Miller and the Roci crew converging was such a huge moment for me and then BAM… Julie. Such a great episode!

[@dennistomsen5822]

A former Expanse reactor (whose name unfortunately escapes me now) was so hyped about finding Julie that he simply refused to believe that she was dead for a very long time and contrary to all evidence. So much so that for a while #JulieLives actually became a meme in his comment section 😁

[@arandomnamegoeshere]

I did enjoy it when we first saw this go down - it was almost as if there's a plot point feint before the real hit lands.

[@hoos3014]

Oh, hey, look who's here 😊

[@mattdrahos2662]

I hope you enjoy the speculation as much as I do. The Expanse is a great reactor watch, because nobody has any idea just how bonkers it is going to get:)

[@thomashiggins9320]

Wow. You really do enjoy watching other reactors. 😀 It's such a fun way to enjoy a show you love, all over again.

[@alto1MO]

Watching people new to The Expanse try to fit all the puzzle pieces together is always fun. So glad you guys are enjoying the show!

[@DarrellPursiful]

I won't comment on how accurate your interpretation of events is, but it was fascinating to watch the gears turn in your heads!

[@Hapsard]

The trick has to be that you can speculate, but don't commit to your suspicions ever, because they are very good at keeping the story up in the air ... I really love this show!

[@gilfista5178]

Yes brah🤙🏽I can watch um all day

[@RocketSurgn_]

@@Hapsard yet generally in a very consistent way. Even when they overturn expectations or just go a different route than seemed likely, it always still lines up with other events/decisions/etc. even if there wasn’t enough info to have predicted, the outcome makes sense once you know more of the characters and motivations etc.

[@Sawyer1982OAC]

The prelude is over

[@addickland5656]

Fun fact to display how true to science this show is, the creators explained how ships that would experience high G´s, such as military vessels like the roci, would need the pilot to be able to literally do everything with only using his voice or moving the tips of his fingers, since moving your hands or arms in double digit G´s is what one might call unpleasant, hence why the essential controls are that small and close together near where his hand would normally rest. It´s really that level of attention to detail that makes this show feel so special.

[@scope40k]

As far as I know, its pretty close to what engineers do in real fighter jets: it takes a few millimeters pitch of pilot's stick to make a full barrel roll.

[@moleman1976]

"This show is so good!" I love hearing you say that this early in - there are SO MANY twists and turns coming, and SO MANY AWESOME characters you haven't yet met! This is one of my all-time favorite series, with great writing, great acting, great effects (including some of the most realistic and stunning space fights), and amazing characters! I'm looking forward to seeing you along this ride!

[@RocketSurgn_]

It honestly keeps getting better for a while! I think the argument can even be made that every season is better than the last, though my favorite seasons tend to waver as I rewatch. But I think there’s pretty universal consensus that Season 1 is one of the lesser seasons so as incredible as it was, the standards are high. Season… 3 and 5 seem to be pretty broad favorites? Really though, they are all so good.

[@tgszw]

I enjoyed your personal theory breakdown during the outro. Know one thing, it's x10 crazier and more 'delicious' than you've imagined

[@scottwatrous]

And yet in a lot of ways fairly straightforward. In a good way.

[@neutchain7838]

A little tip for the future...don't look at the OPA as a cohesive entity like Mars or Earth. Think of it like different tribes/factions with the same origin and similar grievances. There is always an effort for unification by a few individuals ( like Dawes ) but it's not as easy.

[@RocketSurgn_]

Much like a lot of movements and broad groups borne of a shared oppression/having been under essentially colonial rule for generations. A hugely complicated mix of dependence, resentment, indifference, and many different people having many different ideas of how to deal with it. Cynically working within/around the system skimming off bribes/theft/etc, direct opposition, quasi political bodies trying to have a legitimate role in broader politics and trying to be moderate/more peaceful… and those that want direct confrontation and violence.

