I want to thrust my penis into Drummer's vagina repeatedly while we are both unclothed, until my body reaches the point of orgasm, at which point I would ejaculate semen into her vagina without removing my penis first, thereby potentially inseminating the eggs in her ovaries with my seed if you know what I mean

Not at all. Everything about the first season is showing how different life is while living out in the solar system and space long term. Working, eating, shopping, showering, going to the bar, sex, etc. All very different.

Will we ever get closure to this show?
>>
>>220996067
If the game generates enough new fans that another network wants to make the final three seasons, then yes
>>
>>220996067
even if they decide to cotinue it, the last books, after season 6 are set like 50 years in the future, so its gonna be mostly new characters anyway
>>
would you have justified Naomi if she were cute or hot? like Chase Infiniti hot
>>
>>220996306
Yeah, she's way cuter and more pleasant in the books. I don't know why they turned her girlbossness up so high on the show. They should have hired a really tall actress. She should have been as tall as the belter girl in the first season that falls in love with Miller's Earth partner. Normalize tall girl short guy!
>>
When they make the final three seasons, it will be the first show to have actors age up for real to actually play their older characters instead of makeup
>>
>>220994065
can anons let me know that I'm not alone in feeling drummer finding her way into a spaceship polycule between seasons we very jarring and out-of-character?
I don't have any particular bias against the idea, nor do I think it would be out of place at all in the expanse universe, but for drummer specifically it felt like a very bizarre asspull that didn't compliment her character at all. she was very reserved and guarded in the previous seasons. she aggressively kept up boundaries even when she didn't need to. and then all of the sudden, she's like "I feel like being emotionally exposed to multiple people in a multi-dimensional and inherently unpredictable relationship"
tell me I'm not alone in this (hardmode: agree with me without being a bigot)
>>
>>220995285
I was kinda pissed they didn't just kill her off. they wanted to juice the narrative value of tragedy but not commit to it. and then she's just 'fixed' shortly after. woulda been a better story if she had sacrificed and died
>>
>>220995387
based anon understands world-building
one of the best things about the expanse was how it really created a different world. something that really bothered me about the later seasons was how they abandoned that ambition and defaulted to
>here's some basic fabs in a very earth-like planet
I'm sure it was mostly because of budget, but it definitely hurt the series a lot

>>220996067
>Will we ever get closure to this show?
no. amazon showed they have zero interest in finishing the run. they didn't even have interest in finishing the last season
and if you look at their handling of stargate, they canceled the project because they were afraid it was only going to pull in established viewers of the franchise and not reach a 'broader audience'
amazon just wants to make money, they don't want to tell (and especially finish) stories
>>
>>220997797
Well, she's still alive in the books and also a merger of several other characters so they couldn't just kill her off in the show
>>
>>220994065
>>220994158
She should have been the lead instead of that shitskin.
>>
>>220995285

>>
>>220996298
>after season 6 are set like 50 years in the future, so its gonna be mostly new characters anyway
that would be pretty sick honestly. miller and amos were the only good characters. miller died and amos ran his course. I'd honestly love to spend more time in the expanse universe but with a fresh cast of characters
>>
>>220997940
Amos and Bobbi should have made an ass-kicking startup with Drummer managing it. Drummer and Bobbie are an item, and Amos remains in his curious, quiet cuck status.
>>
>>220997857
I mean.. yeah, that was kind of the point of holden. he was a random long-hauler from some hick montana town who finds himself in the middle of everything. he never planned to be a hero, or a leader, or a revolutionary. he was just a guy. if the proto-molecule never happened to him, he woulda died doing nothing more than flying haulers to and from the belt
>>
>>220997899
this isn't a good perspective to me. if her character is too important, then they shouldn't have used her for tragedy bait they knew they couldn't commit to. but also, if she's a "merge", then she's not a real character anyway and they can just "merge" storylines into some other character just as easily
its just not great story-telling to me. I'd rather them introduce some throw-away character that gets 4 episodes then crushed to death. that makes a more engaging emotional hook than drummer getting a fake tragedy
>>
>>220997940
Kek Amos didn't run his course. He still has plenty big part to play in the final three books

You're not alone
As soon as Amazon bought the show it looked way better instead of shooting on SciFi channel tiny sets, they poured a ton of money into location shooting, cgi budget, planets, etc
Of course this means the writing took an absolute nosedive
If you have a low budget, you're forced to either have good writing or a fun show to survive (like Farscape or Babylon 5)
If you have a massive budget, you hire your niece to be onw of 20 committee writers and they have to make everything about feelings and love and crying and gay/black oppression (like nuTrek or any Foundation, or any other Amazon show)
It got so bad in the later seasons that Naomi Nagata was crying more than Michael Burnham (plus the fucking stupid Leia style surviving in space)

>>220994065
one thing that the expanse did really well is that as the show progressed, holden legitimately looked like he was fighting a losing battle with all the radiation he had been exposed to.
by the end of the last season he really did look like he was physically ravaged from all the antirad hed been taking.
and if they ever did pick it up again, its gonna be one hell of a timeskip if they follow the newest book.

My understanding was he supposed to be a boring rich kid from a comfy, but sheltered, background. Wouldn't call that hick, but I get what you mean and it worked for his character.
>>220997767
Nah, it did feel a little out of character for someone who seemed like a serious militant in earlier seasons. They all seemed way softer in the later seasons.
>>
>>220997981
holden was a genetic freak and performed very well in the UNN before he burned out
he's an exceptional guy that doesn't want to be a hero, not just a random dork
>>
>>220995334
He's supposed to be a spoiled, sheltered, heir to some fortune on Earth fucking around in a comfy job as captain of a ship.
It's direct contrast to Miller in S1, who's a belter living in a dumpy apartment on Ceres and is a hardened detective about ready to check out. It's a solid setup for when his crew eventually meets Miller and Miller quickly becomes defacto leader of the group by experience, even though Holden is captain.

It's 30 years, and in the expanse universe middle age is significantly elongated, with people frequently living past 100, longer for the rich.

The main cast would be mid60s, but the equivalent of our 50.
Outside of Avasalara, just sprinkle some gray in their hair and call it a day.

There was a mech. The Expanse never got the budget to do it real justice. Everything about the protomolecule tech was meant to display just how gigantic of a leap it was over the top tier human tech.

>>
>>221011731
It wasn't abrupt. They've been warning of people dying to strokes during high g burns repeatedly every season. It can happen to anyone at any time. Alex's death is just Fred Johnson's from the books.
>>
>>221009995
it is quite fearsome. wish they'd used the railgun a little more after the upgrade
>>
>>221011793
it's not surprising that it happened, it's the delivery. up until then characters are given long, dramatic shots of them dealing with high Gs (the canterbury doing the hard turn in ep1, the roci chasing eros, avasarala and bobbie burning hot in the razorback, etc). with alex it happens completely off screen and we get no reaction shots of him as the focus is entirely on naomi slowly asphyxiating and bobbie securing her. i guess i just wanted one or two shots of alex suffering from the Gs before we see him stroked out dead, considering he was a main cast member in every episode up until then (second billing in the credits even, behind only holden's actor IIRC)
