    The Expanse starts a little slow, it picks up after the first couple episodes. I’m sure you’ve heard others gush about it, it’s worth another try :)

      Athens early episodes of the show they tried to inject some hostility among the main crew that simply wasn’t there in the books and feels very out of place. It took me several years to get through the first half of the first season.

      Once they stopped trying to inject the drama into it, it got a lot better, and I really enjoyed it.

      Then the asshole actor playing Alex turned out to be a creepy weirdo, and they ended up canceling the show in the aftermath of the controversy.
