I watched S5E01 of The Expanse last night, and I was not disappointed. This season covers one of my favorite books in the series, so I'm pretty stoked. (I am expecting bigger changes than in seasons' past, since S6 will be the last one and they've still got 4 more books to cover. But since the authors are also the lead writers/producers on the show I'm at least confident they won't GoT it in the final stretch.)

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

What is even happening?
My younger son has watched the first few seasons of The Expanse (I think he's read the books too, but we've bought him so many Mars books, I'm not positive). He wants us to start watching after he finishes this semester. I'm always heartened when someone here already enjoys a thing someone in my family wants me to watch.

The show really hit its stride in S3, I think - for the first two seasons I was never quite sure if I liked the show because I loved the books or if it was actually good. But S3/S4 were fucking amazing.

Oh, wow, I thought season 1 and 2 were amazing! Note - still watching season 2. I do keep getting confused about what things I saw on screen and what I read because I started reading the books after watching at least some of season 1 so the pictures in my head are heavily informed by the show
Stupid work getting in the way of my binge-watching

From my team meeting today:
Boss: "What are folks going to watch over the break? Besides Jillian rewatching Hannibal, that is."
I am really ambivalent about the idea of a Firefly reboot. On the one hand, Joss' dialog is part of what it made it so memorable. On the other hand, everything about how Inara's character was handled ... okay, all the parts of Joss' id that were on display. I'm not sure how a reboot would move past that.

Yeah, that's a real issue.
... maybe they could hire Javier Grillo-Marxuach? Or John Rogers? They're both pretty good with the dialog and the genre stuff. Or bring back Ben Edlund?

I would definitely trust Kristen with it

Kristen definitely but only is she can still do the occasional 9-1-1 episode.
