For a genetically engineered designer baby, Holden is...well, if there was an Expanse-themed tarot deck, he'd be The Fool
I have IRL human friends who named a baby Holden just the day before yesterday and I'm seriously considering embroidering this on something for him. Thanks for solving my baby gift dilemma!
I just wrote "I'm good either way" to a coworker regarding a reporting process but what I heard in my head was Amos saying "I'm down for whatever"
5 episodes in, and this season of The Expanse just isn't grabbing me.
Really? I’m am so very into it. Thoroughly grabbed.
I'm unevenly engaged, I guess. Maybe one and a half of the parallel stories is engaging me, one and a half are really irritating, and a couple are boring.
But the effects are amazing.
It’s possible that my love for Amos and Clarissa is casting a halo over everything else. Bobbi going all Captain America was pretty sweet. I do spend a fair amount of my watching time trying (mostly unsuccessfully) to remember what happened in the book.
Volans, uneven engagement has been my experience with The Expanse, too. C really wants DH and I to watch it with him, so I'm just doing it for him. I would have tuned out by now, had I chosen it on my own. We're partway into season 2.
It seems to follow the books pretty closely, so I stopped reading them ahead of the show (I'd read the first one about 10 years ago but it all came back when I started watching).
Amos is great and I was hoping the season would be more Amos. I am torn on Clarissa - I like watching the actress, but the character has a pretty high body count to get a redemption arc, and I feel like that's where they are going. (Of course, I have a history of being less tolerant of mistakes made by characters we are "supposed to like;" I offended basically everyone by cheering when Adama got shot in BSG.)