[@theshadowling1]

Best way to think of them is like the IRA, but less unified and cohesive

[@Yesquire0]

Inexplicably weird and deadly highly infectious shiny blue something is loose on Eros. What could possibly be worse than that? The Expanse: "Hold my beer".

[@emwungarand]

Julie didn't attack the Canterbury. Go back and watch the first five minutes of the pilot episode. She was locked inside the storage locker when they fired the torpedoes.

[@aldocassola]

"Where the f*ck do we go from here!!" Oh boy, are we gonna have fun finding out....

[@PsychoMuffinSDM]

Actually, that thing Alex was using that you thought is a volume nob, is a 3D navigation device from a company called 3DConnexion. They make a joy-stick type device, that accurately tracks how much you tilt it, either side to side or back and forth (that is, pitch or roll), and how much you twist it (yaw), it also tracks how much you push and pull it lineally, either side to side, back or forth, or up or down. In other words, it tracks in 6 degrees of freedom. I actually use that exact device to do 3D modeling in SketchUp. Because of the 6 DoF, it actually makes perfect sense to use as a tool for maneuvering a ship, as you would want to control it on all of those vectors.

[@RocketSurgn_]

Also, he’s using it for the thrusters/fairly fine adjustments there so it makes sense to be a different form factor than some bigger more typical joystick. In some other scenes, when maneuvering in combat (though maybe also just later season set changes?) they use more typical joysticks (but 2 of them to have the full 6 deferred of freedom control).

[@AugustEverywhere]

More Expanse always makes me happy and more Nerdy & Clarus makes me even happier.

[@gilfista5178]

Nailed it 🤙🏽

[@fundi_mike]

lol so funny when you said "oh that's just dialogue" - expanse does not have "fill". Every second, every word is important - the full context is just not revealed yet

[@surfeit5910]

Oh man, it's great seeing you two come soooooo close to predicting these episodes and plot, yet not know it. And also miss by a mile all at the same time.

[@scambammer6102]

and yet the real answer seems so obvious once they reveal it

[@snarflcat6187]

The next two are ONE double-episode. Watch them together.

[@Azure1964]

Nerdy:" This is the worst case scenario!" Us: LOL

[@SciFiCatGuy]

Just in case you are unaware, the end of season one is *not* the end of book one. The book one story arch ends in season 2 episodes 4 & 5, which absolutely should be watched together.

[@richb313]

You are asking all the right questions your observations will be rewarded.

Somebody already probably told you but just in case, there is another reactor, funnylilgals, who is a big Expanse fan and that is apparently following your Expanse reactions with great care. She talked about you in her latest vids, it was funny. :)

[@madux42]

There is no "dialogue for dialogue's sake" in this show. Always remember that. You just don't know (yet) why this dialogue is there. Every scene and every line is there for a reason, but it may take some episode, or even seasons, to find out the meaning. That's also why you should never talk over dialogue, btw. ;)

"This is the worst case scenario" ooooh, you have NOOOO IDEA!!! 😲😲😲

[@fischers_of_men]

These are the kinds of reactions I enjoy from you guys! Thoughtful, productive conversation, criticism and theorizing.

[@cameronvincent3122]

I think the Tac Team is a contracted team. A team from Earth wouldn't make it in time, so it had to be people that lived on Eros.

[@RocketSurgn_]

Yyyyeah…. I mean in this world of so much influence Earth and Mars exert on the belt, and it essentially being a Cold War with the Belt caught in between, I’d think they would both have at least some real covert operations folks embedded in/near Eros. So I’ve always been… underwhelmed at the “black ops team”… but I mostly wish Errinright didn’t call them a “black ops” team vs maybe “local assets” or something. They clearly aren’t professionals on a great power special operations team level!

[@cameronvincent3122]

@@RocketSurgn_ I can't recall how long the cold war is, though. If it's been a long time then the embedded teams are still going to basically be belters. Unless they're training and shipping a new team out every decade on the off chance something happens in Eros of all place. Seems unlikely to me.

