Best line delivery of S1 deserves to be the title
The Expanse S2 |OT| You guys look like shit
It's all yours. You have squatter's rights since you did the S1 OT, and I'm sure people in this thread would be happy to help you out with some of the particulars like graphics.Would definitely be interested if nobody else felt strongly about making it, I know Jeff was interested but got tied up last year. I think the more people involved the more fun it is, so I'd be happy to step aside. If not I'd be happy to have some help with some graphics (so I'm not just pulling promo art), recaps, etc.
S1 is up on Amazon Prime Video now
lt519 - are you going to do the S2 OT? It wouldn't go up until early February, but I wanted to see if you were interested.

Me too. Not sure what the deal is.
One request.
Remember the cut.
Remember the cut.
They'll probably wait to see some of the S2 ratings before making that decision.Can't wait until this returns. Any one know when we will know if there is a series 3 or not?
We're weeks away from the premiere of Season 2 of The Expanse, and as the show and books both continue to garner critical praise as well as shout-outs galore, now seemed like the perfect time to announce some news: Syfy Wire introduces The Churn, The Expanse's after-show podcast.
Are you excited? You should be, because every week, authors and The Expanse universe creators Ty Franck and Daniel Abraham (aka James SA Corey) will be joining me and Adam Swiderski (both of us die-hard The Expanse book and show fans) to break down every nook and cranny of each episode. What was cool? What wasn't? What blew our minds? And where did it come from? We'll be discussing it all.
Each episode of Syfy Wire's The Churn will go live Wednesday nights immediately after that evening's east coast airing of the show, starting February 1st with the two-part season premiere.
I also finished Babylon's Ashes few days ago. It was great.
Next book is in 2018?

The Expanse (Feb. 1, 10 p.m., Syfy)
This Season's Theme: "Season 1 was lighting a lot of fuses," says co-creator Mark Fergus, "Season 2, you get to watch the payoff of all these things that have been set into motion."
Where We Left Off: Eros was decimated by the protomolecule and the entire solar system was on the brink of war.
Coming Up: Now that the stories of Avasarala (Shohreh Aghdashloo), Miller (Thomas Jane), and Holden (Steven Strait) have all converged, its time to introduce the last main player in the brewing conflict: Mars. Well learn what their objectives are and how they plan to achieve them. "Were no longer holding mysteries back from the audience," says Fergus, likening the measured pace of the first ten episodes to a Hitchcock thriller. "Now is the time to really ratchet up and pay off all these promises we made to the audience."
Ooh, this series has an OT. Cool.
I just started reading the book. How is the TV show? Is it a good adaptation?
Ha ha. Syfy has been doing some fun marketing this Winter between this and The Magicians.

They've specifically stated that's what they're doing. Now we'll see if they can deliver.This upcoming season has to up the ante in regards to plot. First season while enjoyable, felt like a big tease of things to come. Now it's time to take that next step towards scifi-stardom. Scifi-veterans that succeeded in a long-term storytelling (Babylon 5, BSG...) are waiting. Join them brothers!
Miller started out the first season really cynical but he changed and evolved as the season went on and now hed even go the extra mile for Julie. Will that continue?
Thomas Jane: Yeah. I think Julie really struck a chord in Miller. Millers very much the opposite of Julie Mao (played by Florence Faivre). Miller is a survivor; he takes care of himself first and then lets everybody else do their own thing. Hes very Darwinian. And yet Julie Mao is the one who has everything, is in the upper stratosphere of our planetary culture. Shes up there in the top half of one percent and she throws all of that away to dedicate her life to a people she doesnt know when its not even her race. Shes not a Belter, and hes become fascinated with who is that person? Why would she do that? What does she get out of that? And it turns him around. It really throws a wrench into his plans.
He really had a good system worked out where he could manipulate the system to his advantage. Julie Mao threw a wrench into that and hes still trying to work out how to either get that out or have to rejigger his world view to accommodate this woman and who she represents to him. I love it. I love this story. I love Miller.
More via the link.Why are you such a fan of the genre?
Thomas Jane: Well, I have a graphic novel company called Raw Studios and we do science fiction graphic novels. Weve done two and I think were working on one more. Were also doing a gothic horror comic that were working on. So, genre has always been a part of my life. I grew up loving all genres, whether its Western or science fiction or horror. Im a big genre fan. I love the traditions. I love the different interpretations and its just a nice way to sort of classify or categorize different styles of telling stories. So, Im always on the lookout for good genre. Its hard to find and when you find it I tend to try to make the most of it. This is really smart, well thought out, good genre. So for me its a perfect fit.
Much more via the link."The sets they came up with for Season 2 are astounding," Abraham said. "I walked into some of the things that they built for Season 2, and it was like nothing I have ever seen before it was awesome."
Abraham called out the Tycho space station in particular, which is serving as Outer Planets Alliance headquarters at the start of the second season, as a particularly cool locale that's given a closer look during the upcoming season.
"I think that [Tycho's operations center] is the biggest set we've ever built," Franck added. "It looks like the Kennedy Space Center. You could launch space shuttles in there."
They also mentioned the Martian soldier Bobbi Draper's warship which Franck told the production team to make look like "a flying threat" as another striking Season 2 set piece.
Draper herself whom fans of the book have been very excited to meet will make her first appearance at the beginning of Season 2, as well.
"Bobbi is awesome, and Frankie [Adams, the actress playing her] is awesome," Abraham said. "I am in a constant struggle not to just be smug about Frankie Adams in this."
I just finished book 2. Avasarala is fucking awesome. By comparison, show Avasarala is somewhat disappointing so far. But there's time to fix that.
I haven't read the books, but Avasarala turned out pretty baller near the end of the season and the show kind of set her up as somebody to be reckoned with in the future.
