Excellent news.
hell yeah
oh no
i need my dark matter back
This is great news. This past season is getting better with each episode, I would hate to end it while its hype was on the rise.
Huh. Good save.
I guess I should start watching this show soon, Have had it in my watch list for a while now
Fuck yea, there's a serious drought of Hard Sci-fi and The Expanse has been pretty good so far.
The Man in the High Castle has ridiculously high production values and has a much smaller following. I'd say The Expanse's budget is going to be pretty thicc.
This show is absolutely fantastic and I'm so glad we'll get to continue experiencing the story. I may be wrong here, but wouldn't the feel and quality of the show remain the same, as it's still the same guys producing it? (Just different owners now, Amazon instead of SyFy). Anyhow, awesome that it got picked up, it's rare that a show saves itself from cancellation like that.
Amazon has the distrubution rights, it was always produced by a separate company. The production quality just depends on the money they get from the Amazon deal. I can't imagine them cheaping out compared to a failing TV channel.
Bezos would probably not undersell Expanse, so I have good hope that production quality will at the very least stay the same. Great news.
This is great news, The Expanse is the best sci-fi show in a long time.
40% more explosions! (the books certainly get more explosivey as they went on)
