I watched the pilot and am cautiously optimistic. I think BSG had a stronger beginning, but it was also working with a miniseries.

I just watched the pilot last night. It seemed pretty good, though I'm waiting to see how the follow up episode tonight is before investing time in it.

Just finished up Leviathan Wakes the other night. Really excited to see what they are able to do with the series. It is going to be quite the spectacle (in a good way).

I hope they get a Gracie to play Julie Mao's Space Jiu-jitsu instructor.

Chris James 2 was excited about The Magicians premiering Wednesday, Muscles was saying that it's not premiering as in next week will be the next episode. It's an early airing.

Lol, rant is strong, I was just a little perturbed about the way they changed how the captain of the Canterbury handled the distress call. It never got deleted in the book and Holden's only "crime" was to overcome his (purposely) limp arguments to ignore it.

Yeah, that is a change but it is entirely in keeping with Holden's idealist complex.

Sir DonkeyPunch posted:Sure, I just don't necessarily want to watch him weep about it/mistrusted by his companions about it forever You must not have read the book thoroughly because it is quite clear that his character believes doing the "morally right" thing and exposing the truth completely absolves himself of the collateral damage.

To be fair, Avasarala is his polar opposite and she doesn't come out clean either. ( book 5 red wedding spoilers) The way she not only accepts pragmatic realpolitik but enjoys it (eg she loves letting space-Mengele off with a slap on the wrist) comes across as very mature and hard-nosed and sensible. But only until her entire planet is blown up because she needlessly pragmatism'd the Belt past breaking point.

Apparently episode 3 and 4 (but not 2 for some weird reason) went up early on streaming services. And maybe some other places...

Just wanna say I appreciate the spoiler warnings explicitly for book 5. Waiting on them to publish the drat paperback so it'll be a while before I get my hands on it.
