The protomolecule in the hands of Earth and Mars, has unleashed all manner of Hell on the system. In review, we’re reminded of the major thematic elements and core story points of The Expanse during the first two seasons. I’m glad I didn’t make my DVR sprint what has happened thus far on The Expanse – because as you know, a lot has transpired. While these are commonplace for you and me, lovers of episodic and intelligent television series, whose stories span entire seasons – I felt compelled to NOT skip past the review this time. We begin this third season with an overview, you know, the usual “Previously on The Expanse” package that precedes the latest episode. I’ll blog about these matters in another post, back to The Expanse! What’s Going On in The Expanse? But I digress… Losing Dark Matter hurt a lot! I’m sure you agree. At least one of my other SYFY favs will return for a third season and I can’t wait to see what happens on Van Helsing next year. (A lesson most recently given by Rian Johnson & The Last Jedi) Putting Luke Skywalker and Rey aside for a moment, the SYFY network had to budget for Krypton and Nightflyers, but the cancellation of Dark Matter still hurts. This may not be the time and place, but RIP Dark Matter! For every good choice, there is a bad, keeping our universe in balance.
They deserve the ratings and buzz that The Expanse has garnered along the way for having its back and keeping it part of their yearly lineup of great science fiction and fantasy shows. SYFY has fully endorsed and promoted The Expanse since before it first aired.
The Expanse has created a visual feast for the senses and the SYFY network deserves high praise for choosing this production. I’ve had many days when I’ve wished for a writing partner. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. Corey – which is a pen name for writing partners Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck.
The Expanse television show has been deftly adapted from The Expanse book series by James S.A. Over the past two seasons, we’ve watched The Expanse, well, expand. As the third season begins, The Expanse, an SYFY network original, continues to impress and amaze with its top-notch storytelling, acting, visual & practical effects, overall production design, and execution. The Expanse continues to be one of the best science fiction shows on any network or streaming service available today. Major Spoilers for S3:E1 of The Expanse past this point.
