I have really enjoyed it and looking forward to Amazon finally putting the second season on prime. As for is it good? Yeah it's the best sci-fi on TV right now, and the best since Firefly. (BSG would have gotten this except for the last season) |

I really enjoyed this. It's a film noir sci-fi horror series.
I think the only misstep was the casting for the Marine SNCO. The sullen, petulant, fatbody they cast was ridiculous.

Finished season 2 last night, they really leave you hanging.
I like it, I like the ships, I like the Epstein Engine and I like the way they did up the whole show. There's nothing too far out there and the show is mostly political with really cool spaceships and a portrayal of life in the future. |

Really top two favorite shows on currently. Game of thrones is even with it in my opinion, but im more science oriented when it comes to scifi. To much scifi these days has no science behind it.

I think the great thing about this show is how real it can really be. This isn't hundreds of years into the future like Star Trek with warp drives and teleporters, this is within humanity's reach.
Developing a drive that "only" goes 3% of the speed of light can get us to other planets in weeks and the edge of solar system in months. The biggest thing holding us back right now is the cost of sending men and material up into space, as soon as we can find a way to do it cheaper (SpaceX continues to improve the price) there's no holding back. |

The Mariner Valley in the books is settled first by a bunch of Texans, then by a wave of Indians and Chinese who pick up the accent. The music Alex listens to is supposedly a mix of country and indian pop music. Quote HistoryQuoted:

I like it.
The first season was a bit slow at first as they set the plot and characters. The second season is excellent. My son is an avid science fiction buff and gave me the second season in DVD. When the third season is close I'll re-watch Season 2 so I can be ready to continue the story. |

The premise was very good, except they soon apply the hollywood addiction formula to it. Same endless hooks, and resolveless spins that copies the psychology machine that all tv shows now follow. Like LOST, Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones.... All plays to your emotions, and cliffhangers for more adrenalin and dopamine. Endless twists until the mass moves to the new hipper hook machine and the ratings slowly die off.

The books are very good (ignoring that the latest essentially stole its entire premise), but the show is rather meh. The episode "CQB" saved the show from cancellation, I'm reasonably sure. But the days of amazing sci-fi are gone, so one must take what there is to take.
