THE EXPANSE --it's premise, plot and socio-political implications
- Thread starter YJ02
- Start date
So if I understand the books correctly the next steps should be:
Naomi briefly tries to return to the OPA, Avarsarala becomes the Secretary General, the peace is signed where Ceres comes under OPA governance, Bobbie Draper's record is cleared and she is decorated by the MCRN but winds up on medical leave for PTSD, Mao and Errinwright go to prison and of course....the Ring is built

It was another good ep. They all are really. There is no confirmation though that there are no more things which you mentioned in the first spoiler though, at least in the tv show so far.

What I mean is...
The fact that we saw a nuclear explosion in space from a distance does not mean that all of the hybrids have been destroyed.
Oh. Got it.
OM have you watched it yet? We are speaking in spoilers for your benefit.

My thinking is that Io is taken and the facilities destroyed as is the lab on Ganymede. Fred Thomas launched the nukes to intercept the hybrids going to Mars and Cotyar nuked the UNN Agatha King. I think they got it all because remember only kids with a very specific medical condition can be used as hybrids

Yeah, who here is a fan of The Expanse to the extent that they would like to avoid spoilers at all costs? And how long should people get the time to watch it before others could talk about it openly, like 48 hours?

No, just got home from my first full week at new job.I will watch it tonight.
Well, congrats on the new job!
And have you seen it now?
Sounds like Alcon is talking to Amazon Studios about them taking on The Expanse:

Amazon would actually be the perfect landing place for it. One has to remember the reason SyFy bailed finally was not lack of total viewership it was that the vast majority of the viewers were watching via Amazon and Netflix (Amazon in the US Netflix overseas), and for whatever reason SyFy had no cut of those revenues.

I am always okay with spoilers.
Knowing in advance what happens in this show is always going to be no surprise for me because I have already read the books.

My stomach turns when I think that shows like the rotting dead gets a constant million apon millions of viewers but a show like The Expanse, which is beyond outstanding in everyway gets eaten up by a big fat cancellation bear and shit out its arse . I am so confused ...
