Don't sleep on this Syfy Channel high-stakes political drama. All kinds of stuff hitting the fan right now with the Earth/Mars conflict heating up and major characters coming face-to-face for the first time.

For me the first season was a real slog but I very much enjoyed the second season and season 3 is good so far.

Syfy is done with it, despite having a 100 percent Rotten Tomatoes rating, good overseas viewership and has been getting tons of good press. Hopefully it will be picked up by Netflix.

Now after great outcry from fans, Syfy appears to be dithering on whether they will cancel. Personally I hope either Netflix or Amazon picks it up because I doubt if the rating will ever be satisfactory enough for Syfy to want to keep on producing episodes.

All kinds of stuff hitting the fan right now with the Earth/Mars conflict heating up and major characters coming face-to-face for the first time. I just started watching it. The first three episodes were really slow. Not many attractive or interesting characters. It was hard to figure out who was who, and what group they belonged to. But now episode 9 seems to be coming together. Things are starting to make sense. And the excitement level seems to be going up. (The sound seems to made for home entertainment centers. The loud is really loud. And the soft is so quiet I cannot hear what they are saying. I live in an apartment building. I need to be considerate of my neighbors. I am zooming the volume level back and forth all the way from level 20 to level 100.) |

Not many interesting or attractive characters. And it was difficult to figure out who was who and what group they belonged to. But episode 9 seems to be coming together. And the excitement level seems to be going up. |

You catch and understand much more, whatever you happen to be watching. "The Expanse" is a show that does demand that the viewer pay attention. The first season is basically a neo-noir mystery that comes together slowly. The action starts to ramp up in the second season. |

But for some reason, I can't get it on this program. I push the close caption button but nothing happens. |

I have only seen the first episode of the third season so far, but I'll probably catch up with the other episodes very soon. Very sad to see it getting cancelled. I hope someone else picks it up so it can continue. Like I said, I haven't watched the new episodes so far, but all I've heard on the internet concerning season 3 is extremely positive. I've even heard people say that 'Immolation', the lastest episode, is the best episode of the show and perhaps one of the very best sci-fi tv episodes.

It has to be a very expensive show to make, so I doubt it will be picked up unless a big company like Netflix wants it.

What is with Anderson Dawes (Jared Harris)? Is he supposed to be Irish? He talks like English is not his first language. I can barely understand him. Do they make him put marbles in his mouth when he talks? His accent is an abomination of the English language. You think being a professional actor he would have trained to clean that up. Is he doing that for the part? Or does he normally talk like that?

They keep referring to the solar system as the world, "The proto virus is out in the world. We just have to accept that." That is what was said on a space station in the belt. Don't they know the definition of the word "world"?

I am only on Season 2 episode 8. But apparently there is no law against murder in outer space.

Everything I see on the Internet says The Expanse is coming back for a season 4. It was officially announced by SyFy that they would not continue the show for season 4. (tvbythenumbers, tvseriesfinale, and other sources reported it) However there is a story out today that Amazon is in negotiations to pick up the show for season 4. |
