"The Expanse" - New near-future sci-fi TV

"No, no more crime stories. I wanna know exactly what you know."
"Oh, so you wanna talk about the non-local quantum hologram, the phase-conjugate adaptive waves resonating in micro-tubules in the brain, which of course requires some closed-timeline curves and Lorentzian manifold, and - you catch up, I'll wait."
"So, a crime scene?"
"Crime scene."

I can't tell. Apparently the first season had 10 episodes, but the second season had 13 episodes. So who knows?

Wikipedia knows, apparently.

They weren't giving themselves time to think. They were in a high-stress situation and thought Holden (almost called him Shepard! 
) was out of his mind. Easy to forget in such situations that your hammer won't work in this instance when you've been happily banging away at things with hammers for almost your entire adult life.

i think it was another sun, the protomolecule showing Holden the ring can be a gateway to multiple places, all the holes that were shown, look to me like portals to other places.

Finally caught up after watching six episodes this week. Brilliant stuff. And I think I have a crush on Drummer.

I know! At the risk of being a book wanker I think that they've got it spot on, they've had to make massive changes to the books to keep the momentum with how they've structured the TV series. In this case I've broken my golden rule and declared that the book is not better.

So many particulars. So many questions.
For the benefit of DotCommunist there will be an episode today, and the final 2 episodes will be on next week.

Not sure if this has been posted yet but reddit has allowed this to take on a life of it's own:

The bartender featured in that video has his own youtube channel and posts, among other things, videos in belter creole.

Oh, it was Anna! Glad she's turned out to be useful at last.
And Holden's thing had a certain hommage to Blade Runner quality to it...

Anyone know what Ashford's up to? I kept thinking all that stuff about uniforms and not throwing offenders out of airlocks was merely a ploy to help manoeuvre his way into the Captain's position. But he's starting to seem genuine. Or maybe he's playing a longer game than that Melba/Clarissa who seemed single-mindedly intent on killing Holden, even in the middle of a major crisis. The guy playing Ashford is great, I'm just having trouble sussing out the character's motivations.

I think he might be the real deal. That last conversation he had before the unfortunate self sacrifice of whaterface. There was conviction, ego too but thats the character
spinning up the drum for everyones wounded also seems to fit this nation builder vibe

Masterly move. I was feeling quite moved with all the "ROTATE THE DRUM" stuff, and then that...
