nope doesn't work outside the US, but some free proxy should be enough to connect. With netflix and so on a VPN is well worth a few dollars a month anyway.

Trying to watch anything on Syfy's site is a hopeless endeavor in my experience, at least with a proxy. I tried. I did, however, manage to get the episodes through Google Play. For anyone in EU, this will take a bit of internet-fu, but it feels a little better (and more helpful for Syfy?) than pirating.

Regarding the 5th episode:
+ Show Spoiler +
I don't understand why they would ever trust some random person telling them to come to him. The only people, as far as they know, who might know where they are, are the guys who just destroyed the Donnager.
If we hit that bull's eye, the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate.

They need to dock someplace. They can't stay out in space forever and all the other stations are owned either by Earth or Mars. That is the only place they can dock and be assured they won't be caught by whoever destroyed the Donnager. They also know who he is and that he isn't aligned with either faction.

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?


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


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?


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.

Ah right i remember now, thanks.

Do we ever find out what that dead girl meant with "i need to tell you smth" or was it smth dumb and pointless?
(propably book spoilers i suppose so tags needed?)

That line doesn't appear in the books, she just counts down to impact. At this point they think the ship just wants to disable the cants engines to board it. They didn't suspect it was to be nuked. The line was probably added for drama.

Pretty sure they did go through this in the episode... and he's not that random since they knew who he was.

Sort of digging the "gundam" vibe to the universe.
Not a fan (book series), but for a syfy sci-fi impressed by the production level.
Wish they advertised it better than saying "Game of thrones in space!".

I don't see the problem with going to a Mars base. They have the info file on the ships that attacked the Donnager. And they can testify that Mars wasn't behind the attack on their ship, since they know that now.
And what is their plan anyway? Clearly they are going to be wanted. Do they plan to go into hiding? Surrendering to the authorities seems like the best option to me.

I guess there's no guarantee that their testimony has any meaning.
Mars could see it as an excuse to not be blown up (Donnager exploded they left in a shuttle)
As the guy said 'we look like terrorists'
I can sort of get it, although I agree with you partially

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


You just explained it: it's GoT in space. They seem so busy translating the story of the book to the screen that they aren't taking care to make sure that every episode tells a meaningful thematic story. It's just "here are things that happen, plot twist, here are more things that happen." Are you totally hooked on the plot? Great, you're gonna love every minute. Is the plot not enough? You're gonna find the show pretty empty, then.

Episode 4 was definitely my favorite so far, we saw the gang aboard the Donnager start to turn on each other, meanwhile the UN secretary used and abused her friendship with the ambassador. Got some pretty legit drama out of that.

But then episode 5 rolls around and Holden's like "I'm not evacuating this ship without my friends who I accused of being treasonous OPA assholes, who I don't know anything about, two hours ago." Wait, what? They're thick as thieves all of a sudden? I get that he's the Good Guy and all, but it felt really forced.

On the plus side, the story is intriguing, the world is cool and original, some of the cinematography and sfx is shockingly good, and Thomas Jane is endlessly watchable as Miller (one of my biggest complaints is how little screentime he's had so far). The show seems to have some real atmosphere. Despite the above criticism, I'm definitely tuning in next week.

But if you think this is the best SF series of all time, I'm guessing you haven't seen Battlestar Galactica. Go watch that. Like right now.

edit: almost forgot, how good is Jared Harris as Anderson Dawes?! Holy shit! As someone who knows him primarily from Mad Men and guest stints on dreckier shows, I was blown away by the range he shows here.

This is spot on. Agreed that ep. 4 was fantastic, and after binge watching the first 4 I think it made me come in expecting to much from ep 5. Overall the quality of this show's been amazing and hopefully it gets enough of a legal viewership to keep it afloat.

Aliens... Like every sci-fi, they bring in aliens...


Really are you a fan of the book series?
After getting hyped for this series I read first 2 books in the series.
Not a big fan.
What did you like about the books?

They don't exactly bring in aliens. It's a bit more complicated than that.
What I really like is the politics involved in everything, and I grew to like the characters.
