Maybe they over sold how bad life on earth is supposed to be. When the martian wants to go the beach though she wades through a see people cooking food on the streets and who generally seemed like shack dwellers to me. Then we see a guy who says to survive in summer they will need blackmarket anti biotics to survive drinking sewer water. All of this was in NY city which seems to be the capital of earth so it just came off that basic was not something anyone would like to be on

[D'rek]

Yeah. That's not the sense of it I got from the books, but honestly they don't talk much about it either way. Maybe that really is the way the authors wanted it to be, but seems off to me.

[Gothos]

Finally got around to seeing this, and: wow! Absolutely amazing. "Home" is deffo my favourite episode. I didn't read the books so it's all new to me, too.

This is coming back for season 3 soon? Colour me interested!

[Cause]

Very Excited! I forgot do they release the whole season in one go? This could be my vacation/plane entertainement

[Abyss]

They are added to amazon prime vid in one mass per season, but only approx a year after airing on syfy/space.

No they aren't on Netflix.

They're on Euro Netflix though. There The Expanse is even called a "Netflix Original"

Yes it is. I never actually went and checked and considered it as such, actually.

It is, I think, not because Netflix was involved in the production. But more because Netflix has exclusive rights to publish the show in Europe.

Yep.
'original' means they have the original broadcast rights in the specific region, not that they actually made it.

[Whisperzzzzzzz]

Pumped for this!!

[Whisperzzzzzzz]

The opening scene was both a nice recap and an awesome CGI exploration of the solar system. Everything about this episode was awesome!

JUST SO EVERYONE IS CLEAR GOING FORWARD

BUT LET'S BE A LITTLE JUDICIOUS WITH THE BOOK SPOILERS OK?


SPOILERS


SPOILERS



Solid season 3 premiere, lots of conflict, the characters are all in interesting places, Ava and Bobbie escaping was suitably tense. I look fwd to them joining up with the Roci crew in the near future.

I like the swerve they're taking with the Roci's crew dynamic, and incorporating Prax a bit more. Am wondering if they're going to skip the book plot involving

Spoiler

Naomi's son

so they're setting up the internal strife now with the crew pissed at her for her coms to Fred Johnson in last season's finale.

That last chunk of protomolecule... that's going to be a problem.


And, this was awesome... as always.... i don't care how big and bad your missiles are.... YOU CAN'T TAKE THE RAZORBACK.

[Whisperzzzzzzz]

A problem...or an opportunity for more Thomas Jane!?

I think that we're totally getting that, but anyone's guess just when.

Goddamn. GODDAMN THAT WAS AWESOME!

This has me wanting so much to replay Homeworld. Just to blowup spaceships with other spaceships. Plus some of the ships look like some on the 1st game.

I’m trying to recall if

Spoiler

Anna

was a character in any of the 5 I ve read.

Amos is awesome.

She's

Spoiler

one of the faction leaders on the Behemoth (the repurposed and renamed Nauvoo) in the Slow Zone. She leads the Free Radio broadcasts too.

Might have gotten some names wrong, as it's been a while.

[Whisperzzzzzzz]

Every part of the Roci trying to save the Razorback in this episode was dope.

I don't think that's quite right. You're thinking of/mixing Anna with Monica.


Anna is...

Spoiler

the redheaded priest lady. In book 3, she's one of a bunch of civilian "representatives" sent out to the Ring as part of Earth's civilian representationy thing, and she associates with rich-lady Tilly(?) en-route. Anna runs some church services for her denomination on the ship, and she ends up becoming interested in/trying to "save" Melba (the terrorist girl about to sabotage the Rocinante). When Holden and co. travel through the Ring into the nexus area, the Mars, Earth, and Behemoth follow, thereby including Anna+Tilly+Melba.

Then the marines targeting Holden shoot a defense-bot on-board the central core station and the nexus turns into the Slow Zone. Everyone on board all of the ships gets abruptly momentum-cancelled and in many cases injured/killed. Anna and Tilly survive, and Anna ends up chasing Melba to the Rocinante and stun-gunning Melba (?), which leads to the whole sabotage plot being unmasked and Melba imprisoned on the Behemoth (where everyone is moved to).

On the Behemoth, Anna continues her church services and also tries to connect with Melba/Julie. After the Behemoth gets taken over, and Bull+Holden launch their crazy counterplan, Anna is one of the people who Monica uses in her mutinous radio broadcast.
