Earth, Mars, and the Belters are so busy fighting or try to one up each other.

It looks like they are over looking a new player that has arrived
 
This show is not only turning out to be one of the best SyFy channel shows ever. But it's starting to put itself in elite Space-SyFy shows ever. Every week they are surprising me and dropping Jewels. The pacing is phenomenal...

They really stepped up the pace from last season. Great season.
 
This show continues to be Boss! Damn, it just keeps getting better and better!

“Even our sense of time comes from them,” Dawes tells him. “The time it takes the Earth to spin around its axis, the time it takes the Earth to go once around the sun. On Jupiter, you would be celebrating your first birthday. It’s hard to feel we matter out here, isn’t it?”

The Expanse Renewed For Season 3 at Syfy

The Expanse has garnered high praise from all reaches of the solar system. The powerhouse Syfy adaptation is part of a strong lineup of well-performing series’ that move the network away from its over-the-top and cheesy past (Sharknado excluded). The second season continues to build a complex story that sets a (still) divided humanity against a force unlike anything its ever seen. A strong first season propelled the show to the top of the network, and the story and locations have gotten more expansive (pun intended) as the second season continues to unfold.

Syfy has put more resources into the second season as evidenced in the VFX that sometimes, and rightfully so, take center stage in each episode. There’s an integrated online presence that makes it easier for fans to engage with the characters and learn more about this world. The introduction of Bobbie Draper (Frankie Adams) has opened up new insight into the Martians and provides more depth to the conflict between the three factions — Earth, Mars, and The Belt.

Tensions between the three political powers may be rising to a boiling point, but fans can rest easy now that Syfy has confirmed The Expanse has been renewed for a third season. The upcoming third season will be another 13 episodes and is expected to return in 2018. Chris McCumber, NBC Universal’s Cable Entertainment President had this to say of the series:

“The Expanse is a gorgeous, thrilling, emotional series that has quite simply raised the bar for science fiction on television. We, along with the fans, are looking forward to continuing the journey with our partners at Alcon Television Group and the series’ brilliant cast and crew.”

The Expanse is a sprawling series that seems to do everything well, but nothing more so than the complicated relationship of its characters. While live tweeting episode 8 of season 2, “Pyre,” showrunner Nareen Shankar commented on the complexities and inner turmoil characters face noting that, “For the most part, everyone in The Expanse is doing what they believe is right.” If the pattern holds, each season ends with the title of the book it is based on. Season one ended on Leviathan Wakes (the first in the series), and the last episodes of season two is titled Caliban’s War (the second book). If things play out as closely in the series (as the have so far), then season three is sure to be even bigger and more complicated than anything we’ve seen so far.

Science steeped in reality, politics, and human nature are some of the things that the series has been recognized for doing well. With high ratings on Rotten Tomatoes and MetaCritic, it looks like NBC Universal and Syfy are giving the people what they want.

I never heard of this show, thanks for the heads up.
 
Just watched last week's episode. What was up with the hostility between Holden and Fred Johnson at the end when the Rosi was leaving Tycho? FJ told them don't come back because they wouldn't be welcome... and this was after Holden and them saved his life. Did I miss something???

I think Holden was pissed that Fred Johnson had those missiles that Earth launched and was planning to use them,if Earth got out of line....

He knows that they are some of his only remaining allies and feels betrayed because he took them in and spent alot of bread on making sure they were safe and sheltered and fed.
 
What I like best about this series is great acting in small roles. That black actor that told her where the ocean was, was really good.

His character name was Nico? He's a better actor than Chad Coleman who plays Fred Johnson.
