You mention there being no timeline divergence, however there’s an easter egg for the alt history show For All Mankind in the S5 premiere when Amos is on Luna. The easter egg is a digital plaque that states “Explore Historical Jamestown base established 1976. If you take this at face value, it would mean The Expanse takes place in an alternate timeline where we had already colonized the moon by the late 20th century.

I assume that the divergence wasn't that big if it happened. Maybe a base was established in 1976 but it didn't go very far. Or the information is wrong, which is a possibility because someone it was 400 years ago, and I doubt someone today will care if Isaac Newton explained gravity in 1657 rather than 1687 (the real date).

Interesting detail: In book 6 there's a ship named the Mark Watney. This is a reference to The Martian, and the writers have said it could very well have taken place in the same universe. And the Martian canonically takes places around 2035, so that's a starting year for colonisation (because Watney technically colonised Mars by farming there). As their mission was the third to Mars, I assume ARES I or II (the first could have just been an orbital mission) landed on Mars around 2030. Since there's no way we're getting to Mars in just nine years, we can safely say the point of divergence is the year Leviathan Wakes was published, in 2011.

Good job, Pete Peppers. The recap was very welcome after having binged on the the first three seasons and much of the fourth, then many months later watched the fifth as it came out, week after long week. You try to provoke in your parting questions, discussion and judgments about the two forms of the story, and I answer you that each form is its own independent narrative. Consider, they're different narrative substances, book versus video, and are motivated and sustained by different economic and creative systems. They share many details, of course, but they're distinct enough one from the other to warrant creative and narrative independence.

I'm a Star Trek TNG fan so my feelings on this are muddled. This is by far the best SciFi series to date with shows like Battlestar Galactica and Firefly a close second. TNG tried to pay homage to the physics and science behind its tech by consulting NASA on a "what if we did have this tech..." basis but nothing addresses the issues of space the way this show does. Having said that, I did enjoy the fact that TNG would have upwards of 26 episodes a season and I wish The Expanse were similar. I realize this would be challenging as far as story writing, costs, etc. but the books are detailed and complex enough that even 18-20 episodes a season would have been doable. There was definitely room for an even greater level of character development. As for the timelines, I can live with the differences, and fast fowarding as no one wants a season of episodes that just covers returning from Ganymede to Earth (for example). Still, this is the absolutely best SciFi series I have ever seen.

I would say that it's mostly a function of how the books work not amazon's change in direction. Book 5 is really when you get to know a lot more about the expanse crew (in comparison to the way the show works) so it definitely takes its time. But it also is a moment where the protomolecule takes a back seat and we see the human story of how the gates have cascading effects. Book 6 is more fast-paced but similarly is working out the churn of the gates. The protomolecule is still lurking in the background just less present. The exploration and cascade really ramp up in Books 7,8 and (I assume but its not out yet) 9.

Its a smart way to write, gives the illusion of well thought out, calculated travel times, without the need for em.

It'll probably be the same thing. I think it's a little confusing because the authors chose to make the portal a ring instead of a sphere (which is the way portals through space should be). If it was a sphere, you could enter through any point on its surface and emerge from the surface a corresponding sphere inside the ring space. But now that it is a ring, we would have to imagine objects entering the ring in opposite directions emerging the same way into the ring space or that the ring space is not accessible from the back side of the ring.

I think the pacing of the stories of the show relative to the books are "close enough". I think this possibly gets to be more of an issue post book 6 with the often-lamented gap of multiple decades to allow... "stuff to happen" within the Laconia system. But I suspect that could be hand-waved away to some extent, should there be additional TV shows produced to play out that plot line. One difference in the timelines/plots are when and how Fred Johnson dies. Like other differences, it doesn't really impact the overall way the larger story proceeds. And of course, I think the biggest difference is the Drummer character (and now, Bull) vs. the books. I think this adaptation in the show is great change and introduces us to a really interesting character.

"Wow! 🤔 The opening story foundation reminds me of that sci-fi game with the Citadel thing, MASS EFFECT. Relays, new particle, old civilization. Very interesting similarities... then the due smiling like Zephra Cochran in Star Trek, who created warp drive. 🥶🥶🥶 The more I watch, the more it seem like lots of sci-fi show plots melded into one."

17:20 "thats a weapon left behind by the unknown aggressor". I think it's a bit different, I think it was a protomolecule gone rogue that wiped out the civilization, and I think the weapon that destroys the protomolecule was made by the ring builders to try to stop the protomolecule.

Great timeline, I think that the UN and Mars' political situations should've been mentioned more (Errinwright turning against Avasarala, Sorrento-Gillis' fall, the election between Avasarala and Gao and Gao's death. Lots of really cool stuff could've been mentioned!

I just started watching this show and I'm already bored to tears but my friend says it's important that I watch it so I'm just kinda tuning in and out. Even watching this I'm already bored but want the Cliff Notes.
