The Expanse is an American science fiction television series on Syfy, developed by Mark Fergus and Hawk Ostby, based on the series of novels by Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck (writing under the pseudonym James S. A. Corey). Set in a future where humanity has colonized the Solar System, it follows United Nations executive Chrisjen Avasarala (Shohreh Aghdashloo), police detective Josephus Miller (Thomas Jane), and ship's officer Jim Holden (Steven Strait) and his crew as they unravel a conspiracy that threatens peace in the system and the survival of humanity. It also deals with the fractious relationship between Earth, Mars and the Outer Planets Alliance (OPA). The OPA is an organization that fights for the interests of inhabitants of the (Asteroid) Belt. Unrecognized as a governing body, the OPA is often accused of outlaw tactics.
The series premiered on demand on November 23, 2015, and on Syfy on December 14, 2015. A 13-episode second season premiered on February 1, 2017. In March 2017, Syfy renewed The Expanse for a 13-episode third season to air in 2018. The series received positive reviews from critics, who highlighted its beautiful visuals, well-developed characters, and thrilling political narrative. It has received a Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation as well as a Saturn Award nomination.

[@dodoggy4191]

Goddamn this the best sci-fi show since Battle star galactica.

[@fcuk_x]

You mean Babylon 5?... ;)

[@Nekorbmi]

scifi has a bad habit of ending great shows...cough...cough farscape...so i was waiting for this to get canx and wouldnt get pissed when it did. so glad amazon picked it up

[@pagerbeekincali]

The Expanse is absolutely the best #1 Sci-fi show in history in my opinion. It's Game of Thrones in space. I love this powerful awesome cast. I've never seen a show were all the actors are at the top of there game. I love Shohreh Aghdashloo, she is my favorite character, she is so awesome. This show is going to make history, believe me. If you have not seen this, just watch the very first episode. After you will be hooked. Thanks a bunch to Amazon for taken over from Sci-fi channel.

[@dolnick7]

For me, it took maybe 4 or 5 episodes to get hooked. The buzz kept me going through the beginning where there were so many different threads to connect. But the best sci-fi show I've seen, period.

[@gillianrosheuvel9946]

Dominique's eyeroll in response to Wes' comment about Naomi's betrayal is PER. FECT.

[@SciaticaDrums]

Going through watching these events now, I'm on my 5th viewing of the series right now. Amazing cast, amazing writing, amazing series. I'm thoroughly addicted.

[@CH-sx8bm]

Love Shoreh's energy. I thought it was so cute when the moderator was winding down and she asked first for one more question and then upped it to two. She wanted every fan to get a chance.

[@tompohl5962]

One of the best Sci-fi shows ever.

[@jefforceone]

If it wasn’t for Frankie Adams I probably wouldn’t even watch the show beautiful

[@kenillustration3855]

You and your editor did a great job :) Nice work :) Thanks for the credit.

[@smokeyovertheline6394]

Love this show. Especially excited to see what happens when Chrisjen and Bobbie team up.

[@antr7493]

great upload as always.t hanks so much. i would never see these if it wasn't for you

[@davidbuelow2248]

That's very nice of you to say, thank you. I coordinated the content sharing on this project so that multiple recordings could be spliced into one better one, and it's nice when people take notice and appreciate our hard work. I'm a huge fan of this show as well, so I'm glad that other fans will be able to watch this going forward...

[@redviewstudio]

I love this show I hope they last all for season 9 and beyond. with 2 movies.

[@antr7493]

the host of the panel are really good. I would take them over Chris Hardwick any day of the week.

[@a.r.l.4769]

Thank You very much for this!!!

[@AdamMethos]

Great work!

[@ConventionJunkies]

Thank you, It wouldn't have been possible without your help!

[@indymagoo]

Frankie Adams looks fantastic in this!

[@user-pc3hl2wt1n]

続編を是非　作って欲しい🥰

[@mphelps1013]

I'm here from a comment left on the Tested.com discussion page. Looking forward...

[@davidbuelow2248]

I'm really curious what comment you saw. I tried finding it with no luck. Can you reply with a link to it? I coordinated the content sharing on this project so that multiple recordings could be spliced into one better one. Thanks...

[@ChuckKahn]

Yay! My camera @12:05 (only without my crappy audio)

[@ChuckKahn]

I also shared stills from my camera of the panel @ goo.gl/photos/6zvecJJzgx6wY9PF9

[@davidbuelow2248]

You have some really nice ones there. Some perfect moments of people laughing, etc. Thanks for showing me those. The one we have of that girl bent backwards laughing is hard to top, but you got some really nice ones too. Thanks again for allowing this to happen. I'm actually a huge fan of the show, so I did it for myself and all the fans. Thanks again!

I Want "Summer Glau" from the series firefly as Clarissa Mao in season 4/5

[@hydradbz456]

Well Mao and Glau rhyme so maybe, LOL

[@laalki80]

21:13 Sociopath with Dexter shirt activates! :D

[@hydradbz456]

If you're talking about Wes, I just have one thing to say: He IS that guy

[@vimalcurio]

These people don't act lol that's their natural state

[@Sintol115]

а чего качок дохдым кажется? девка и то мощнее

[@voip001]

Great sci-fi... Great casting all except Naomi (Dominique Tipper) who is horrible match for that role for many reasons. You simply can't make a British pop singer an engineer. Geordi Laforge (black-blind from ST:TNG) was 100x more believable.

[@FallaciesDetective]

I love her in this role, she is fit and credibly tough, but also sweet I think - maybe you think too much about her being a singer 😌

[@voip001]

@@FallaciesDetective ;Hi, I really really like your username.

[@kimgedits]

voip001 She is an great actress she is really different from her character is not like it’s her first acting on a tv show.

[@donkeydarko77]

That's just your personal bias. Steven Strait is a musician as well, but for you it's fine that he plays a ship Captain? Sounds like you are either being sexist, prejudiced or both.

[@vimalcurio]

@@voip001 you're wrong
