I’ve just watched the first few episodes and I was really impressed. Avoids the worst sci-fi cliches and the plot is genuinely engaging!
There were a few moments with some dodgy production values and I’m not sure if they got it right on decompression in space (equally possible I was wrong!
) all in all though good stuff!

Season 2 is even better imho. Let's hope s3 has even more money spent on it.I’ve just watched the first few episodes and I was really impressed. Avoids the worst sci-fi cliches and the plot is genuinely engaging!

Just finished episode 6 of season two. Definitely enjoying it more now than first season. Need to find some time to finish it now what with Stranger Things 2 available.
Soldato
Finished season 2 last night.
Really enjoyed it, more so than season 1 actually.

Then a 6 month wait after it's finished airing in the US to pop up on Netflix here

That looks very good. Can't wait.

Looking forward to it, hopefully this year Netflix are quicker with the release over here I don't think Netflix aired s2 until 6 months after it finished in the US.
ohhh yes!!!!!!!
Did i see a nuke go off on earth?
im guessing by the end of s3 is when she gives the speech about everyone joining against the molecule
Soldato
It isn't a Nuke in the books
Didn't even know this was based from a novel! totally gotta read it
im guessing
Molecule bomb?

I would definitely recommend the books, there are 7 at the moment plus 4 novellas and 2 short stories! It is a slower burn and has a lot more world building. The politics, science, characters are all expanded upon in the books, it's always the way though I guess when translating from written work to TV.
I won't spoil anything however Avasarala in the TV show hinted at what it was in the first season? when she was lying down on her roof with her grand daughter?
