It is because they did not make it. Alcon Entertainment did and sold 3 seasons to SyFy. And now Amazon will pay for the next ones thanks to Bezos.

Oh I see, had no idea about Alcon. That explains a lot since the production quality is way beyond something SyFy does.
why do you not believe it? the legend has alived!

I want to know if they threw rocks with protomolecule on it or not. Because it would be fucking insaaaane
Amos better fucking survive this season tho, my favourite character by far.

Not a fan of the Marco Inaros casting. Looks way to much like a slimy bad guy, not like a charismatic leader.
Then again I already hated the book character because he was too stereotypical.

yea the characters in the books (less so in the show but i think that is down to acting?) are very streamlined and adapted to their role in the plot, they make sense but often lack depth. I think what you describe here as "too stereotypical" is a result of shaving off redundancy and polishing, honestly they might have fit my taste better if they released earlier and rougher versions of their books, longer messier versions.

Still, the show is pretty awesome and the books are a good read too

This season delivers so far :O

I never knew that Thomas Jane (aka Miller) was a director for 503 episode, what a cool dude

I have a feeling this season so far will not be well received by the general audience because there is a lot of exposition and several parallel plots which make it harder to follow.

But I am loving it so far. It is just classic SciFi. Lots of details to appreciate in the sets, the CGI shots etc. And some interesting new side characters. Though I just cant take the Admiral buddy of Avasarala serious, I am always thinking of Christobal (Barry).

I also think this season is pretty strong so far. I just wish we got all episodes at once...

I think the season is mostly great so far, but I'm also already slightly disappointed that there will be only 10 episodes because I really would like some more "world-building" and introduction to the new characters. And I think it would also be beneficial to maintain the long-term quality of the show overall.

What I wonder about the reaction to the stealth-asteroid threat, and maybe I misunderstood a few things here:
1. Why would these stealth-piercing "watchtowers" be pointed only at mars in the first place? Even if their point is to prevent an attack by mars, is there any reason to assume mars would be unable to launch stealth missiles from ships, satellites, or other bases like the one where Bobby was attacked by that hybrid, so essentially anywhere in the universe?
2. Avasaralas reactions seemed...... inconsistent with the gravity of the situation, at least initially? Like, "yes we should do something about it but only if it does not endanger my own career". What happened to "Earth must come first", or was that always just a convenient slogan to discredit those who opposed her (it's a while since I watched the earlier seasons, so my memory of some details might be off)? She didnt even try to save her family? My impression is that she was primarily concerned about saving what was left of the influence she once had, even if that meant risking the lifes of virtually any inhabitant of earth in the process.

Only at episode 4 rn, but only the admiral backed out. She had no options left until the attack which proved her right.

Best parts of the show (Amos, the conflicts independent of magic space juice) continue to be great, things I dislike the most (Everything involving Holden or Naomi, the pilot whose name I can't even remember's attempts at acting) continue to be not to my tastes. Kind of wish Drummer had a real character to play off of here as well.

God damn though I am so annoyed + Show Spoiler +
Ashford died.
(only spoilers for last season)

Will probably stick out the season, given the seeming reduction in focus on the protomolecule receiving new properties as the plot demands and more focus of it as a WMD whose specific properties are mostly
unimportant.
