    Wrong thread, but who cares. I'm trying to de-rail the Hate Train......Wanna see a VERY good new show? Presumed Innocent on AppleTV...wow. Luckily my wife hasn't seen the Harrison Ford movie so the ending is ruined. Great watch.....3rd episode comes out tomorrow.

    Question for real sci-fi nerds: how is The Expanse? The series is on sale and I’m tempted

    FUCKING AWESOME!

    It should still be free with Amazon Prime.

    It's a little slow building, give it a few episodes but the payoff is great.

    It's based on a series of books but unlike GOT the final book to the series had already been released, lol.

    It's just nice to see money put into a SciFi series that wasn't in the Star Wars/Star Trek universe.

    Casting and Special Effects are excellent.

    Speaking of casting, I really enjoyed Chrisjen Avasarala.

    How can this be? I heard the WOMEN in charge of special effects/affects are open minded liberals.
