  This is the trailer for the sixth and final season. I think it's the most underrated show on TV.
   
  

  Quote:The Expanse is an American science fiction television series developed by Mark Fergus and Hawk Ostby, based on the series of novels of the same name by James S. A. Corey. The series is set in a future where humanity has colonized the Solar System. It follows a disparate band of protagonists—United Nations Security Council member Chrisjen Avasarala (Shohreh Aghdashloo), police detective Josephus Miller (Thomas Jane), ship's officer James Holden (Steven Strait) and his crew—as they unwittingly unravel and place themselves at the center of a conspiracy that threatens the system's fragile state of cold war.
  
  The Expanse has received critical acclaim, with particular praise for its visuals, character development and political narrative. It received a Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation and three Saturn Award nominations for Best Science Fiction Television Series.

  The first two episodes of season six have been amazing. They're wasting no time on showing the brutality of the war between the Belt, Mars and Earth. I'm sure will get into the mystery behind the portals and the protomolecule in the final four episodes. All the characters are so interesting, the writing is amazing, I love the visuals and the acting is so good. I really hope everyone behind the camera and in front of the camera go on to have even bigger careers now. I also hope the show will gain an even bigger audience too, it really is a fantastic show.

  Another great episode. It'll be interesting to see what how the Laconia plotline conlcudes. Avasarala seems to be making headway in thw war versus The Belt by taking Cersus. The Roci versus Marcos was amazing. The weight of the crown seems to weighing heavily on his head, and the cracks are starting to show to us as an audience, and to his crew as well. Phillip know his mum is right and that his dad isn't the hero that everyone thinks he is. I love that Bobby and Peaches have joined the Roci, they're both amazing characters.

  Another great episode. The story on Laconia continues to develop further and looks like it'll come to an interesting conclusion. The situation between Marco and Phillip continues to deteriorate. The Roci crew pretty much know now that Holden disarmed the missile, so now they'll be fall out from that. And Drummer sent a message to all of the belt calling out Marco, so that'll have to get resolved somehow. It's a shame that there's only two episodes left now, but I'm confident it'll end with a satisfying conclusion.

  What a penultimate episode to the series. The Laconia subplot started at the beginning as usual, and got to an interesting cliffhanger that'll hopefully be resolved next week. Marcos' control of the main portal and his surprise attack on the alliance was genius. Phillip is still showing signs of him not believing in his dad. Avisarala's plan to fight back was smart. Drummer is such an amazing character. Amos is brilliant. And I love Frankie. Holden is the conscious and moral centre point. I'm gutted that there's only one episode left. It'll hopefully become like The Wire, and gain an immense commercial and critical success once it concludes, and more people hop aboard and see how amazing this show is.

  That was pretty much a perfect ending to one of the greatest TV shows ever. It would've been nice if they could've adapted the remaining three books, but I'm still happy with the conclusion. And maybe they'll do it at some point in the future, either via live action or in an animated series. The Laconia plot concluded perfectly and left just enough of a cliffhanger that could be easily picked up, if the show does get renewed in the future. It could've been cut out, but I understand why they kept it in, because we needed to see what happened with Duarte and the protomolecule after the end of season five, and it aslo gave reason as to why Duarte cut his ties with Marcos. Holden's moral core remained true, and it made sense what he did at the end. I loved the conclusion to Drummer's story. Avisarala is one of the best character's ever. I loved the progression of Peaches, and how she became a hero. Amos is just so brilliantly relatable. Bobby is just so lovably fearless. Naomi is so smart, and it was so sad to see her reaction to what she thought had happened to Filip. I really hope The Expanse will eventually get the critical and commercial acclaim it so thoroughly deserves.
