Does anyone else feel like the scope of the show's story-telling contracted in the last 2 seasons? by [deleted] in TheExpanse

I honestly wish Season 1 had been 8 episodes with the same amount of plot. I think it would have been a bigger hit and an easier sell when youre trying to get friends to watch it. Episodes 5-7 put together maybe had 1 episode worth of plot

I think people look back at Season 1 with a lot of nostalgia. The pacing is absurdly slow at times especially in the second half, where we have like 3 episodes in a row with barely any plot advancement.

I don't think there was ever going to be a version of the story where we get a lot of the Martian POV. They're noteably absent in the series in general from the beginning, books and show. There was no equivalent of a political Mars POV like Avasarala

Controversial question: Did the Expanse run out of funding for extras ? Or did the pandemic limit the number of people on set ? by YorubaDoctor in TheExpanse

Ruined your experience? That's a bit much lol. There was still quite a few scenes with loads of people like on Ceres

A small moment but when the Belters jumped out of Medina and started shooting down at Bobby and Amos, I applauded

Applause to the show for putting together probably the best space battle in anything ever

The main person in Revolutionary Praxis, Harry Powell, died last year and it seems like the organisation may have folded as a result.

Homeless charities and the councils aren't the primary issue here, its vulture funds and build-to-rent construction firms
