The Expanse, people keeps recommending it and I kept ignoring it thinking it was the Extant. I hope it gets picked up again.

Just finished the last season of For All Mankind yesterday and it can be seen as a sort of prequel to The Expanse.

Yeah, by Season 4 of FAM I was definitely thinking the same thing.

But also, very, very good show in its own right.

The actor who played Alex Kamal was fired for being a creep I think, so I doubt it'll come back. But there are more books to enjoy on wich the series ist bases.

They killed off the character and carried on without him.

[–] zaphod@feddit.de 7 points 8 months ago (1 children)

They made a season without him. For the last three books they could just recast everyone, they're set 30 years after what was covered by the show.

[–] gmtom@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

Well they killed off Alex in the TV version. And he honestly doesn't have a particular big role in the final arc. So they could just give his little arc with his family to someone else.

This for sure.

I kept putting it off, then watched it all in one go when I finally managed to get through the 1 and 2nd episodes i think.
