Every command decision Ashford made was spot on.
His only crime was circumstance.
I respect that.
I respect the writing talent/genius it takes in multiple people to make that appear onscreen.

I will say they seriously compressed the second half of book 3 into the last two episodes. So I think we missed a lot of Clarissa's growth and development. Could be. I definitely intend to read the books at some point, but since I waited so far I'd rather see the show to the end first. Also, Clarissa is too...hot...for the role. I always had the impression she was painfully thin, borderline anorexic. Which helped take people off-guard when she used her implants to boost her combat skills.

Which helped take people off-guard when she used her implants to boost her combat skills. Yeah, that's the kind of thing I'd rather avoid by not reading the books for now. As for her, honestly, I rolled my eyes quite a few times when she was on screen. The actress isn't a bad actress, and the character isn't really a bad character per-se, but her backstory simply failed to interest me. Yes, she has daddy issues, and I don't really care. I felt similarly about Anna (the "Reverend Doctor") for awhile, I didn't have much patience for the designated bleeding heart and moral compass, but towards the end she became a lot more interesting. Well, I've had that problem with pretty much the entire cast, save Bobbie. And then only because she's such a distinctive-looking character it would be nigh-impossible to properly cast her. I must admit that after reading the book, I wondered if Jules Pierre Mao's goldfish was going to turn up next for revenge

Sad the season has ended and now have to wait again for next one.
Season finale was great.

Last two episodes definitely felt rushed though. They must have known early Syfy wasn't renewing them.

I'm still looking forward to getting into this, especially after hearing it had distinctly Mass Effect-ish stuff in it. Same with B5 which is currently taking up my time.

Ok, watched season 3 now. IMO (and without having read the books), the fantastic quality of the first two seasons keeps up for the most part. Very interesting developments there and IMO at least for now, they keep the whole issue of the proto-molecule just far enough out there to hold the credibility of the show (i.e. it's good we don't know a lot about how it "does" things). The only really shitty moment in the season was this: Anna's speech at the funeral of the suicidal lieutenant was really really bad. It must have been a combination of a not so good script and a really bad performance from the actress. And since that was supposed to be the moment that sells me on her talking skills, I was sorely disappointed. It was a key scene for both the character and the plot and it just didn't work at all IMO. But apart from that one scene there wasn't really anything bad in it and on the other hand there was so much good: -The entire first half with the war was tense beyond belief, I sat through 7 episodes without pause . - When the slingshot racer hits the ring. Holy shit, I figured something weird would happen but I didn't expect a splatter fest. - Loved all the weirdness going on in the bubble. The speed limit defense was a really cool concept. - Ashford is a great new character. So yea, overall, great stuff. I even liked the ending. I do think it could have pulled through as a series ending actually. There are definitely shows that ended worse, so in retrospect, I am a bit surprised people put up that much of a fight to keep it going, I was really expecting a total cliffhanger. Don't get me wrong, I am super glad that amazon took over and makes at the very least a season 4. This is my current absolute favorite when it comes to TV shows and tied for number one of my overall favorite scifi shows. I signed the petition and everything. Just saying, if they had canceled it for good, I'd have been ok with that ending. But of course, I am as happy as the next guy that we'll get more and I am just looking forward to where they'll take it from here.

Yeah that and The "final" part where she talks to the camera with the press chick was kinda bad too. I didn't buy it. Sure glad the thing is still alive. Not sure if it returns next year though? I love Sci fy shows and we don't really have many these days.

True, it wasn't good either but at least that part only happened sorta in the background while a pretty awesome scene with Alex, Amos and Bobby was going on, which I could focus on insteaad.

Anna was the only bad part about season 3. That's the same chick who used to be in TWD if I remember correctly? Yeah, I mean she as an actress is alright, but I don't super like her character in this series. Haven't read the books not sure if she's supposed to be like that or anything.

I'm sorry I'm not following the plot, but caught a bit of the show and I have to say that this lady www.imdb.com/name/nm0013037/?ref_=tt_cl_t5 has got one of the coolest voices I've ever heard. I keep seeing her in shows but I can never remember her name...or how to spell or pronounce it but I enjoy hearing her speak, same with Kate Mulgrew and Angie Harmon.

She's so distinctive, really fits the character in the Expanse, although, I have to say I haven't read any of the books yet since I don't want to spoiler myself - it would be easy to catch up and pass the show... and I don't want to do that. Hmm, you never played Mass Effect 2?

Hmm, you never played Mass Effect 2? Yeah she did Admiral Shala'Raan, Tali's "aunt" in ME2 (if memory serves and I'm not fucking up the names). That's the first thing you notice when you hear her: "I remember that voice..." It's like Courtney Taylor who did Jack, a very distinctive and interesting voice. I reckon the books and the show to a point are totally different things (experience by reading GoT books), and again from experience, I'd recommend finishing the show before reading any book.

Hmm, you never played Mass Effect 2? No, I haven't played Mass Effect 2, I've seen her in a lot of shows but I can never remember her name. I just know I really like hearing her talk and that she's a really good actress. They were watching The Expanse over here and she came on, and for me it was like "YES! It's her!...crap, now what's her name? I'll know it when I see it, but to remember how to spell it, I can't. I don't even think I've heard how it's pronounced. The only thing I remember is the 'loo' at the end of her last name, but to try and explain that to people when talking about actors/actresses you like watching. I usually end up saying "I don't know her name, but it ends with 'loo!" and then the person I'm talking to gives me that "Yeah...right!" look.
