The Expanse

Stayed up late last night to watch the last episode of The Expanse. Pretty meh, I say. I loved the first two seasons (even bought them on DVD), but it seemed to get weaker with each season, though there were bright spots, like Marco Inaros, his son, and Drummer. I dunno, it just seemed rushed how they ended the series. The sixth season was only six episodes, and the pacing seemed to quicken in the last two episodes. I didn't like how all of the heroes lived, and they had this one subplot where a kid is brought back from the dead but they left it totally open-ended . . . what was the point, then? Oh, and the annoying James Holden, the knight in Caucasian armor, doesn't kill Marcos in episode 4 or 5, but he has no problem doing the deed in the last episode? And would've been nice if Thomas Jane had a cameo in the last episode. Really disappointing. Now I kinda regret signing up for Amazon Prime just to watch it. Oh, well, back to another sci-fi letdown: the second season of For All Mankind.
