Sci-Fi Fan? Look No Further

Hands down the best science fiction show currently in circulation is 'The Expanse' which can be watched on Amazone Prime Video. Currently five seasons since first airing, the show has not yet been completed although it is rumored that the upcoming sixth season may be its last.

Quick Elevator Pitch - Why Watch This?

The Expanse is a fantasy in space exploration that grounds itself in the realism of physics. While action-packed, the show works on the context of a political drama between the nations of Earth, Mars, and the (asteroid) Belt. Gravity plays a huge role in this show and gone are the follies of green and red lasers that go pew-pew. Filled with moral conundrums, the show takes the audience in a personal struggle of several characters that constantly wagers the implications of their actions on a planetary level.

What Makes It A Keeper?

  • Attention to detail
  • An attempt at keeping space physics imaginatively realistic
  • Geopolitics of space exploration
  • That use of the rail-gun and point defense cannons (PDCs)

Here's a sneak peak of one of the show's battle scenes:

I have saw this show on prime but have not had the chance to watch it.

I am glad that more people are saying it is good as I may have to watch it once I finish catching up on Supergirl.

Make sure you don't give up after the first half of the first season. It gets much better after that.
