We've managed to watch season one of The Expanse, and enjoyed it very much. Certain caveats: it starts slow with the TV equivalent of an info dump/world-building that shakes itself out by the end of the second episode. After that it's pretty much high-octane story telling. The news is that it has been renewed for season three, but that numbers the viewing numbers are not what the network hoped for. Knowing my luck it will be cancelled, but you never know.
If you haven't checked it out I suggest you do. It has certainly piqued my interest in writing a novel set in our solar system: I fancy doing a pretty hard SF take, which is problematical because it will affect what stories can be told and how one tells them.
Still, what's life without a challenge. I may be some time.
