the father.

I kinda love it when D'rek unleashes her nerd wrath, as I knew she would here. Sorry innocent bystanders, but someone's gotta be the kindling.

Damn that was a great epi. The CGI in this show is some of the best I ever saw on tv budget. I felt like I was wearing 3D glasses at one pt last night.


Psilocybin will do that to a guy.
