I am watching it and it is indeed the best series this year. Having read the novels several times... we are in for one wild ride.

Webm related, sexiest ship of all time confirmed. Reminds me of Homeworld so much.

Not looking forward to mud world if we get that far. God damn that was a boring book.

I'm also not liking the ship cast. Utterly bland and forgettable. Jane of course it decent.

I loved Battlestar Galactica to death, but shows like Star Trek or Stargate leave me bored. I'm not into this space diversity thing where you are introduced into races that look like shit anyway.

Do you recommend this show?

>>63972437
Fuck me, I'm great at picking losers. Every boxing match it's the same shit. Maybe I should start betting. But in reverse.

There are no races, it's all humans. It could be the best show SyFy have done since BSG but it's definitely not as good (yet)
>>
>>63972751
It's all humans so far and the if cgi is any indication, aliens are bound to look pretty decent.

I would but then I like Dark Matter and detest Firefly.

I was annoyed the space plot stalled and we got muuh Wild West on another planet plot, but I got over it.

Each novel is its own sub-genre, right? We had to go through the damn Western.

As for the cast...

I expected Amos to be physically bigger, but the actor fits the general profile.

I warmed up to Holden. He is younger and different than I imagined him, but it can work out.
Not sure, if the actor can carry it believably as the leader, though, that's my main concern so far. He has been too soft so far.'Holden is waaay more manly and forceful than this, except with Naomi. Actor needs to step up.

Naomi plainly sucks.

Alex I like. Too quirky, but it's Alex, so it fits lol.

I dont care about anyone else really, although Miller is fine and the scene with Avasaral and the ambassador was brilliant and gave me chills.

I like how they presented Martians initially as some space nazzis, but gradually you see they are no different than the cast and are good guys doping their jobs.

The woman captain was very nicely done.

I actually like him. Andre would have worked as well.

Those small glimpses of his station and the mormon starship were awesome.

Watched the first episode, realised that fedora man was a main fucking character despite his complete inability to act, and dropped it. Were they actively aiming for a "really shitty version of Costner in Waterworld" vibe?

I kind of disagree. From the books, I pictured Holden to be a kind of amicable idiot--someone everyone likes, is honorable and moral, and his heart is in the right place, but not too sharp.
The actor didn't really deliver the same impression to me. He seems much more mercenary.

The belters are supposed to be a heterogenous mixed race society. They speak a patois combination of different languages of the people who settled in the belt, kind of like creole people.

Yes, it allows them to store angular momentum in their phonemes.

Between Expanse, Darkmatter, and Killjoys im throughly enjoying syfy channel more so than I have in a long time.

Yeah they actually have a decent line up again.

I'm still pretty pissed about Defiance being canceled too, but at least they have a few enjoyable shows going now to slightly soothe my saltiness
