The Expanse revived for season 4 at Amazon

Thank God. Was really bummed this morning when I read this thread and saw it was cancelled at Syfy. Just the fact that they at least try to keep real physics was a huge plus. The story and characters being good was a bonus. One of the best scifi shows ever imo.

Praise sky daddy. I bet it shows much better numbers as well, all those people with Prime memberships don't have to pirate.
If Amazon gets the international rights (since apparently Netflix wasn't interested, they might also be dropping for the rest), I might finally get Prime next year...

They weren't interested in bankrolling the show, but that doesn't mean they don't want to milk distribution rights. I wouldn't be surprised if that was the biggest thorn in any potential Amazon negotiations, assuming Netflix got some very generous international rights.

I forget. Btw, I think that camera woman actress also played Berlin on Defiance. Type cast as a documentary making woman in a Sci-fi show? lol

Whole lot of new people to distrust. And Miller coming back -- hell yeah.

Solid intro to the next story arc. Glad they showed the inertial net effect.

Safety features not included. It's like they MacGyvered past the DHD.

Pay off was worth it

David Strathairn guest starring was pretty cool. Underrated actor.

holy fuck at that inertial quick stop visual, that was freaking awesome

I'm also legit shocked at how much they time skipped ahead (a bit over 6 months), don't remember if there is stuff in between in the books but that was pretty awesome. It does feel like a good spot for new show readers to jump in if they want.

if amazon does pick up the show next season would be insane if they just release all episodes at once.

I thought that maybe I had missed an episode somehow.

There was a time skip in the books as well, which makes sense. Just the trip alone to the ring takes months.

Yeah, the massive time jump was a little odd. Loved the completely instant deceleration scene, totally worth waiting for.
