Somebody just watched the Expanse for the first time and thinks it’s a neat new thing to explain to the Earthers
That journalist is a real wellwalla
i knew the expanse would pop up somewhere in the comments! been working my way through the books and it's great!
Is it weird that I've only ever read the books? I didn't even know there was a show until recently. Is it any good?
It's fairly good. Some things are a bit abridged for the sake of action and visuals. Like travel that takes weeks is sometimes happening within hours or days.
However the dialogue, writing and characters are pretty good. It did lack a bit in season 6 (the last one) but that's because the material wasn't there yet in the books and somehow it cuts things short with material from book 6 at best.
Thanks, I might check it out!
Also Passengers, starring Chris Pratt, has a mention of this too.
