Now we know why Errinwright was so dead set on eliminating the Martian stealth launch platforms. It wasn't to eliminate Mars' first strike capability, but to make sure they couldn't retaliate for the attack Nguyen just launched, and avoid mutually assured destruction.
Crap. Did not make that link when I watched through. So. Much. Depth.
@@ianfowler9505 I didn't catch it the first time I watched it, but it suddenly made so much sense when I rewatched tbe entire show. This is one of the many things I love about the show: they give you very little exposition and make you infer things for yourself. Most shows would've had a moustache twirling Errinwright tell us the plot. It makes this show so much more engaging to me.
Great observation and I too didn't catch it in my first watch through. There's always new things to discover with this series.
That Martian Captain is a memorable small part character.
All kinds of small part characters are amazing in this series. Captain of the Donnager too.
This show has the greatest minor characters ever.
Yeah I really like how this show makes sure we see these smart and level-headed Martians as well.
I'm glad she didn't listen to the cylon.
There are lots of amazing Martian officers.
This episode is one of my favourite in tv history. It lets smaller characters have huge moments and pushes the story forward and sets it up in perfect amounts
I can't get over the Expanse. Since I found the show two years ago, I've rewatched it 8 times and it never fails to entertain!
Wow that is impressive. Even my favorite show of all time ive only watched twice!
Great reaction, guys. 🙂 Watching The Expanse is like sitting in an especially wobbly rocking chair, then realizing that the chair is in the back of a pickup truck going 100 mph, then realizing that the truck is zooming down the runway of an aircraft carrier, then realizing that the carrier is heading towards a giant whirlpool in the middle of the ocean. Right now, y’all are at the “This rocking chair is ON A TRUCK” stage.
Love the analogy
If you recall, in every instance since season one that we've seen Souther and Nguyen (pronounced "wen"), they have behaved consistently so that at this point, what they are doing feels fully on brand. We've seen them heading to this collision all along. Good writing, even for minor characters.
Souther expected too much honor from his service comrades, thinking that even the worst of them would respond with honor when called to it.
This show gets better and better when re-watched again and again, which is the reason fans enjoy your reactions. Even we see and understand more about the story as we watch it with you.
Nikki mentioned, for instance, that the hybrid on the Roci took out the governor device in its chest. That connects to the fact that all elements of the Protomolecule are communicating in real time with each other (which we only learned last episode). When we saw that, we realized what that bright flash meant 'way back when the first hybrid was leaning over Bobbie. So the hybrid in the Roci knew it had a bomb in its chest. And upon rewatch of the earlier episode, we also noted that the overhead drone flashed red, the signal it sent to detonate the bomb in that hybrid. So many new connections to make every time you watch it.
Very good analysis! I agree completely!
I only noticed the flash on the third or fourth time i've watched that episode... Hehehe
Souther is the Ned Stark of this show.
This is one of my favorite eps. I love Capt Kirino of the MCRN Hammurabi.
Historians will write books about her, for sure.
@@Melancthon7332 Hopefully the series creators will, too! I'd read/watch a series about her exploits.
One of the best episode of the entire show so far, espacially the mutiny scene and all that happens after on the Agatha King !
Yes! mutiny scene was far more intense for me in this whole season :D
The Martian captain is brilliant in this episode.
MVP for sure. It's also interesting because it's a complete change around of how they write Martians - early on they write them as brainwashed militaristic wackjobs, even on the Donnager, until something really catastrophic happens to snap them out, she's considering all the angles right from the start, it's a total 180 on what they write to make you believe they're basically pure unadulterated evil.
@@streaky81 Lt Sutton, captain of the Sirocco, was also pretty level headed. If such folks are rare, then at least Mars has the wisdom to put them in positions of authority :)
Not really, there are always Martian CO that levelheaded, like Bobbie's CO or Capt Yao or Lt. Lopez, but they were certainly proud as hell and had resented Earth hegemony coz they are 'on the way' for Mars really focus to built their 'Eden'. Ofc in the proud group always there people that gung ho as shit.
@@streaky81 Respectfully, I disagree. What they wrote was largely the Martian reputation from the Earther and Belter POV but our first (audience) contact with the MCRN resulted in Martians laying down their lives to save Holden & company. And the Rocinante itself was a direct result of it.
Even Bobbie's zeal was constantly tempered by her CO's prudence. The Martians (as represented by the MCRN) were surely a driven and hard people but they were also deliberate and cautious, never cruel (except the patrol team who fleeced Diogo's uncle).
