While I’m enjoying the realism of The Expanse, I’ll admit I miss “shields down to 60%” and “warp core offline” campytech.

People with mixed-race looks have strong acting career prospects right now in near-future sci-fi. When the story is written for such a cast, it really works well. This main cast is a soup of interestingly ambiguous looks and names. Identifiable race people look awkward.

Weirdly, this has ruined Firefly for me. That show has a similar aesthetic but is much shallower and weaker... it’s the middle of the barbell. Either go full camp like Star Trek or full drama like The Expanse. Post-Civil war re-enactment cowboys in space doesn’t endure.
