For me it was too hard work, complicated plot with nothing to keep you interested. Binned it after 2 episodes.

I figure though that too many people say it’s awesome, just surprised as it’s not making me interested at all.

It took me 3 attempts at watching the first two episodes. Towards the end of season 1 everything just clicks. It's fucking brilliant if you have the patience. Totally get where you're coming from.

Right, message to all major fans of The Expanse.

I’m 4 episodes into Series 1 and finding it a real struggle, no real understanding of who the fuck is who, no affiliation to any person, nothing feeling clear storyline wise - is this just me, did everyone else find it like this initially? Please someone reassure me!

I was already invested in the TV show before it started as I'd already been reading the books that it's based on. Just had to adjust to the differences made in telling the story on a different medium.

I've been exactly the same mate, tried it 3 times (up to about episode 4) because of what people say on here and the boards I moderate on, and nothing, nothing at all is drawing me in, the characters, the (what seems) confusing and convoluted plots/angles, and like FI, I love Sci-Fi shit, I feel I should like it, I WANT to like it, but this is a real struggle, and I even managed to finish "Raised by wolves".

I originally started it and decided I was done after 3rd episode.

I went back to it a few months after season 1 finished and binged it, realised I was just too impatient first time and it is worth the slow yet convoluted early build up.

I think binging it was my better option tbh.


Best sci-fi series since BSG rebbot

I found that. Then something clicked.

The fact thatcit isn't for me.

So i abandoned it.

Just started watching Ozark.
How did I miss this?
Brilliantly dark humour and great acting.

My no.1 series. Similar premise to Breaking Bad, but I prefer it.

Has anyone watched Your Honor? Tempted to give it a go.

We are half way though it, I’m enjoying it so far. Not spectacular, but decent enough.
