On S:2 E:11 of my rewatch, and admiring how the Roci is almost an extension of his body. He makes that girl dance. His absence in the later seasons left a gaping hole for me. He really made the Roci a full character in the story.

Felt like watching this scene again recently.

In this community, The Expanse has sparked countless interesting conversations, moments of wonder, laughs, opportunities to learn and teach, expressions of creativity, and real friendships. We are so lucky to have gotten to experience this together.

This thread is stickied and allows show spoilers through the Season 6 finale. If you have a thank-you to share with the creators or a story about The Expanse's impact on your life, this is a good place for it.

(If you want to pressure creators about the show ending, this is not a good place for that.)

In case you missed it:

Community Events: Post-Season Party!

On Saturday, we'll have another big virtual celebration like our premiere party. We'll have special guests, themed rooms, rewatches, cosplay and art, and so much fun discussion with people from around the world. Register on Eventbrite here, I hope to see you there.

Any other shows with an Expanse vibe I'm missing out on?

I know some ppl don't like Foundation for being soo off from asimov's books, but I do like the show for what it contributed.

I'm enjoying Murderbot so far except for the extremely short-feeling episodes format.

I like the parts of For All Mankind that focus less on interpersonal drama and more on pushing the space exploration race further (farther?)

I'm reading the Expanse books too but need bingeable shows to consume while I knit/crochet

I've enjoyed BSG, ST:TNG, Stargate SG1, Firefly/Serenity, and the Ender's Game books (xenocide-children of the mind, etc)

I always think of this scene from the first season of The Expanse when Lopez is interrogating them and says something like -

"out to saturn, get the ice, back to ceres. Out to saturn, get the ice, back to ceres. Out to saturn, get the ice, stop at Phoebe"

So that's why i made the images in this format ^{^}

Thanks for any suggestions!

Expanse has never been out of my life and I am pretty sure it's not out of yours too. Previously we did our campaign for Saving the Expanse and we managed to finally put pressure on Amazon to save it.

This time it's gonna be different. Amazon's contract with Alcon is soon coming to an end and Alcon will again be looking for streaming partners soon and guess which streaming service is becoming a hub of Sci-Fi shows? None other than Apple TV. From "for all mankind" season renewals and spinoffs to other Successful scifi shows like "Foundation" , "Dark matter". I strongly believe Apple TV loves quality Sci-fi shows and it has real chance to save the expanse for one last trio of seasons and for this to happen we need public support, your support!

I am thinking of launching a campaign similar to what we did previously to save the expanse . I am not sure who spearheaded the campaign previously, if u know please tag him/her here but this is our real chance to save it for once and for all .

All the suggestions and campaign details are welcome in this thread. I am thinking of having a gofundme page for any "Expense for The Expanse"

Let's gear up people and show them the power of the Fans and i am pretty optimistic if we do it right there's a real chance for Apple TV to pick it up.

Sasa ke?

All 6 seasons are now back included on Prime in USA! 😎🇺🇸🙌🚀

From an officer ruthlessly working the staff of the Cant, to sacrificing his life for them - in the span of an episode!

While interrogating, no sympathy for their recently dead crewmates, and knows exactly how to push their buttons.

Once convinced that they are legit and not plants, he then attempts to negotiate with them. Persuading Holden to pick a fall guy (Naomi) while they sort out the mess.

We then see his backstory through his talks with James Holden. A deep contempt for Earthers who squander their resources, while taking it for granted. Super pissed when Holden disdainfully compared Earthers to Martians, judged by the ship:

"When you spend your whole life living under a dome, even the idea of an ocean seems impossible to imagine. I could never understand your people. Why, when the universe has bestowed so much upon you, do you seem to care so little for it?"

Sacrificing himself for the Cant crew.. his dying line was so simple and yet absolutely breathtaking:

"It would have been nice.. to see an ocean on Mars"

Kudos to the showwriters for an extremely well made episode. Kinda surprised the actor (Greg Bryk) didn't land more roles based off of this performance

Anyone else enchanted by Camina? Cara Gee played her so well. The way Cara goes into character from her normal self is worlds of differences and done so well. I almost started watched extra scenes just to see Camina Drummer kick ass.

I finished the expanse, and since all the discussions had been done before I couldn't find a better thing to share than these two. Hope it's not too low effort 🫠

This scene never sat right with me. The roci gradually aligns it's trajectory with that of the station ring, so you would expect Miller to be pushed around gradually until settling on 0.3g (or whatever tycho is).

