Title: Any fans of The Expanse here?

Any fans here? Now that Amazon Studios have the show I'm excited like hell about the upcoming seasons!

Yes, I've waited for each season to air completely before watching, usually 2 EPs a day over a week.

Glad someone saw the value... it seems contradictory for a channel named SyFy to cancel one of the best rated space scifi shows on air at the moment  :facepalm:

I need to catch up it... Was midway through season 2 when I stopped for no real reason.  :think:
I should get the books also...

Indeed! Somebody said "Amazon just obtained 150.000 subscribers". The show was not accessible in my country (been watching it on torrents) but I'm gonna  subscribe to AmazonPrime now for support, even if they do not broadcast to where I live.

I'm thinking about that too, though there are 9 books now, a friend says. 9! This is an encyclopedia, man!

I only have one complaint about PrimeVideo, and that's that due to the feud between Amazon and Google I can't cast to my Chromecast, nor will my Android TV box run the PrimeVideo app. It's fine if I only want to watch on phone/tablet/laptop/PC, but useless on my TV unless I buy a FireTV stick, to plug into a TV that already has 3 other devices that should run PrimeVideo but don't  :facepalm:

Hey belta, which sources are you using for that? I'm interested in it, too, but couldn't find any sites teaching it  :think:

There are a few...

http://expanse.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_Belter_Creole_individual_articles

https://www.memrise.com/course/1476694/lang-belta-belter-creole-phrasebook/

Then there's Reddit Belta community

and most importantly The Expanse on Discord, #lang-belta channel over there is where it's at...

There are actual linguists talking and teaching Lang Belta over there, they know their smurf  :cheers:

Hey, can you make a comparison between the show and the books? Never read the series but I'm curious.

We could start Lang Belta thread here, if there's enough Belters around...  :pok:

In case you missed it, all previous seasons of The Expanse are now available on Prime Video as of 8th Feb.  :woohoo:

YES! Eagerly waiting for the 4th season  :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool:
Though, Amazon Prime's too expensive here, I might opt for not-that-legal solutions  ::)  8)  :-\

Spain was 20 euros/year, it's now bumped up to 36 euros this year... which I still think isn't bad for an entire year.

About 5 euros a month over here in Finland, still not too bad.. (Only Prime Video though)...


And yes, GIMME THE SEASON 4 ALREADY!  :twak:

I hope season 4 is either all at once, or in twos, since I tend to marathon 2 EPs at a time
