The Expanse - formerly on SyFy, now an Amazon Original

Ooh!!! Ok, I guess you got the answer.

The streaming services usually release seasons at midnight, but not always.

Well damn, they stepped up their game. IMO the first 3 episodes are worth the entirety of Season 4. Good stuff.

This season is based on Nemesis Games and that book is oft cited as the best book in the series.

Murder-oriented space opera isn't really my cup of tea, I'm afraid. At least it isn't STD...

Looks like S5:E4 became available a day early.

[cwerdna]

Wow. S5:E4 was really good. A LOT happens in that one.

I learned from https://www.tivocommunity.com/community ... -5.579886/ that there are apparently after shows at https://www.youtube.com/c/PrimeVideo/se ... ry=expanse. I haven't had a chance to watch any of them yet. I took a peek at the one for S5:E4.

It took me two sessions to watch the first ep of TE, and I stalled there. I had to turn the subtitles on to follow the patois, even though I haven't needed them before. I similarly took weeks to watch 3 eps of ST:D. There just isn't a science fiction show that I actually like out there, these days...

Disco season 3 has actually turned to be pretty good. Of course, there will always be mixed opinions. A co-worker who was behind a few eps said to me he felt Disco was really knocking it out of the park.

Disco season 3 seems to have a lot of reference to other Trek series, including TOS, TNG and DS9. It's almost as if the writers are in a race to put in the most references or something.

Pretty cool chuckle hidden in the last episode.
Doors & Corners - that's where they get you!
