What I love about The Expanse is that it isn't just about the Rocinante. Its about all of the factions and the characters in those factions as well.

Well now that I have Amazon Prime I can catch up on this show. :)

Wow, you are in for a treat. They do NOTHING wrong in this show. No missteps, no superfluous soapy drama, nothing that does not add to the story. And an added bonus is that the novels were written first, and since the authors are also the showrunners, we get a truly superior translation of novel into series. It's FLAWLESS. Nothing to compare it to really.

One of the strengths of the show is that it stays on target. No wasted episodes on side items not relevant to the main story - the show stays zeroed in on the main plot points and keeps them moving.

I am pacing myself right now. Seen it twice. Don't want to watch it so often that I get to a point when I see three seconds of an ep and there's no point watching the rest coz I can play the rest of it in my head. At least not yet. Probably gonna wait until the next season comes along.

Me too. I burn out on stuff like that sometimes too. :) I can literally recite lines in some TOS episodes.

Who the hell is the guy beside Julie's sister ? Looks like a young Al Pacino

Do you have a timestamp reference from that video where I can see him?

So tell me how you guys are watching The Expanse on Amazon Prime ? I can't even get it to play any thing and the search in prime is not finding anything to do with The Expanse .
I am getting the warning ( this video is unavailable in your area) but it won't let me use my vpn at all

I haven't started watching it yet. I'm working my way thru a bunch of stuff first. I'll let you know as soon as I try though.
