      It's one of my favorite shows, but sadly in my opinion the first 3 episodes are doing a poor job of capturing your attention and are some of the weakest episodes of the entire show. If you're unsure watch at least until episode 4. It's gets only better from there and each season so far has been better than all previous seasons

      I really hated his death. It felt so cheap and tacked on at the end of the season, like the writers threw him in there just so they could have someone die. His death wasn’t a climax or anything, it just kinda happened. I guess maybe something like that happened in the books which I haven’t read, but there were probably ways to go about it.

    This is such a great show that when they were just airing season 3, and the news came out about it being cancelled and all the fan outcry was in the middle of saving the show and getting amazon to pick it up, I got so obsessed with the show that I had to have more and ended up reading the WHOLE book series, all 8 600 page books before season 4 was finally released on amazon... NO other show has had that effect on me. SUCH Ana amazing show and SUCH a great series of novels. I can’t fucking WAIT for the final 9th book to come out October 2021... CANT... FUCKING... WAIT!!!
    I really don’t know how they’re going to pull off the final arc of books 7-9 on the series. Those who’ve read the books know what I’m talking about.

    More expanse videos for sure. Definitely do videos on the books as well as the show. They follow the same story but go into much greater depth. As well as going much further into the story’s timeline as well!

    My ex was one of the people who previewed the whole first season and gave feedback. She said the first episode was so confusing nobody understood it and they cleaned it up. I think some of her comments were why they brought her back to watch the entire season.
    I've been waiting until I have time to binge Season 5. Glad it's still around and appreciate the recap!

    This was awesome. Informative and humorous. Had me laughing out loud a couple times. 🤪
