Loved the little monologue by Holden at the very end; and also love the whole backstory of the proto-molecule. I thought the show was going a bit nuts in the middle of the season but they wrapped it all up nicely! Looking forward to season 4 now... Just beat you to it... finished watching the last one last night.. had to pull a late one to fit it in but well worth it

Really enjoyed that, cramming the show over such a short period helped because I did not have to wait around for each new episode.. I thought the way things ended would have almost been just about right even if they never made another series.. I am wondering what direction a 4th season might go in now?? The final episode left enough for the imagination to take over wondering about all the possibilities that lay before them and of course the teaser about the origins or the creators of the protomolecule.. It was good to see Miller making a return even if it was in Holdens mind... Enjoyed the crews friendships they built up along the way and would have liked to see the crew get a bit bigger with those additions but even though they didn't they have gained allies now for future episodes which I am sure will come in handy.. The 2 best moments had to have been when he took apart the doctor like a jigsaw puzzle and laid him out on the floor.. and of course the very sudden death of the space racer who met a rather sudden and unexpected end as he was showing off going through the ring... I was expecting something to happen but that caught me out, nice and gory..[/spolier]

I was expecting something to happen but that caught me out, nice and gory..[/spolier] I really enjoyed it too. As I posted earlier, I thought the show was going a bit nuts starting Season 3 Episode 8 I think, right after the war between Mars and Earth was over and they started with a new storyline a few months later with the sister of Julie Mao seeking Holden, protomolecule manifesting as Miller in Holden's mind, the Ring... But then they did a good job to properly explain everything and I really enjoyed it. As you said, the way the season ended would have a good enough ending for the whole series, but I'm glad more is to come... Now I'm really eager to find out what happened and who (or what?_ destroyed the original civilization of the creators of the protomolecule billions of years ago and what awaits in all these new habitable worlds waiting to be explored behind the gates that the Ring opened. As Holden said, it’s going to be another blood-soaked gold rush. I absolutely loved that little philosophical monologue at the very end of the finale; really summed up the humanity well. For me it's easily one of the best sci-fi shows ever and I'm so glad I discovered it. Considering getting the books it's based on but I'm afraid it will ruin the experience afterwards!
Bluewolf Posted January 15, 2019 Posted January 15, 2019 Just reading about this while looking into season 4 Jennifer Salke https://www.mymbuzz.com/2018/06/13/heres-how-the-fans-of-the-expanse-influenced-amazon-to-buy-season-4/ “There were airplanes circling us, I was having cakes delivered, there was a whole thing happening. And then really smart people, whose opinions I really value creatively, started reaching out to me, saying, ‘have you seen this show, The Expanse, it’s actually great.’ I hadn’t so I spent some time, I watched the show and I was like, this show is actually really well done, why is nobody watching it? At the same time, Jeff Bezos was getting emails from everyone from George R.R. Martin to every captain of industry, like the founder of Craigslist, and they were all writing, saying, there’s this show, it’s so great, you have to see it, you have to buy it or save it.”
Administrator Batard Posted February 22, 2019 Administrator Posted February 22, 2019 Didn’t realize how short the episodes were, been flying through season three. Speaking of which, season three has been superb.

When does filming start for season 4?

Administrator Batard Posted February 26, 2019 Administrator Posted February 26, 2019 I finished watching season 3 last night. After finishing Daredevil season 3 on my daily commute to work I wasn't sure I'd find anything to compete with that. This, this was immense. I appreciate now how much ground work season 2 did for this one. There are elements that on reflection don't quite add up but I suspect the best foot forward here is to watch it all back to back. I also know having spoken to someone who's read all the books that the series has been so far very faithful to the first two books. I also got told some spoilers but I won't share them, still pissed off he told me to be fair hahaha. Season 4 can't really get released quick enough.

nudge Posted February 26, 2019 Author Posted February 26, 2019 I stopped reading the books after the 3rd novel in order not to ruin it for myself; I'd be seriously pissed off if somebody spoiled it for me

Must keep an eye open for that... really pleased they have done a 4th season, don't know what the viewing figures are for it but clearly it's grown on people as it's gone along and it is a quality show with a good mix of interesting characters..

Amazon picked up the show after Syfy cancelled it and they wouldn't have done that if it wasn't for the fan outrage and pleas to #SaveTheExpanse so I think viewing figures were high enough! https://theexpanselives.com/the-power-of-fans-how-the-expanse-was-saved/

The Rocinante going up to the edge of space was pretty cool... Just shows what can be achieved

Those kind of things help kill the cynic in me; if just a little bit
nudge Posted July 20, 2019 Author Posted July 20, 2019 What a day... We've got a teaser trailer AND a 5 minute preview of Season 4! It look great! December 13 is still a loooooong time to wait though
