throw Michiel Huisman in there, that's his specialty!

He dies in a similar way in the books IIRC, not at the same point but out of the blue.

now that is something I did not know, figured he just kept on keepin' on with his Texan BS

Oh no I'm misremembering, it was another character who died that way - they just cut and pasted the names.

I don’t remember Alex dying in the books?

It was Fred who stroked out at the end of a high-g chase/battle.

GOT re-cast the Mountain TWICE (i.e. they had three different actors playing him).

so i saw this article a few days ago on mashable which made me think of a post here
taken me this long to try and post and also never tried linking to an older post, so lets see if this works
original post: Is anybody else watching The Expanse?
The clear cellphone thing looks cool, but it's so ridiculous. You can see the screen from the back! Especially silly when Miller is doing police stuff on his phone and trying to be stealthy.
and in new tech stuff. https://sea.mashable.com/laptops/31413/lenovo-thinkbook-transparent-laptop-hands-on-yes-its-actually-see-through

It's cool that it focuses on Drummer

S2 E6 - Holy shit.

For the Telltale game, I love the focus on Drummer but I hate how high the bar is for choosing correctly in order to avoid very unpleasant story line turns. I love hearing that actor play that character again, but right now I'm trying to decide whether to start over on the game or abandon it.

Cara Gee’s real accent is very confusing in interviews IIRC.

Rewatching the show. Just got to S2E5 “Home” about Eros, Julie and Miller. What a great episode visually and emotionally.

S3 E5 is one of the best episodes of TV I have ever seen.
Naomi's origin story.
A Tarantino-style showdown on the bridge of the Enterprise.
The last 25 minutes is edge of your seat tension.

The back half of S3 is wild - such a drastic shakeup. It feels like Holden activating the station should have been the end of a season and there was still half the season to go.
Amos and Alex are my two favorite characters. The former is the "Data" of the show, exploring his lack of humanity to show us humanity.
I love how the show is fundamentally a Star Trek show about exploration. It is gritty yet fundamentally positive.
