WARNING: Adult words.
“WARNING: Adult words.”
I had to stop watching because of the adult words. Every other word was a curse word. I am a big scifi fan.
Cool. Thanks for the heads up.
I especially liked seasons 1 thru 3. Season 4 seemed a bit slow. I heard good things about season 5.
You’re right. Sets, special effects, and scenes are great. They try to portray space travel, with essentially our level of technology +100 years, in a realistic manner. What makes this show, what makes any Sci-Fi show, are great characters.
The Expanse might not be perfect, but it’s arguably the best science fiction TV series I’ve seen. I’ll live with the occasional over-the-top swearing.
YESSS!!! THANKS for sharing.
(And in a couple of earlier episodes, adult actions, too...)
Why do they have to do that? Great story, great effects, great acting... Adult stuff not needed.
One of the great pleasures of raising my older son was watching Star Trek Next Gen together. Didn’t have to worry about stuff like that.
But today? Whatever the latest Star Trek is, they lost me when the two gay characters got too friendly. Stupid - No need for that story element. Plays no part, except to pander to LGBTWXYZ crowd.
Thanks for the warning - I skip many shows for this.
I do have a comment on the label “adult language” etc, I understand what
they are getting at. But it’s anything but adult. Very immature imo.
its good effects
storyline, ehhh
really tired of the belters being the new blacks though
gets very tiring
I heard they got rid of the actor who plays the pilot though. He got MeToo’s without any evidence. I won’t watch a season that doesn’t have him in it.
I’m re-watching all of season 4 right now.
Wish they’d have released the whole season like they did the other four.
Season 6 will be it’s final season.
Not to horn in on your thread, but I’m going to horn in on your thread and put in a recommendation for The Queen’s Gambit, a 7 part series on Netflix. I thought it was really good, compelling, nostalgic, and very loosely based on a true story. The music was good and they did a pretty good job of capturing 50s-60s “look”.
Full season?
When I checked last evening, they only had 3 episodes online.
AP is a bad about adding new episodes over weeks. Netflix usually has all episodes up at the same time.
AP is also bad about not having all seasons of some older TV shows. Or requiring additional subscriptions for later seasons.
Watched the first episode while eating lunch this afternoon. A great as usual.
Love this along with ST Discovery and the Mandelorian. All great shows. Now just need the Walking Dead to return.
One thing I laughed about was the UN Leader’s voice. I remember the first time I heard her on a later season of 24 - Muslim family hiding in US. Jack Bauer interrogating her.
Every time I hear her gravel voice I’m thinking “Lady, put down the smokes already”. Speaking of language - every episode she’s in in the previous Expanse seasons she curses F-bombs like Hitlery Clinton.
