The Expanse on SyFy: Discussion - Spoilers.

[rkgardner2003]

This is about 30 min long, but I enjoyed it. It gives a recap of season 1, has some behind the scenes stuff too, season 2 sneak peek.

YAY! The Expanse has been renewed for a third season! When I saw the news about the 12 Monkeys renewal earlier, I was hoping that we'd get news on The Expanse today as well.

Read a few select comments have to agree, great Sci fi. I would think of it more as a space based detective story.

Spoiler:

Understand they're going to have a Einstein-Rosen Bridge/stargate later in the show.

[Perelandra]

do we have a date yet for season three premiere? The Expanse and 12 Monkeys are the only shows I have been watching on Syfy. I've been going to the website but have only seen 2018.

[unscheduled traveller]

So far both the wore and IMDB list only 2018.

Hey mods/Darren, can we get season three episode discussions up in this area since the show has returned?

[GateWorld]

Will do! Sorry for the delay.

Thank you Darren

I just finished the series and loved it.

However the rings, Stargates much? come on?

I know nothing is original any more but they're like Stargates but without the dialing.


But I FREAKING LOVE THE SHOW.

Chrisjen is awesome.

But the aliens are kind of boneheads, why would you create something so dangerous like the protomolecule and unleash it on unsuspecting solar systems? I get it they don't care but why would you make stuff like this?

I kept thinking protoculture haha, but that was Robotech.

Now that we have a season 4 will we find out more about them or will it be like cryptic soup and we have to muddle through cryptic clues which I find an annoying trope and overused.

It's quite possible that was the reason why the

Ooooh shiny.

Season 4

Does anyone know if season 4 will be on Netflix or available to buy on disk?

Since it was bought by Amazon you'll likely need to watch it on Amazon Prime. As a direct competitor to Netflix I doubt they'll get it any time soon. Otherwise I'm sure it'll be released on disk eventually.

Season 4 updates:

It's not clear from the tweet if hallucination-Miller will be appearing in Season 4 or not, but Thomas Jane was definitely on set this past Saturday

Shohreh Aghdashloo (Avasarala) completed her filming for Season 4 on this past Sunday

Dominique Tipper (Naomi) finished her filming for Season 4 yesterday, and seems to be saying that the entire season has wrapped filming

Rough cuts of the first three episodes of Season 4 are in a watchable state


EDIT:

Burn Gorman (of Torchwood note) will be appearing in Season 4

And Frankie Adams (Bobbie) has also completed filming

[DigiFluid]

Wes Chatham (Amos) completed his filming for Season 4 today

[Coco Pops]

I love Frankie Adams as Bobbie. She rocks.

[DigiFluid]

Production on Season 4 wrapped at 2am on February 8

And judging from Thomas Jane's hair, he is indeed appearing in the show again.

The Expanse is ending with six seasons.

I'm really bummed because while book six is a sort of ending it is before they get back to the alien arc, which is my favorite part of the series.

At least it still got three new seasons after getting cancelled.
