Xenosmilus Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 I just binged watched seasons 1-4. The series is based off a book series from my understanding. I don’t want to read the books that cover seasons 1-4. Can someone recommend what book I should start with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn’t sure if I liked this season at first but it’s grown on me. Same here. It took me about 4-5 episodes before I got into it. zhamlau 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco685 Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 Watched the pilot episode last night. Liked it. But also remember how I felt when I watched the first two episodes originally. But I realize from feedback here I need to get through Episodes 1-4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I failed a few times trying to get into it. I was so completely bored this week that I toughed it out and got through the initial episodes. I forgot how many episodes it took me, maybe 4-6 but it did finally hook me. Bosco685 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well now that I have the first three seasons available, once I get through those warm-up episodes then I can get into the better experiences.

bane Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Finished Season 4 over the weekend, I enjoyed it and I think its on par with the first season but not as good as season 2 & 3 IMO. Looking forward to more but after season 2 & 3, I wanted..... more. Bosco685 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco685 Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 I'm up to Episode 8 of Season 1, and really liking this show now. Glad people highly recommended watching it. drotto 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have watch the first 3 episodes of season 4. It is a little slow, but realize they had to reset the board and start many new storylines after basically blowing everything up at the end of season 3. Also, I watch this with my son. I would have binged it all by now, but he is not the binging type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad you stuck with it. By episode 8 you can now clearly see where things pick up, and why the first few episodes are important, but a little meh.

Bosco685 Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Up to Season Two now. It is too easy to state the second season is so much better than the first. You need to recognize they spent that first season warming you up to all the characters and their backstories. But man, do they kick it into high gear with that opening Season Two episode.

Bobby ends up having one of the best arcs on the show. bane, Timmay and musicmeta 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musicmeta Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 Started watching about a week ago based on all the feedback here. Really good show. Picks up steam after the first four episodes. I'm on the 2nd season and it's great! Better than the 1st season. Bosco685 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco685 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 To Season 2, Episode 6 (Paradigm Shift). Wow!!!! To me, this was such a pivotal and impressive episode I feel like it took the show to a new level even greater than the previous episodes. All the players coming together leading to the events of the moment, including the inventor of the drive that allowed for colonization portrayed in flashback scenes, was amazing. But the big battle leading to up the politicians strategizing next steps was intense. Thanks for the recommendations, folks!

thunsicker Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 I watched the first two seasons years ago when this thread was started and remember enjoying it. I may have to go watch the next two seasons some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco685 Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 I wrapped up Season Two. Really enjoying this show! But I have to say without knowing any future events, I really liked the final meet-up between Miller and Julie Mao. Like they were destined to meet. bane and musicmeta 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco685 Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 I'm deep into Season. What a fantastic show! Where Season 2 was really good, Season 3 is fantastic. So glad people highly recommended it. So worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultimately its central-plot is about the crew of the Rocinante. Which they don't even get until episode 5 or so. (Don Quixote's horse) As well as the ship in the RUSH song Cygnus X-1! (yes i know it came from cervantes) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
