Besides "The Expanse" there is "Magicians" "Gateway" and "Childhood's End". Since I couldn't post that, I posted the above instead. Hyperion as well.

Werthead Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Hyperion is in development, I believe. It hasn't been formally greenlit yet. Nice comment on the article pointing out that SyFy could do a spin-off film called Shrikenado :cool4: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt b Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 It's November 23rd actually, not the 3rd. They're having it premiere on mobile platforms ahead of the actual air date of December 14. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AncalagonTheBlack Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Pilot review is up on Tor.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red snow Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Pilot review is up on Tor.comSeems an even-handed review. The reviewer clearly isn't an obsessive fan of the books as talks about Corey in the sungular all the time (unless he's respecting the pen name).The Belter dialect sounds like a potential stumbling block - maybe they will add subtitles. I guess most broadcasters have that option avialbale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess most broadcasters have that option avialbale.The reviewer is Justin Landon, so pretty sure he's just respecting the pen name. Though it would be nice if he could name the guys behind the moniker. I'm hoping that Daniel will gain enough recognition from this show to get an adaptation of Long Price.And yeah, they'd be wise to use subtitles for the patois. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just finished a second reading a couple of days ago. I personally would really like to translate the first book into a modern opera. I think that the poses and narrative would be perfect on stage, and an epic musical background would fit in harmony.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White Walker Texas Ranger Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 The episode titles and sypnopses are here: http://expanse.wikia.com/wiki/Season_1Looks like the first season won't cover all of Leviathan Wakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astromech Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Oh wow, that does leave a decent chunk of the first book out of season 1, but understandable considering how much is in the first book.  Interesting that Avasarala is already in season 1. I'm only about 100 pages into Caliban's War so have no idea how she will fit into season 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pliskin Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 That seems really surprising, knowing where the first episode ends.I don't think those synopses are reliable. It would make for a very boring season, if they are to be believed. If we only get Eros in the last two or three episodes, episodes 2-6 would lose every viewer's interest.

It would make for a very boring season, if they are to be believed. If we only get Eros in the last two or three episodes, episodes 2-6 would lose every viewer's interest.It's been several years since i read the book but the fact the final episode is called Leviathan Wakes suggests it covers that scene which I thought was close to the end of book 1?I think there will be juggling regarding some of the plots. That and the fact they may well develop non-book material to give characters more to do. This isn't so different from GOT and maybe they are being different out the gate rather than wait a season before striking out? They only have 10 episodes so I'd rather it was extended into next season than rushed. As long as they don't go all Walking Dead and drag stories out.

White Walker Texas Ranger Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 It's possible they may shunt the entire Thoth station raid over to the next season, and have Miller stay on Eros the thing he does there. I've read it would mostly be Avarasala unraveling the conspiracy anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as they don't go all Walking Dead and drag stories out.Well, reading those synopses, that's exactly the feeling I get. Dragging nothing over two episodes.I know, I shouldn't complain, I haven't seen the thing.It's possible they may shunt the entire Thoth station raid over to the next season, and have Miller stay on Eros the thing he does there. I've read it would mostly be Avarasala unraveling the conspiracy anyway.Another possibility is that they'd adapt both books at the same time. That would explain why the finale is about Eros. If Avasarala brings half the second book with her, it might do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howdyphillip Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 I have read all of the books, and I am as exited about this show as I possibly could be. I do have one request though here in this thread. Can we spoiler tag book discussion until we have a book spoiler thread? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
