The Expanse: Babylon's Ashes (2022)
"I will not be reasoned back into my place"
IMHO that was an excellent season finale; just enough action, every character had something fundamental to do to scrape victory.
But the real gem of the episode comes at the end, after all the gun battles, ship action and entities... three factions at a table, at long last, talking. In the end politics won out, the belt playing the game the inners have for centuries.
Fantastic stuff...
... season 7, 8 and 9 now please Amazon?
The Expanse: Why We Fight (2022)
Jim finally makes it to Ceres.
Another really great episode. I know some people won't be happy with the lack of spaceship battles, but it's everything I love about the expanse; strong characters, each of them going through an arch that brings us to this; the eve of the big push. The last stand. The threat is realised... Bring in the finale!
The Expanse: Azure Dragon (2021)
I can already see the complaints...
... it's got too much talking,
... it's too slow.
... character X is boring.
... character Y got too much screen time.
... needed more explosions.
... it's not as good as season 2.
... and so on.
But the reality is that this is faithful in all the right ways to the books, paced well and focusing on the things I care about; characters. It's all there, and like all seasons before it it is building towards something.
Patience; rewards are coming...
