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. | ||

+ 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. | ||

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?) | ||

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. | ||

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!". | ||

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. | ||

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 | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||

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? | ||

+ Show Spoiler + 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. | ||
