@@asiantaxevasion1042 it wasn't "canceled" from Amazon. There's a problem in that book 7 has a time-jump several decades. Aging actors convincingly is hard and doing it for something like 20 to 24 episodes is bonkers. The decision to end the (main) show at 6 seasons was NOT about viewer counts or ratings. The shortening of S6 to 6 episodes was made with various factors in mind, budget only being one. It was also a narrative decision.

@Mike23443 2 года назад

The thing that got me the most is that the show accurately portrayed the experience of a pen and paper RPG campaign. And that's basically because it essentially was a transcript of one in many ways. The original authors started the books based off of a campaign they played. This is why these characters felt so real and memorable. It's because they weren't all written by one or two people. Their backstories were written individually. Their personalities, feelings and emotions all started out from an independent seed of creativity of a number of people to be cultivated and grown into a full story more so by game masters than just writers. This is one of the first times I saw a show where the characters' agency drove the plot forward rather than the plot conveniently making the characters fall back in line. Because as a game master, you can come up with whatever story you want, but it will always ultimately be up to the players' decisions where that story goes, not to the writer. It's so easy to forget about characters' motivations when you have an entire world to keep track of and coordinate. It's easy to make a character fall in line out of convenience or by accident, but not when a player is behind that character. They will fight back and they will forge their own path and I'm so glad that this sentiment carries on so well in this show. Every character is so uncompromisingly true to themselves and their personalities.

@TheSuperappelflap 2 года назад

Also, because originally it was a pen and paper campaign, when Shed character died early during that campaign, they had to kill him in the books too (and eventually, in series).

this is absolutely mind blowing. Pen n papers is clearly a great source of writing material bc the RULES and consistency must be adhere to.

@theresabu3000 21 день назад

I never knew it developed from that. Kinda makes sense though - as almost all characters are equally important and their motivation makes sense. Cool concept, wouldn't necessarily think that could work - but it clearly did inspired a really good story 🥰

I agree about the consistency of The Expanse. It's pretty incredible that they managed to keep the quality up that high the entire time. The only thing I can compare it to is the first 4 seasons of Game Of Thrones.

The amazing thing for me is how often they would just shift genres and still make it great. I think that is what makes The Expanse such a realistic show: the world isn't made of one thing, one theme or one goal, it's everything all at once.

@m.branson4785 2 года назад

Interestingly, one of the writers was George RR Martin's personal assistant. The setting was originally conceived for a video game project, but short of that, they developed it as a table top rpg. The characters and general storyline come from their tabletop game sessions, and I've always suspected that George was one of the players.

I love how The Expanse, both the books and the show, has sort of put the rest of sci-fi on notice by saying sci-fi needs to be better. And not only by depicting science more accurately in sci-fi, such as weightlessness, ships behaving more like submarines, warfare being a long-range, missile-heavy fight, but also by saying that sci-fi needs to drop the old clichés and tropes. The Expanse portrays the real diversity of humanity and tells real, human stories that aren't based on millennia-old stereotypes or myth cycles. Honestly, what 2001: A Space Odyssey did for sci-fi in the late 1960's by making it a legitimate and artful genre, The Expanse has once again transformed the genre by forcing sci-fi to grow up, but also while still getting to have spaceships and space marines and cool tech. The Expanse is, I believe, one of the most important works of science fiction ever created and I hope more and more people discover it.

To touch on your point about good scenes just being actors acting well in a room, part of the reason why the Expanse's universe feels so real, a lot of it is. Most of the sets are physical sets that were constructed in a giant warehouse. This allowed actors to feel more in the scene. And since there are many reoccuring ships and stations in the show, it's actually quite practical to do, as you can just save the interior of the important ships.

@teddymasters1347 2 года назад

Fortunately I had nothing else in my queue and nothing else to do with my time so I was like yeah sure lets continue with season 2 out of boredom. And that's when I got insanely hooked. Season 1 was mostly character introduction and world building which absolutely needed to happen. But wasn't fun to watch IMO. Or at least not as fun as everything that comes after it.