The Martians were never evil as a people. Like Earth and the Belt, they were human. And like all human cultures, they were comprised of myriad sensibilities and various levels of morality.
Yes, the show gave the impression that they were the war-hungry enemy. But that was only by reputation. In reality, they were portrayed as human as anyone else. No more, no less.
They were never straight evil.
Captain Yao proved that.
Angelo Barovier Beautiful comment. I agree completely.
The Expanse is just amazing. Who knew that the scifi channel show in a rather bleak future would have some of the most real, complex and interesting characters in a TV show ever.
Love your reactions, have to watch the second half of the video during my second break 😅
Screaming Firehawks!! Lots of love from Germany 🇩🇪💚
As with almost all great shows that SciFi has, then cancelled it though. Makes it really difficult to get ones hope up when they have a great show on their roster. They crushed my soul with Farscape, Dark Matter and a few others. They almost got me with The Expanse, Bezos be praised (whatever else you think of him). They are almost as bad as Fox!
If only some one had warned you that this show gets better and better.....
🤣
Actually the last season was bad.
To be exact... the nurse was not torn apart. He was meticulously disassembled down to his base components.
Quite possibly my favorite episode of the entire series. The mutiny on the Agatha King and the total awesomeness of captain Kirino who in just a few scenes and with just a few lines became my favorite minor character. To me this is a perfect hour of television.
Seeing you guys get so enthusiastic about the left turns and trying to work out where things will end up in this show makes me think you’ll both get an absolute kick out of the Netflix original show Dark!
A nice detail that was explained more in the books was that the Jiminez wasn’t able to reprogram its PDCs fast enough to recognize the incoming UN torpedo as something it should destroy. It would have registered as friendly to their defense systems.
Nice. I saw somewhere else a discussion about this. Some said that maybe the ship didnt have PDCs because it was small (I dont remember the other comments). Some of the people commenting supposedly read the books, but somehow no one (at least until the last time I checked that thread) mentioned what you wrote. Thnks
That's what I love so much about The Expanse; it doesn't bother explaining all the details, but there are reasonable explanations for almost everything.
Like The Last Kingdome this show is so much underrated. There should be much more people out there watching this show. A Masterpiece of TV-History in my Opinion.
The next episode is one of my favorite of the entire series...and just for a single scene.
I hear you, brother.
A “guy” scene?
No spoilers please.
@@Vaultboy-ke2jj come on man. Be careful
There are a few people who like the next episode the most... I am (also) that guy.
Game of Thrones, excellent as it was in its heyday, only really had one way of surprising and shocking the viewers, namely unexpected deaths. On the other hand, the Expanse never stops coming up with so many totally different ways of doing it.
You mean that show which is like The Expanse except in a fantasy setting 😂
27:17, In that case, I think you're about to have a new favorite show because it only gets better!!
I loved your comment regarding Errenwright "winning" and I could not help thinking about a pigeon playing chess by knocking over all of the pieces and then defecating on the board.
lol
You Nguyen some, you lose some
Things sure went South.
@@kaipoh265 They went further than South - they went Souther...
The Expanse it is in my TOP 3 best TV Shows and I have already watched so many shows XD
For me it's the Expanse, then Better Call Saul, then....hmm....
What are your top 2?
The Expanse and Mr Robot
Notice how it has been, for the most part, Martians generals, captains and such who have been the ones unwilling to openly start a war. Bobbie's captain in the second season as the soldiers were sent to Ganymede, he told her war is not what they wanted. Now this wonderful lady said, nope we aren't shooting UN ships.
Great reaction, they did such a great job building the world in the 1st season, and now they can just keep ramping up the intensity and get the pay off! Glad you guys are into it
I am catching up to you!!! We just reacted to this one last night. SOOO awesome!!! I was so mad at Mao I couldn't even speak...only flail my arms around.
When the ensign asks Nguyen how he wants to respond and he walks over to the console to launch the hybrids..this is my all time favourite moment of television. the score gives it such energy and menace
The show isnt even halfway to where it is gonna be. Without spoilers, the turns it makes will blow your mind.
I love how into the show you guys are and I'm so glad you started watching this. This show has enough depth to reward multiple viewings. I look forward to re-watching each episode with you.
Steven: "I'm exhausted. Are you?"
Nikki: "Yup!"