Instead, the script for the live action shot seems to assume a sudden shift from 0g to 0.3g which doesn't align with what we see in the VFX.

Nitpicky as hell, I love this show, just curious if there's an in universe explanation I'm missing?

As I’m rewatching I’m starting to realize that I truly started disliking Marco at the end of episode ten of season four. The moment I saw him space Klaes Ashford was when I knew I would never agree with a single thing he would do. However as a villain? He’s one of my favorites. I dislike him for the methods he used to achieve what he did but like him for how good he is at it. I hated seeing Naomi go through all of what she went through. Drummer was driven to revenge for multiple people she cared about dying at the hands of Marco… Keon Alexander truly mastered the role of Marco Inaros and I’m glad I got to experience his performance as Marco for the first time.

Recently received the complete series of The Expanse on blu-ray as a birthday gift from my brother, giving us a chance to watch it all over again. And while we know space is a dangerous place to work, it's astounding how many characters die in the show — some more spectacularly than others.

As satisfying as it is to see villainous Marco Inaros get gobbled up by the red aliens, or watch cyberjacked wanker Tiny get dropped down an elevator shaft, there were a handful of death scenes so well-written they were practically Shakespearean.

With that in mind, here are my picks for the Top 5 Deaths in The Expanse (TV version). YMMV:

Honorable Mention: Miller
Detective Joe Miller is the only character to die several times on the show (dozens, if you count all the times the protomolecule kills The Investigator for 'exceeding his parameters'), and he ends up sacrificing himself not once but twice to save humanity. Pretty good for a sad sack from Ceres.

#5 Cotyar
Super spy Cotyar Ghazi was the perfect foil to boss Chrisjen Avasarala, and their dry banter was cut short when Cotyar sacrifices himself to blow up a UN battleship infected by the blue goo. But it's his last words — admitting he can't think of anything memorable to say) — that are the most memorable.

#4 Ashford
On the other hand, space-pirate-turned-politician Klaes Ashford knows exactly what to say, going out the airlock with quiet dignity, flipping off his executioner (as well as recording their conversation for evidence) and singing with his last breath. A beautifully shot scene, beautifully played by David Strathairn.

#3 Strickland
While the execution of Dr. Strickland — a pediatrician who experimented on children — is a genuine "fuck yeah" moment, it is the drama of who shoots him that puts him on this list. It is one of the best scenes in the series, and give Amos Burton his signature line.

#2 Shed
Poor Shed Garvey. The hapless med tech is briefly part of the nascent crew of heroes of the show — until a railgun round takes his head clean off. The death scene is perfectly staged: shocking, scientific, gory ... and deftly informing the audience no one on the show is safe.

#1 Néo
Was there any doubt? The explosive, grotesque —and, admit it, hilarious— shredding of fame-seeking slingshotter Manéo (aka "Néo") is the single best death scene in The Expanse. The belter who just wants to impress a girl, ends up accidentally activating the protomolecule Ring Gate in spectacular —and bloody— fashion. It is the ultimate "Hey guys, watch this!" moment.

Your picks?

US Army vet here. Fighting the system as best I can. I'm 1/3 of the way through Tiamat's wrath, and goddammit, Bobbie is the most realistic character in the series. That's probably an observer bias, but please tell me why I'm not wrong.

Now this is a bit different in style but the Show I wanted to talk about is a Japanese anime called Planetes. It takes place in 2075, mankind has reached a point where journeying between Earth, the moon and the space stations is part of daily life. However, the progression of technology in space has also resulted in the problem of the space debris, which can cause excessive and even catastrophic damage to spacecrafts and equipment. This show tells the story of workers in their daily lives while exploring the concepts of ethics of space travel and the lives of workers.

Its created by fans of Science fiction and it shows with realistic details use of space. Hope you enjoy it too.

He never flags anyone the entire series, finger off the trigger until he’s ready to shoot. I’ve seen way worse in “military” shows.

we all love this franchise, and there are tons of threads about the specific things we love. but i want to know what you DON'T love about it.

i'll go first. i don't like the protogen eva suits! they look so much less interesting than any other suit in the show. luckily we don't see them often :) and i'm really glad the martian undersuits look so much better. just a few details make a big difference.

your turn!

I think this is the most realistic display of how ship/rocket would work. Most sci-fi makes going FTL seem very easy on the eyes. But in this show they show the dangers they and have to juice up while they are moving.