The more important is there are so much beautiful decor, so much wonderful dialogues, very good ship battles, so much intelligence, love, wisdom, originality... in this show that at the end I can't help from being pleased.

To be fair, The Expanse began on Scy Fy and they had/have a HUGE image problem as far as the 'quality' of their original productions. When it really caught on, it went over to Amazon Prime which further throttled it's potential. I found out about it when it showed on Prime, and I got Prime for the Boys.

Thank you for making an inspiring review of such an inspiring show. You’ve really honored the spirit of this craft. BSG has finally an expansive ally, into the Olympus of sci fi tv

The Expanse has been my favorite show since it began and I’m so sad it’s over. I loved this series. Your video was great, I got a little teary eyed.

The character depth and development on this show are *so* good! It's so satisfying to watch one reactor after another start the first few episodes by questioning Amos' or Chrisjen's value, only to wind up yelling "I *love* him/her!" by the middle of the second season. BTW, seeing Prax hug Mei at 14:54 made my tear up all over again!

I found it when it came to Amazon Prime and was instantly hooked. You said it so well. The space battles (while absolutely awesome and engrossing and some of the best I've ever seen) arn't what make this show so enjoyable, it's the weaving of the narrative, characters and themes. This might be my favorite video about the Expanse so far. Well done! (I felt every groan of frustration and mmmmm!) Haha

I happened upon the expanse when 1x04 aired. I watced the first 4 episodes and then proceeded to read all the books by the time 1x05 came out. I am so glad that such great material got proper production values, and the montage in your essay very clearly shows, that people actually cared about making this good, people gave it their best, the writers, actors, set designers, clothiers... everyone just went for it, and it shows.

I love this show so much. I wish I could make every person around me watch it. I wish I could get more people to see what they're missing and I wish so much that we could get the final arc on screen, but really I'm so happy to have what we got

@@Friendlygiant666 Yeah I have rewatched certain episodes or scenes but a full comprehensive review will probably be a better experience.

@Friendlygiant666 2 года назад

@@hunterpdx7061 after they moved to Amazon I'd rewatch the series right before a new season dropped and it made the new season much more anticipated. Plus I've watched it a couple of times since season 6 ended because I don't think there'll be another great scifi show like this for a while

@BaseDeltaZero1972 2 года назад

Still not watched this, but too many people I respect really have a hard on for it., this final review may push me over the edge, it really does look like there has been real thought, and character growth all factored into this series/story.

@nutbastard Год назад

I knew I loved this show, but you my friend told me why. It's endlessly rewatchable, not something that can be said for a lot of shows. Having seen it over and over again, I'm blessed to be able to jump into any random episode and still feel something every single time. There isn't a single dud in the series. Not one. Great essay and you earned a sub from this guy. I am that guy.

@TheinterfaceTvSeries 4 месяца назад

I 100 percent agree with you. This series is pure perfection! And WOW did it stick the landing! I was never so sad and exhilarated by a series finale in my life. I wish I could hang out with this crew forever but I would rather have it end beautifully than watch it overstay its welcome!

@XeonAlpha Год назад

I _hated_ Marco Inaros… but that was the point. The Expanse did a truly exceptional job of crafting a story where you loved all the characters and hated the villains (with good reason). Being said, the Expanse pulls another incredible trick by making Marco sympathetic. I can’t sign on to his methods but you understand why so many people would.

@OscarIna0fTimeVODs 2 года назад

I love the part where you explode saying you love this show hahaha totally my feeling towards it, but also towards your video. I always recommend this show, though a lot of people struggle with it because it has a slowish pacing (which I love in this show because it doesn't focus on the action, it focuses on developing the story and showing as the world, the cultures, the struggles, which give us context for every damn thing and it's great). But I've managed to convince a couple of friends to watch it and they loved it. From season 4 and on I enjoyed a lot being able to share with them this experience.
