In my opinion, it's really simple. Toss Naomi and Holden into the sun.

Make these 3 the new main characters.

Find some excuse to bring Drummer back.

There, all done.

You too most likely.

You on the other hand are going to have a good time.

There are at least 9 books written or planned. You think Syfy will 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.

Honestly what were they thinking? Book 1 you can make TV out of. Book 2, sure. 3 Eh.

But then it's all political. And you've set your audience up for monster/aliums. No fucking way they can do this.
>>
>>82067758
>toss naomi
>literally the most interesting character in nemesis games and babylon's ashes
also
>not wanting to see the scene of holden showing his gf to his 9 moms and dads
he is boring as shit tho and alex\amos arre boring pre nemesis games

if anyone needs to be tossed its show bobby, she's fat,weak,a womanlet,shit at acting and looks\acts nothing like bobby.

how to fix the show :
>1 season = 1 book
>maybe cibola burn can be cut in half
>not the retarded shit they did with s1 and s2 where they put the final act of each book in the next season
shit destroys the pacing of the show which is retarded because the books had perfect pacing making you wanna read the next one without cliffhanging you .s1 should have ended with eros in venus s2 in eros rising from venus s3 ending in the rings opening s4 covering the first half of cibola burn and ending in the planet exploding and s5 ending with miller and the black spot
>>
is persepolis rises going to be about them defending the ring station from ex matrians with advanced aylium tech?
they already included the main dude from a vital abyss novella (the only good expanse novella, other 2 are shit although the amos one kinda explains his arc in nemesis games ) in the show as the protogen dude that fred johnson kept and lost .
and most importantly when will they stop making this show and will i get to see the battles of babylon's ashes ?

expanse surpassing GoTshit and syfy announcing a blindsight\echopraxia show when ?

Can people stop fucking posting this? Despite what Magic School Bus told you, you do not instantly freeze when exposed to space. In fact, one of the missing aspects of the show is that despite every running around with a high power nuclear reactor there are no radiators in sight.

>cremate = disintegrator?
This on the other hand was bullshit.
>>
they should have more episodes per season so each season follows the books. season one should have been season 1+the first 5 episodes of season 2 until eros crashes into venus. they could probably cram it down to 13 episodes if they take away some of the filler scenes.
>>
>>82072796
>Honestly what were they thinking? Book 1 you can make TV out of. Book 2, sure. 3 Eh.
Just do what they've done so far with both seasons, borrow stuff from later books.

proofs?
by my logic, there is vacuum, 0 atoms to be somwhat heated by the sunlight, so if no heat-> there must be freezing cold out there

kind like the same with sounds, no atoms, matter to resonate eachother so the sound don't spread

>>82081667
So if you freeze instantly, where do you suppose all that heat goes if there is
>0 atoms (not actually accurate either)
to exchange heat with?
You just radiate it all instantly?

God I hope this show goes under during the writers strike
>>
The awful performances and sets that look like something from a high school play or an episode of Alf are really beginning to creak under the weight of the grandiose plot. I found Miller pretty annoying in the books but in the show Thomas Jane really made up for a lot of the weaker parts. Naomi's refugee adventure was awful from beginning to end and it's clear they just used it as padding for one half of the episode because it was cheap to shoot.
>>
I genuinely want to enjoy this show but I hate every character/faction in it. Miller was the exception, but now that he's gone I just want the entire system to die off. I don't know if it's the acting or the writing, but as the seasons progress I find myself hating the characters more and more. The plot becomes less and less interesting.
It's sad that the only dude left on the program I find remotely tolerable is that autistic fuck Amos.
>>
>>82082363
I have issues with S2 but I appreciate a series that is more focused on telling a story than in trying to make characters that people can furiously masturbate to because they identify with them.
>>
>>82072526
Book 9 is the definitive end to the series according to the writers. They've already stretched this shit out way too long.
>>
>>82081158
>Prax

hahahaha
>>
>>82067758
The crew of the Roci is the worst part of the book series and their fucking impenetrable plot armor sparing them from Holden's dumbfuck decisions at every turn have ruined everything about it.
>>
>>82081158
>prax dying
lol no,they need some clueless civilian. and when prax is gone they'll replace him with a biologist that lusts after holden's cock.
>>82083280
>implying the development of naomi\alex\amos in book 5 wasnt great .
holden is bland and annoying tho and i agree with the plot armor shit , i mean amos 'died' twice already (earth specops on ganymede and murtry on ilus) they should have lost a -well developed- crew member by now (im looking at you shed)

also what the fuck is up with clarissa ? i can understand amos trying to take pity on her and rescuing her from earth but every time they're mentioning they're letting her stay on the ship it makes my blood boil.they cant interview a bunch of dudes and find a new crewmate but they'll just let somone who murdered her coworker with her bare hands, hid him in her locker and blew up a ship of civilians none of which she knew or did her any harm work on their ship ?

read echopraxia and wait for his next book i guess . personally the only space book as good as blindsight i ever read was solaris and those two are IMO the best (and most believable) first contact stories ever made .

First season whets your appetite with beautiful cinematography and 2 epic fights per episode, so you go along even though the story is meh.
Second season doesn't have much to offer.

Yeah, I liked the show better when it was detective techno noir. There was even a moment when I was reflecting on that and how lucky I felt that I finally started watching it, because there really hasn't been much of any tech noir TV in my lifetime and it felt really good to finally have some. Then a moment later Miller literally walks into a club with a neon sign above it that said "tech noir" and it peaked.
