Yam seng copang for the complaint about lack of mass in containers being hauled around by the actors. That drives me pashang craycray. Sadly, it is probably due to actor safety requirements, considering the same "heavy" object must be hauled over multiple takes. Still -- it drives me frakking crazy to see it all the time.
Great summary of a great show! Thanks for all your insight @SYFYWIRE! #TheExpanse #TheChurn
Ep. 2 is where I began to notice Avasarala was like an entirely different character, and it only got worse throughout the season. I think having her husband present made her weaker. She second-guessed her own decisions and couldn't seem to think straight. I hope he stays gone.
I think there was an error. This is the previous episode, season 3 episode 2 "jetsam".
Season 4 was incredible. Love everything Expanse related. Sci-Fi channel really screwed up letting go of this series. TY Amazon and the viewers for keeping it going! TY James SA Corey(s) for providing intelligent, deep and highly entertaining books and television!
EVERYONE SHOULD WATCH THE EXPANSE. @ExpanseOnPrime = best scifi on TV - deeper, broader, more complex than @themandalorian which amply supplies simple family fun but lacks solid meat. I appreciate this S1 recap - love & miss team #TeamRoci!
