True, but it's not like the series takes place around the school or anything. It's mostly in Fillory now, and last season plenty of time was spent in non-magic locations

Protagen was planning on creating a new porn series called PROTOed where qt inner girls get railed by bbc (big blue cock).

It obviously encountered difficulties.
>>
>>80573834
Protogen is using the protomolecule to create those 'husks'. By infecting isolated individuals, they get rabid abominations that they use as weapons. The Venus protomolecule on the other hand is free to do whatever it wants, and it's building something massive.
>>
>>80574090
why doesnt the protomolecule spread like it did on eros? have they found a way to make it not infect others?
>>
>>80572499
Does the detective ever stop wearing that hat? Does he ever stop acting like he was written by a 14 year old autist?
>>
>>80574250
I don't remember if the book explained how or if they managed to stop them from spreading the protomolecule, but they do have self-destruct devices that completely destroy them if necessary.
>>
>>80574470
do you stop asking questions like a 14 year old autist and watch the fucking show?

The hat looks objectively stupid. Wearing a hat indoors is trashy. In space no one needs hats.
>>
>>80574470
does the anon ever stop whining and decide to watch more than a couple of episodes?
>>
>>80574607
Maybe wearing fedora's indoors is part of the belter fashion in a couple of hundred years.
I mean, belters are degenerates anway, doesnt look like they have good taste anyway.

sjw show
>>
>>80572499
this show is retarded and fucking sucks
>>
The fundamental problems with the show are never resolved and thats mostly due to the characters being dull and unlikable. But as the story evolves you kinda start to ignore that. I think for me that was near the end of season 1.
>>
>>80572877
It's a mix of both. Fillory is like Narnia, but the school itself is very reminiscent of Potter.
>>

A character's intentionally ridiculous hat annoys you so much you can't watch the show. That's full autism right there.

>intentionally ridiculous
Source?
>annoys you so much you can't watch the show
When did I say that? I have a limited amount of time to watch tv so I'm asking if this gets any better so I know whether or not to spend my time watching it. Why does that upset you so much?
>>
>>80575105
>Source?
The show and the books.

What, you want my opinion on the show? Clearly I enjoy it, as do many others here. It does get better towards the end of the first season, but opinions are opinions.
>>
>>80575374
So in the show and books they explicitly point out that he wears the hat because it looks terrible?

>>80575412
No. Characters comment on it as if it's unusual. It's just a hat, anon. Stop worrying about it.
>>
>>80575442
And that justifies it being on his head in every scene for the rest of the show?

Best cutie reporting in. She and Miller could have built a life together.
>>
>>80575481
>just turn your brain off
I mean it's not the only thing wrong with this show, just the most blatant example. I've watched the first few episodes and while I think the world they created is interesting and the plot has some potential, the dialogue is garbage and none of the characters are interesting.

Every scene? No, he stops wearing it at one point.

>>80575536
You've watched a few episodes, there's your problem. The show is nowhere near perfect in every way, but the characters get more interesting as time passes.
I don't get the hat problem at all though, is it because of le fedora atheist memes?
>>
>>80575628
It just looks stupid. It doesn't go with the rest of what he's wearing. No one else seems to wear them in this universe. Would it bug you if one of the characters had a penis drawn on his face for no reason?
>>
I was such a big fan of this show but it seems to have gone to shit in the absence of Miller

I feel like that guy was carrying this show
>>
>>80575717
yeah he was half the plot, and the other half isn't doing much.
>>
>>80575691

In fairness, the other characters constantly make fun of his hat. It's treated in-universe as something that makes him look stupid.
>>
>>80575691
What a weird analogy. Miller wears the hat for aesthetic reasons, that's all there is to it. If you want to come up with a deeper reasoning for it, feel free to use your imagination.
>>
>>80575959
What if the character drew a penis on their face for aesthetic reasons?

Fast paced is a pace anon.

Let's be honest. Most guys here haven't had the opportunity to have more than one or two types of girls. I'm just saying that Miller could have been happy with best girl if not for ayylmao protochick.

is that the book explanation? kinda funny how well it fits with his white knighting julie

Last few episodes were boring. Maybe it will pick up when that expedition gets to Venus.

And I'm starting to hate Holden. He's acting like a retard.
>>
>>80575995
I'm sure there's a belter out there who got a dick tattooed on his face for aesthetic reasons. I would totally accept that t b h.

Last ep was cool, I loved the deep voiced chick in last ep.

That scene was the best thing in my life in the past 30 days.

Genuinely laughed. glol


Now we wait for Miller.

I noticed Expanse has episodes of various density, some are fillers and some are just perfect non stop ride. Still better filler to substance ratio than Breaking Bad.

I just love syfy.

earth - europe
mars - usa
belter - refugees

I guess. His stupidity was less obvious when Miller was 60% of the screen time though.

But I guess it makes sense since the guy is just some ice miner.

There are at least 9 books written or planned. You think Syfy wlll allow a show to go on that long?

Don't even bother getting invested.

Even when it was SciFi, the longest shows ever ran for was 4 seasons.

Hope you faggots enjoy reading.

How are they mercs by that? They are closest to slaves, and regarded inferior by both planets.

Its like calling negros in slave time - merchants. lol
They work but they dont profit from it.

They are fighting for independence.

>>80579434
Belters are getting payed for working on company owned ships.
And whe have seen that plenty of belters have private ships and more.
Deigo (that paki belter) uncle had his own ice hauler ship for example.
Its just that they get shit money for the stuf they mine and everything out there has claims on it from mars or earth.

'The Magicians' is the epitome of trashy TV; overly attractive people attend a salacious, frat-version of Hogwarts, and find themselves in increasingly implausible situations requiring them to strip naked or have sex.

Kind of a statement to separate him from other belters. There's no reason for him to wear a hat in space. He even mentions he wears it to keep the rain of his head.
>>
>>80572499
It's doesn't. It's not a good show. /tv/ lied but it's literally the only space sci-fi show on television so now I'm stuck watching this trash
>>
>>80580941
First season was excellent; idk who fucked up but the second season is markedly different. The last episode was almost 100% fanfic compared to the books, whereas the first season was quite faithful. It only resorted events slightly to put Miller and Holden on Eros together.
>>
>>80581289
Pretty simple explanation... S1 was made pre-Trump. S2 post-Trump.
>>
>>80581742
That has literally nothing to do with the show.

protip: Trump is not the epicenter of the universe, despite what proggies say.
>>
>>80581742
How is it in any way related to Trump? The book was written pre-Trump, and the show follows the books very closely.
