âWhy canât more shows be like this?â, the drinker asks. The answer may well be in his preamble. He literally took years to come around to countless recommendations to watch The Expanse, worried that he would be wasting his time on an unknown franchise. However, he will religiously watch every instalment of ever diminishing mega franchises, vainly hoping they will rekindle a spark of the lost magic they once had. We are all guilty of this, drawn to the safety of known brands and less willing to take chances with our time and money on âriskyâ unknowns. If we, as customers, are not willing to take risks on something different, why, then would the studios take even bigger risks producing it?
It is worth noting that, while a critical success for its original network, The Expanse was to be cancelled for financial reasons 2 seasons ago. It is only because Amazons Bezos was a fan of the series that it got resurrected on Prime.

"Amos is more complex than the entire Disney cast" đ true

I've watched every episode of every season so far of The Expanse and until 7 minutes into this video it never once occurred to me that there was a diverse cast, and I think that alone is a testament to how well this show does it. They weren't hired because of the colour of their skin, they were hired because they're bloody good actors.

You forgot to mention a very important detail. "Alien life" in expanse is actually >alien<. It's not a dude with green eyebrows that speaks English.

This show is honestly such a breath of fresh air in the SciFi world!

Chrisjen Avasarala is honestly one of, if not the best "strong female protagonist" I've seen played in the last decade. She doesn't need super powers or a dark past. She doesn't need proficiency points in firearms or martial arts. She is simply an intelligent, often ruthless woman who is amazingly adept in politics with a willingness to use that power to achieve her goals. It doesn't come across as artificial at any point. She has moments of weakness and disadvantage. Times when she is vastly out of her depth and knows it. But through it all, you know she is a major player without being bludgeoned over the head by a socio-political message.

How is a show so well reviewed by critics AND fans so underrated? It's insane how this show never got the attention or awards that it deserved.

When the worst thing The Drinker has to say about the show is Miller's haircut, you know it's good - BossMan

EPSTEIN DIDN'T KILL HIMSELF
... he just turned off the voice command.

Tom Jane is such an underrated actor. Loved his portrayal of Miller.

Unfortunately, the only reason we can have a show of this caliber in this day and age is because there was an author who did the leg work of a well thought out storyline, rather than modern screenwriters.

Bobby Draper is how you write a badass female character. She's great without having to tell us.

"Diverse casting done right"
Yep that was my experience with this show, no character/actor feels like diversity hire. Good and simple example is that gay ambassador, yes he has a husband, yes the show shows, but its just a small part of that character, like in real life, your sexual orientation isn't your personality.

"Even Characters like Amos, who seems like a big dumb bruiser stranded deep in Naomis friendzone, turns out to have more layers to his personality and backstory, than the entire cast of disney star wars combined" Punchline OF THE YEAR my dude! Glad you like it, Expanse is without doubt one of the best scifi shows ever. ;)

One of my favorite things about the show is that the writing doesn't shy away from punishing characters for being well-intentioned idiots. In the worlds of The Expanse, it's not enough to want to do the "right" thing: if you don't think about consequences, doing the "right" thing is more likely to make things worse, not better, for the people you thought you were helping.

This shows is the best example of how to add strong female characters in the story. Not to humiliate men. Show partnership, working as a team, support and respect
