saving this until whole season is available. excited! physics is a character! space is a character! (only very low-key avoiding spoilers)
i recall a tweet that the expanse was sort of too real for you? what changed??

Turned out I judged you soon based on the first episode. I mistakenly thought it was like that Gravity movie. The realist aesthetic fooled me.

I must rethink my whole tv model of you. I thought we were mostly orthogonal. (ugh procedurals mostly except for House, among other things)

* too soon, not you soon
Yeah I’m bored by realist hard sci-fi.
For detective stuff, I like some procedurals, like Bosch is excellent. But more a cozy fan. Poirot is gold standard.

oh yeah bosch is great
i mostly can't deal with return to status quo after every episode shows (which is not bosch).

I like status-quo episodic fine, and good long arc too. What I don’t like is lazy bolted-on long arcs as a character motivation hack. Like Monk was mainly good episodic but had a tedious “solve wife murder” series arc. Castle had tedious Beckett mom murder arc. Those annoy me.
