Smart and funny. I think The Expanse may be better. Intelligent and gritty. Omg another firefly fan?! If the expanse might be better. I'm going to watch it tonight.

The Expanse is better, but not very similar. Wildly different tones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneTwoSixFive Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 I was put off The Expanse due to having read the first couple of books by James S. Corey (starting with The Leviathan Wakes), pen name for joint writers Abraham and Franck. They are not awful, but I couldn't be bothered to read the later books in the series. I'm guessing the series is better than the books by the way people talk about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deathstar Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 The Expanse is some great hard sci fi. Amos is an awesome character. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sasquatch Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Firefly was damn good for its time and it ended way before its time - the franchise still has a huge following. I for one, enjoyed it immensely, especially Morena Baccarin 😍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I definitely have enjoyed The Expanse much more, but the Morena factor kept me watching Firefly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vegas492 Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Just about at the end of the first season of The Expanse. Really digging the show. At first there are too many plots going on at the same time. But I'm now to the point where they are starting to come together. I think we watched 3 episodes last night and will probably finish Season One tonight. Great character development. And they always have a "hook" at the end to make you want to keep watching. Just a great recommendation. Especially about giving it at least 4 episodes, because it is more of a slow burn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wgbeethree Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 I just want to put this out there... For the small fee of $1 million dollars I will consult anyone thinking of starting a professional football league. My entire service will be to say this and only this. "Don't. Stop. You're being stupid. You will fail and you will lose a LOT more money if you proceed with this terrible idea." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just got $1,000,000 worth of consulting for nothing I’m going to take the million I just saved and invest it into a minor league football franchise Edited August 3, 2020 by Cakeshoppe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
