He's ex child prostitute

I hate about half of the characters in the show including that faggot.

good show though.

its pretty shit as a show desu ,i watch it because the scifi is the best i've seen in a tv show ever .

Word? That would put a whole new spin on what the butcher of Anderson Station said to him last week

So, is he gay?
>>
>>65091272
I thought he was fucking the OPA chick.

>>65091230
>>65091272


From an earlier thread

In the books he's from Baltimore, whores are worked till they get knocked up, then they charge extra to folks who want to fuck a woman who is pregnant since that is kink. Kid is born and they are illegal, and thus are pimped out. Some escape to orbit, many don't.
>>
>>65091283
That's what I thought but Holden and her are showing chemistry and this dude claims he used to be a man whore. I'm wondering if he just did it to survive.

The effects in this show are surprisingly good for syfy. Also, I've been craving some hard science fiction.
>>
>>65091386

Started the book a bit I laughed at how the invented their fancy space drive the inventor attached it to his yacht which blasted him into orbit, fortunately he left the plans on his desktop

Same people that did Battlestar are doing this. It's pretty similar stylistically.

Probably all the Martian waifus. Shit, I'd even waifu the guy with the mind reading pills.
>>
>>65091290
That makes sense, thanks.
>>
>>65091335
Would it really hurt if he were?

>>65091386
Yeah. I was getting into "Into the Badlands" but was like, meh. Then I came across this and was like, Oh SHi... I was a fan of BSG and nothing on Siffy since they changed their name. Siffy.
>>
>>65091458
Why does it look so much worse than Battlestar? I mean, it's not Babylon 5 bad, but it's not really any better than TNG.
>>
>>65091521
Shit budget right now. Battlestar was popular. I think it looks great for something on a budget.
>>
>>65091551
I agree, pretty amazing I actually thought it was bigger.

Why didn't they get more cash?
>>

>Why does it look so much worse than Battlestar?

Have you seen TNG recently? You gotta be fucking kidding me if you're serious.

Bearable characters:

Naomi
Jim
Alex
Dawes
Lopez
>>
>>65091587
It was a risky show. Sci-fi figured out b movies weren't doing it so they kinda shotgun effect a bunch of shows out there to see what sticks. This got renewed so I imagine it will look better next season.
>>
>>65091458
I'm really enjoying this show and BSG always seemed to me kind of cringy for no specific reason, should I give it a try anyway?

They avoided using special effects as much but they weren't all that bad. There's less going on in this frame than in a typical Expanse space action scene, but the visuals are similarly realistic.

Space yacht, anon. He didn't attach it to a boat planetside and blast himself into orbit, he built the drive into his spaceship and turned it on without really sorting out how to throttle it down or turn it off. Blasted himself up to 5% the speed of light, acceleration killed him.
Dumb, incredibly cocky thing to do, but really what else could you expect from a Martian?

Kind of sad, I like him more than the others but he is asking for it.

Looks like they will be finding The Anubis after the commercial break

are they even going to eros? or just the rock

Is this a filler ep? It seems like it could easily be skipped.

is this what happens in the book?

>>65095133
Unless it was to test how far the patrol craft would go.

based mr bag
>>
>>65095191
Not exactly.

I suspect that the crew will go to Anubis before Eros, while in the book it the reverse
>>
>>65095187
Kinda. It doesn't scream action but does set up the next few episodes. You wouldn't understand Amos as well, or his relationship with Holden if it weren't for this one. I want more episode 4's.
>>
> quoting buzzfeed

How the mighty have fallen

OOOOO SHITTITTTTT

Next episode gonna be good

I know what that is bookfag wise

This episode is setting up for Episode 8.

Episode 8 going to have a ton of shit.

Anubis, Miller making it to Eros, Finding Julie
>>
>>65095407
I dunno. I might marathon the next two episodes and then call it quits until the season finale.
>>
>>65090064
I didn't even know there was a right book. Is it worth reading?
>>
>>65095486
From a bookfag, the next episode had three big scenes.

finding julie, the shootout at the hotel, and Anubis
>>
>>65095513
It not Dune but it a decent read. 2nd book is better then the 1st.
>>
episode was pretty meh, first one I've watched live and not on syfy.com though, so it might have been all the erectile dysfunction commercials that killed it for me. I really hope they get some other sponsors.

They get perpetually better. Cibola Burn was a bit of a dip, but the most recent one was great fun.

>The Donnager has blown up!

Yeah, RIP
>>
>>65095591
It was setting up for a big next episode, which will be a episode 4 type episode to get all that was shown in the preview.

Most likely it was designed to be a cheap episode as all episodes from here on will be costly.
>>
The guy who plays Amos can seriously not act at all, at least the rest of the cast isn't that bad though.
>>
>>65095677
Aw, I like Amos.

He's supposed to be pretty cold though. Kind of Numb...

>>65095677
err, I meant the guy who plays Holden not Amos. The guy who plays Amos is alright I guess.

Yes, Holden is flat and you want to punch him in the face.

Of course, in the book it said that he has a punch-able face.
>>
>>65095713

why has no one shooped a bane mask on him yet
>>
>It's just the churn.

I squealed like a little girl at that. It's a reference to a Amos centered Novella.
>>
>>65095776
Because Baneposting is cancer and this show is too good for that?

>>65095823

woah everyone we've got a hot head

The churn rises.

>>65095759
It's a reference to a character in Shakespeare's Tempest

>>65095798
I really think that the next episode will be a big one for the unspoiled viewers.

get inside a stealth ship, Miller at Eros, The Hotel Shootout, and Finding Julie

what is the budget like on the show compared to other stuff
>>
>>65096417
Apparently they are spending a ton on this show.

They are spending 50 million for 10 episodes. That not Game of Thrones (8 million a episode) but that a shit ton of cash.
>>
>>65096801

source? got is 6 mil an episode and has way more elaborate set and costume design. not to mention way more cast to pay.
>>
>>65096417
The Pacific $20 million a Episode
Band of Brothers 12.5 Million
Game of Thrones 8 million
Spartacus 6 million
The Expanse 5 million
Star Trek TNG and DS9 - 2 million a episode (1990s money)
Babylon 5 - $500 a Episode (1990s money)

Of course, Episode 4 cost a lot more then this last episode.
>>
>>65096939
well GOT is now up to 8 million, the cost per episode has gone up.

The main cost of the expanse is the VFX shots. One reason why Babylon 5 was so inexpensive is that they use 1990s Amega PCs to make the VFX.
>>
>>65096961
>5 million an episode
Where is all the money going?
>>
>>65097081

the only thing I can think of if that's accurate ( which I still don't see a source on ) is they are factoring in website costs and advertising that are tied to the show for the overall seasons budget
>>
>>65097081
20 cast members with at least 4 episodes
building a bunch of sets
lots of VFX that is of good quality
>>
>>65097159
I get that sense too, that the total budget is 50-60 million and another 50-60 million for next year.

Science fiction is expensive. Until band of brothers and friends, the most expensive show on TV was TNG and DS9.
>>
Did anyone notice the spy on the ship is Adam Jensen from Deus Ex
>>
>>65097264

still no source on that number though, I bet it's half that
>>
>>65097379

I didn't at the time but knew he seemed familiar, hilarious and they even threw in a hacking attempt

Google "The Expanse" and 5 million a episode you will find plenty of hits.

Walking dead is about 3.5 million a episode.

one of those is a forum the other doesn't have a source either