[@RocketSurgn_]

@@cameronvincent3122 Things like that have always been accomplished (in part) with “diplomatic” posts, or corporate positions that rotate in from away. There are plenty of earthcorp interests, and probably plenty among the clearly Earth “influenced” station administration to have at least a handler or 2 there to manage. But I don’t disagree that for the actual assassination attempt it makes sense to be belters. Mostly just a quibble at calling them a black ops team being too grand of a term, Hah.

[@cameronvincent3122]

@@RocketSurgn_ Very possible that whoever is there to manage the "black ops" team is pocketing the govt. fund and hiring local hitmen. We get a pretty clear view from Miller's boss on Ceres that loyalty in the belt doesn't mean much.

[@John_259]

There is a crossover from The Expanse to The Last of Us. An actor who played an Expanse character who you haven't met yet also played a FEDRA officer in episode seven of The Last of Us.

[@swhaw]

I don't think this counts as a spoiler but I think it is important to go in with the mindset that the end to season 1 isn't the end of the first book, it will be an ending for season 1 but when you reach the end of the first book because it reaches into season 2 YOU'LL KNOW. I just won't say when.

[@RocketSurgn_]

Agreed this can help understand the flow of the show. Both season 2 and 3 have around mid season break points that line up (more or less) with book endings and act more like a usual season end would. It works very well, though.

[@theshadowling1]

It's what makes the end of season 2, in my mind, less fun than the book version of the same moments (Avasarala and our as-yet unrevealed martian) being in a far worse position than they are in the book, as for the show it's a season finale, while in the book, it's a mid-book bit of showing off for just how clever Avasarala is.

[@MhailAzure1]

You think you know, but it will be so fun to watch you find out. Oh boy, does it get crazy. This ain't nothing

[@michaelgonzalez6295]

Remember fans like me and how we wanted you to have patience till Episode 4 - CQB? That was the first little hill in the rollercoaster that is The Expanse. Well, buckle up! Episodes 5,6,7 was going up the high rollercoaster ramp. From the moment Miller saves the crew, the show goes into extreme mode! It is some of the most entertaining television ever and a non-stop rollercoaster (IMHO) until the end of Season 3. WHEE!

[@arandomnamegoeshere]

....and we're just getting started.

[@17thknight]

Yup, and then you go back to the roller coaster in season 4 until the finale and then wheeeeeeeeee

[@PHDiaz-vv7yo]

Then there’s lurching and vomiting and Wheee!!! Through S5-6. And then books 7 to 9 and that beautiful epilogue 🍻

[@AustinStarDust]

Book 1 is covered in the first season and the first few episodes of season 2. So while the season finale is pretty good, it won't answer everything covered in the first book. It is cool how it works out because the show shifts fundamentally after the end of Book 1 in the middle of season 2. Every scene in the episodes are not wasted or are filler scenes. Scenes like those with Chrisjen Avasarala on Earth may seem like charity scenes for the character, but they are not. For example, there was a scene from the last episode (or the one before) where Errinwright told Avasarala that Earth has a spy on Tycho Station. That was the guy with the bionic eye (or perhaps it a smart contact lens.)

[@grafffuller3265]

Yes. Great reveal. Love your theory. It will become KNOWN...just keep watching (hopefully TWO episodes a week in the NEAR future). BTW, keep making theories. Some/most may not be correct, BUT when you are at the point...you will see your success/failure, but it will also show you the EXPANSE of the vision by the creators and writers. So good. The best Science Fiction show ever made...in my opinion. Great characters, great cast, great writing, great visual effects...the best. I love the two of you thinking out the show and the future episode possibilities. Eros. What is the future for Eros? Very bleak. Be careful for what you wish for. So excited for future reactions. This the best case scenario.

