Ok, so its not Game of Thrones in space. In the fact that they do not murder main characters at a whim to advance the plot. Unless they go crazy and don't follow the later books. But it is very, very, very good.

Watched all 4 episodes I really like the series so far. My question is what the hell was going on in the first part of the first episode with the girl?

how could this not be the best SF series of all time ?

It definitely doesn't have much in common with game of thrones other than its good and its based on a novel series. That said I do agree, this show looks like it has potential to be the best hard sci-fi series so far if it can keep delivering.

Thanks for the tip! I now watched all 4 episodes that are available right now and I have to say I really enjoyed them,
The expanse seems to be a level abvove other scifi shows that premiered this year like Dark Matter or Kill Joys.

Well I really think the 1st for episode hacve a GoT feel to them.
Introduces some characters, then kill them.
Heavy politic tensions, rebel faction, ...
Somewhat violent.

So I maintain that it's really GoTesque right now, but I haven't read to book so it might not be the case after everything has settle.

hah....once more I have to thank TL for pointing out an amazing tv series to me

So...Thank you, TL!

OT: enjoyed the 4 episodes that are available so far immensely, would recommend it to everyone into sci-fi stuff, you don't have to be part of the crowd that enjoys "hard" sci-fi to be immediately sucked into this world.

Well, leaves me me pining for more is all I'm gonna say.
Nothing worth having comes easy.

The girl is the one the detective on Ceres is looking for. What happened to her will be revealed later.

the short stories that take place before the first novel were interesting enough, some decent world-building in them but i'm sure they're likely not required reading. gotta start up the first book.

on topic, next episode comes out Tue, Jan 05 at 7:00 PM. Still over a week, hnnnnnnnnnggggg.

Thanks for the thread, just watched the first four episodes and can't wait for episode 5. This show really has potential, I like how it hooks you right from the get go, unlike so many shows which require you to watch an entire season before it really grabs you. Or in the case of TNG, two seasons...

This looks to be a good one. Thoroughly enjoyed it so far, Looking forward to Jan 5th to watch the next episode, glad we got 3+4 ahead of time though as those were the episodes that really brought me into enjoying the show

I hope the detective's partner stays around, I feel he has a lot of potential for growth and potentially playing a huge part in any negotiations as he was trying to understand the culture of ceres and assimilate while being from earth

Looks like I have some books to pick up

Just finished 1-4,
Agree with the consensus, I'm hooked on the series already, I really enjoy this style of gritty sci-fi.
I'll probably look into picking up the books once the first season is over.

Finished reading The Expanse Book 1 (Leviathan Wakes) and also read the preceding shorts - chronology wise (Drive, The Churn, The Butcher of Anderson Station) and just watched episode 5.
Glad they weaved in much of the Butcher of Anderson Station, pretty faithful to the original so far.

Been a while since i watched the episodes, but didn't he mean the Girl that the dark haired dude was banging in zero gravity that said smth like " i have to tell you something" 2 seconds before she dies when the ship explodes?
And he then later has a dream about where she says the same sentence?

Wasnt that a different girl than the one the Detective on Ceres is looking for?

Miller is looking for Julie Mao to figure out what happened to her. If they are remaining faithful to the book, she should have been in the first episode, likely the opening scene and not having sex with anyone.

The first part of the first episode shows Julie Mao, alone in a spacecraft. That's who SigmaoctanusIV meant. She's the girl that Miller, the Ceres detective is looking for, so Twoflowers was correct.

The "I have to tell you something" girl was a different girl. She is dead now. We don't know what happened to Julie Mao.
