[@FPRobber]

It's one of my favorite shows, but sadly in my opinion the first 3 episodes are doing a poor job of capturing your attention and are some of the weakest episodes of the entire show. If you're unsure watch at least until episode 4. It's gets only better from there and each season so far has been better than all previous seasons

Arguably, it was really a gift. But everyone who knows for sure is either dead or a suspect.

it is not salvage under maritim law (which aplais to space) since it was boarded whit a martian navy oficer and incomenden to holden. Besise salvage do not give the salvage crew the properti of the ship yst rigt to compensation

[@Old_Man_Fire]

Rocinante was the name of Don Quixote's horse. Holden was calling himself out for his habit of tilting at windmills.

[@TheSpearkan]

Not only that, but the first episode is named "Dulcinea" after Don Quixote's so-called princess

[@tracymetherell8744]

It was his favorite book as a child. His mom said they brought him up to be a knight and then gave him a war he could not win (protecting their farm). The lifeboat they took off of the Canterbury to check out the distress call was called the “Knight”

[@syntaxusdogmata3333]

I came for the space, politics, action, drama, and ancient alien mysteries, but I stayed for the lasagna.

Way better than in the books. He’s such an ass in the books

[@user-md3wm7vu1f]

the actor did an excellent job too

[@jamesrandall9489]

I really hated his death. It felt so cheap and tacked on at the end of the season, like the writers threw him in there just so they could have someone die. His death wasn’t a climax or anything, it just kinda happened. I guess maybe something like that happened in the books which I haven’t read, but there were probably ways to go about it.

[@rutwickgangurde3247]

I swear, I had a tear.

I need to check those out, I've been meaning to for a while

[@RightWingDestroyer666]

I was never into reading before, but after watching the Expanse and hearing it's based on a book series I had to check it out. I ended up reading the whole series in a couple of weeks, it's that good.

[@fejic]

You're the GOAT. I was just gonna start watching the 5th season and had a hard time remembering what happened. This is perfect timing

[@hotbeefo]

Thanks for this, I had forgotten half of the story.

[@krystofdayne]

What? I didn't know Season 5 was coming 😲 I'm so excited, I'm currently listening to Book 3, this series is amazing, and I honestly just started it because of Alt Shift X. That was a great recommendation 🤩

In Season 4 there’s a shot of the Rocinante orbiting Earth over North America. You can tell by the lack of city night lights that Florida through much of Louisiana is basically underwater, so they got that right!

I’m so glad you are staring to cover this show! It deserves so much more notice than it gets. Your coverage gives it a gravitas that will help it get even more viewers. .

[@plexus]

This is such a great show that when they were just airing season 3, and the news came out about it being cancelled and all the fan outcry was in the middle of saving the show and getting amazon to pick it up, I got so obsessed with the show that I had to have more and ended up reading the WHOLE book series, all 8 600 page books before season 4 was finally released on amazon... NO other show has had that effect on me. SUCH Ana amazing show and SUCH a great series of novels. I can’t fucking WAIT for the final 9th book to come out October 2021... CANT... FUCKING... WAIT!!! I really don’t know how they’re going to pull off the final arc of books 7-9 on the series. Those who’ve read the books know what I’m talking about.

[@eds1942]

The show runners said that they will probably end it with season 6 (which will be based on book 6), but that they won’t be going anywhere (whatever that means). I think that they might be hoping for a short spin-off series.

[@Serachja]

I have seen all the seasons but the last and have heard (audible) all the books. Yesterday I started watching the new season and I needed exactly this video of yours, as I was a bit confused about what had already happened and what not. Thanks for the sum up!

[@ManofRecaps]

Hey great video as usual, and congrats on officially working with Amazon! Yours are the only recap videos I enjoy as much as my own 😉

[@xeson79]

Thanks! Your videos are always great and I was a huge Expanse fan before you started doing videos on their series. So these videos are the whole "how Reeses first happened" of two of my favorite media.

[@businessoutsidethelines]

My ex was one of the people who previewed the whole first season and gave feedback. She said the first episode was so confusing nobody understood it and they cleaned it up. I think some of her comments were why they brought her back to watch the entire season. I've been waiting until I have time to binge Season 5. Glad it's still around and appreciate the recap!

This series is amazing! I've always been a scifi fan, read all the books a few times over, and I love what the cast and crew have accomplished and how well they've brought the novels to life. It was beyond all expectations and I can't wait for the final season! I also wanted to say how much I enjoyed Nadine Nicole's performance as Clarissa Mao, she has really done an amazing job at arguably one of the toughest roles and I can't wait to see more Amos & Peaches scenes!

Thank you for this recap. These shows nowadays are on hiatus for like a year or more(hate it). I don't know about anyone else, but sometimes I forget what happened in the last season. Heck, I some times forget about the show itself. Heck, heck not only do I forget about the show, I may lose interest too when it comes back on.....lol. Of course if its a awesome show I never lose interest.

[@JeffTY77450]

Thank you for posting this. I’ve watched _The Expanse_ from the very beginning but half the time I don’t understand what’s going on, in part due to the pidgin English the Belters use. I now have a clearer understanding. Was so sorry to see Amos have to kill his love interest in season-4. Besides the fact that I wanted to see more of her, Amos is my favorite character and I wanted him to find some happiness. Oh well.