[@invaderliz]

Side head cannon: timeline split- everyone but the mormons die. The Expanse is actually a prequel to Battlestar. In a previous episode there’s a poster for the musical the Book of Mormon on the wall in Ceres. Like it’s still running.

[@jessc3007]

Re: the destruction of the Anubis and the torpedoes the ship uses - some of their torpedoes have nuclear warheads (not all of them). So they probably vaporized the ship.

[@steriopticon2687]

"It's SO bad." Wait for it...

[@fellknight]

Love love love the reactions! All I have to suggest in a non-spoiler way is that episodes 9 and 10 were released together as a season finale, and they really work best as one double-length episode. Your call, but if you can conclude the season in the next episode, you'll love it

[@RocketSurgn_]

Agreed. Even if they don’t post them together, though that would be great, it works best planning to watch them together since they really are basically pt1/pt2 episodes. The same thing happens a few times through the show, not always at season end. Usually people try to point out in advance when upcoming episodes are paired up. Around midway season 2 is another pair of episodes.

[@dahak2358]

Without getting into any spoiler areas, just as a general information (which should be visible in the series already, and was accessible in the book by this point): OPA is not an unified organization with singular governing authority. Just like Belters in general, it's more a haggle of independent groups with the same primary goal ("Freedom/power to the Belt"), led by individuals that can have sometimes significantly different visions of what it specifically means and how to achieve it. For example, of those you have already seen, Fred Johnson's faction is not the same as Anderson Dawes' group, despite both being OPA.

[@heatherc.7706]

I'm really impressed by yall's deductive reasoning skills. Not spoiling whether you're right about anything or not, but you are definitely analyzing the show from the right angle. Regarding how fucked Eros is... the combination of poverty, high population density, lack of competent government, and enclosed environment make it possibly the most vulnerable place in the Solar System to an infectious disease outbreak. You are right to be worried.

[@Timmayytoo]

I really appreciate that both of you pay attention and follow the story well - it can be frustrating watching reactors who miss important details (for whatever reason) and then they spend the rest of the video asking questions that they were given the answer to but they missed it. Nerdy... you've mentioned "network television" in several reactions and I think it's important to note that A) the phrase "network television" historically doesn't refer to Cable TV networks (but I understand the point you're making), and B) Syfy only paid for cable broadcast rights to the show in the USA and had basically no input into its content - the show was made by Alcon Entertainment and Sony Television. Nothing in the show is throw-away just to fill time - you'll figure that out as you watch more of the show - but they might be making decisions about the timing of certain scenes in order to fit the contractually obligated time-limit. I'll be curious if you feel that way in a few episodes.

[@shawnloging8649]

Fun Fact: “Star Wars Guns” also use ammo. AND “batteries.” That’s what Lando was harvesting at Cloud City, the gases that Imperial Navy Carbine Blasters use the energy in their “batteries “ to turn into highly charged plasma. They run out of gas (and battery) and need to reload.

[@Mansplainer2099-jy8ps]

That's not ammo though, a raygun is more like a flashlight and a Star Wars blaster is more like a flamethrower with a battery-powered sparkplug.

[@NewAeonWarlord]

I think one important thing to realise with The Expanse is, that none of the big factions are a monolithic block with everyone working for the exact same thing. Earth is governed by the UN but has quite a few people in powerful position that might have varying objectives, similar for Mars. As for the Belt: only part of Belters support the OPA and the OPA itself is made up of a bunch of different factions that aren't lead by a single person. Fred Johnson is the leader of one OPA faction so to say, Anderson Dawes for example is another OPA leader.

The Expanse was originally written to be an RPG. Right now there is a kickstarter for a comic book written to continue the story set between books 6 and 7, and it's raked in millions of dollars. The word is it was to demo another story to build out the franchise, because both Apple and HBO are interesting in continuing it, but not books 7-9.

The death of Avarsarela's friend which is being ruled as suicide is actually a VERY important plot point and will have consequences down the line.
