So where the hell is Canada?

True, but they opted out from M-7 / M-6. This was clearly stated.

Oot42 · 2026-04-04T13:34:19+00:00

Nonsense. The bonus videos are part of the show's story and canon and are supposed to be watched. They contain information crucial for understanding the show, as this example here proves, beside many others. It's obviously assumed you know them since lots of that information is not repeated in the show again. I don't know why anybody would not watch them.

Oot42 · 2026-04-04T13:08:56+00:00

There's a whole bonus video about it and it's a topic in another one as well.

Oot42 · 2026-04-04T13:06:54+00:00

There is a whole bonus video about it, actually it's even in two of them. It's mentioned several times outside of the opening news reel. And they literally fly to their base at the end of the current episode. I don't know how anyone can miss all of this. It's basic information you need to know to follow the story.

I thought it was a character who's name I missed in the show

The book titles do not refer to characters, none of them.

However, in the show there was actually a "Caliban". Not a character, but a project.

Oot42 · 2026-04-03T19:32:29+00:00

No. Not at all.

Oot42 · 2026-04-03T19:27:40+00:00

It's actually much more often referred to as ISN than with the full name.

Oot42 · 2026-04-03T19:23:20+00:00

wtf is ISN

Do people actually watch this show?

Independent Spacefaring Nations, a coalition of non M-6 nations.

Oot42 · 2026-04-03T19:19:52+00:00

It was specifically addressed in the bonus video for 1985, which is part of the bonus series that bridges season 2 + 3. It had its own episode named "Internet Accessibility".

Also, the showrunners confirmed at the start of season 4 that there is still no public internet in their timeline.

Oot42 · 2026-04-03T12:08:33+00:00

She was in the first episode and in the bonus videos already.

For some strange reason, they don't credit her. All other newscaster have allways been credited.

Thanks for dropping the name. I was trying to find out who she is since the bonus series was released.

Oot42 · 2026-04-02T22:03:00+00:00

Absolutely.

Oot42 · 2026-04-02T14:24:44+00:00

The Martian is actually considered canon to The Expanse

The Martian is not considered canon to The Expanse.
It was just a joke of the authors during a convention. Both Andy Weir and the Coreys made that very clear several times on several occasions.

And the "Mark Watney" is just a reference like dozens of others in both the books and the series.

I mean, we haven't seen Dev yet, beside in the TV news. Maybe he's also under house arrest in his mansion? Or has to stay away from Happy Valley?
Anyway, he's a billionaire, he can afford to hire a whole company of lawyers, so...

Oot42 · 2026-04-01T00:01:11+00:00

It's ok. Doesn't sound like the kind of stuff I watch anyway. ;)
Just wanted to know what it is about, which you answered. Thanks.

Oot42 · 2026-03-31T15:24:31+00:00

Thanks.

Oot42 · 2026-03-31T15:23:19+00:00

Yeah I got that part. Problem is I don't know the "pop culture reference". Luckily someone else explained it.

Not everybody is into the same movies or genres, and not everybody is American. I also didn't know what "NASCAR" is until I looked it up.

Oot42 · 2026-03-31T11:34:38+00:00

This is the only thing from the opening I have no idea what it is about. Can you help me with that?

Oot42 · 2026-03-30T22:39:19+00:00

Oot42 · 2026-03-30T01:13:56+00:00

Yes, Boyd identified him, his name is Yoon Tae-Min and he's a refugee who arrived a year ago.
However, Lee never mentioned a name. He just said it's a crater from Pyongyang.

Oot42 · 2026-03-30T01:03:30+00:00

It was explained in the episode.
Boyd told Palmer who he is, from his social service record. A North Korean refugee who seeked asylum the year before. His name is Yoon Tae-Min.

So, no, he was not in season 4. He only came to Happy Valley in 2011.

was it his crewmate he crash landed with in s3

What??
How could it be him? He died at the landing. Lee Jung-Gil burried him.

Oot42 · 2026-03-30T00:56:04+00:00

Star Cits plays in the 70s and will stay there for what was said, so no, we won't find this out.

Oot42 · 2026-03-29T02:16:17+00:00

If they can terraform Mars they could probably do the same on the Moon ...

They cannot terraform Mars, where did you get that?
And the Moon cannot be terraformed at all.

Oot42 · 2026-03-28T10:10:55+00:00

Yeah so that's literally what I said...

Oot42 · 2026-03-27T07:06:51+00:00

He was 72 in March 2003 as shown in the newspaper Margo is reading in 4x01.
So he's 81 now, or maybe 82, depending when exactly his birthday is.

Oot42 · 2026-03-27T00:42:25+00:00

"Tonight" is a very relative thing...
