I liked the entity masquerading as Miller better than the actual Miller, I'm pretty sure. I wanted to like him because of the Noir thing and some of his qualities that *ought* to be appealing but his obsession with Julie really turned me off.
How's it sit? Pretty cunning, don'tchya think?

Miller bothered me more in the series than the books. I found him more sad and tragic in the books and more annoying in the series. Not at all pleased that the series apparently will never conclude as the books did. So much of the Laconia story was compelling to me, but apparently too costly to produce.

Yeah I totally get that they were going for a Raymond Chandler noir type character, which is usually right up my alley, but it doesn’t work for me here. I’ll probably read the books after.

ION, I also started Motherland: Fort Salem on my own, and I’m really enjoying it.

I’m now about halfway through S1 of The Expanse, and it’s starting to grow on me as there has been some character development. I need characters I care about if I’m going to enjoy a show.

Amos. Amos is my woobie. And yes, he's an inappropriate character to be a woobie, and yet.

Amos is growing on me, but I really like Alex too.

Amos is the fucking best and such a woobie. Although Alex is also pretty great in his own way.

Amos is the very best woobie ever.
eta: another the book is always better comment being there is so much more Amos in the books.

I just started S2 of The Expanse. Miller is still around. Does he go away soon?