Steven: "These episodes are just"
Both!: "NON-STOP!!" 🤣🤣😳
Tell us how you really feel guys 😂❤️
Fun fact: The voice and motion capture of hybrid Katoa was all done by the guy who played the cyborg spy dude from season 1, cause he had experience in mo cap and voicing the main character in the Deus Ex games.
I really liked that dude...
This show kept rising in my estimation long after I saw it the first time, it stayed in my mind for a couple of months, so I watched it again and then realised that I love this show. It now sits equal first in my favourite shows with The Wire that to me has been the beacon of quality writing and character arcs and all that good shit for many, many years.
That’s interesting. I had a similar experience. Really enjoyed it first time through, enough that it pipped BSG as my favourite sci fi, but it was only after rewatching that it took the all time top spot for me. Season 1 in particular I enjoyed much more the second time round (and that was before season 4 cast certain things from season 1 in a new light).
Only thing that you can predict is all of the future "mind blown" moments still yet to come. Just enjoy the ride. Watching you two react to all of this for the first time is the best.
My parents were getting genuinely stressed out over what was going to happen, watching this episode. Insisted on watching the next on immediately. I never expected them to get so into it. :D
Souther never faked anything except a power outage, died with honor.
10:22. Yeah, um, Boyer? About that campfire story (nicely told, by the way), the only one on the Yashi who could have started a firefight with a twitch would have been the fire-control officer. Would you happen to know that twitchy, paranoid officer's name? I think it might have started with an "Ngu".
16:19. I like how the Battle Stations klaxon is in tune with the background music.
17:44. "What the hell was that?" That, Mssr. Mao, is the sudden arrival of new and vastly more pressing priorities.
20:25. Ladies and Gentlemen, the MVP of the episode, MCRN Captain Sandrine Kirino, who led the Martian fleet to victory in the Io engagement by simply being the adult in the room. (In stark contrast to that worthless pile of crud Nguyen, who utterly demoralized his forces by turning his guns on his own fleet.)
I love watching these reactions. It reminds me how season 3 just DOES NOT LET UP with the crazy shit happening.
Yeah, season 3 is my favorite season so far. This is how you do Science-Fiction. Don't get me wrong, I *LOVE* Sci-Fi and Sci-Fantasy, equally. But if you're going to do "realistic", Newtonian-based physics, science fiction, *_The Expanse_* is the standard. The novels this series is based on are so good in their own right, I initially had a concern that they wouldn't be able to accomplish what they have accomplished. Truly, amazing show!
Yup, I love this type of science fiction. Wish TV would do more of it!
This show...This show! Now you know why I was sounding like a broken record recommending this show every time you guys had a vote. lol Love It!
Love how excited both of you are. The show will not let you down :)
If you think you've seen it all, you ain't seen nothing yet. Can't wait for next Thursday & Sunday's reaction.
Love this reaction series to such a good show. Btw, just get ready it does not stop being balls to the wall, ever.
I've been using Screaming Firehawks as my fantasy football team name for at least the past 3 years.
Yeah I gotta admit this show has taken twists and turns I couldn't have come close to predicting either in the beginning. It's a fun ride though.
The hybrids are being sent out for the Earth fleet to collect. Nguyen is conspiring with Erinwright because they're very much alike. They both hate Mars, believe in Earth's superiority, have always wanted a war and will do anything to win. But that feverish desire for war has turned around on Nguyen.
This season really goes a mile a minute. The next episode is one of the best episodes of the series. And no, there's no way you'll predict where this is going.
Yes Nikki i agree, every episode gets crazier.
You should really watch the next two together at one take.
Worth it.
Reminder: Slingshot Racing. Ask teh community what it is. It was in season 1 but it was a fast scene.
All right I'll try to explain without spoiling. "Slingshot Racing" is trying to race a course by using the gravity of moons and planets to 'slingshot' a craft instead of using engines. People gamble on the results. Alex did this in Season 2 episode 10 to evade the ships around Ganymede. This is why the astronauts had to go around the moon in Apollo 13.
@@SnarkKnight1 Bizi Bitiko tried it in S01E04... And we have it in S03E07 coming... Trying not to spoil anything...
balls to wall is the perfect description of this season especially after episode 7
I love that scene with Naomi and Holden.
If I told you it gets even more crazy in the second half of the season.. Next episode is the last one covering that book, there's a massive tonal shift after and it might blow your minds a little, but that's nothing compared to what happens after..
Wow, watching you guys watch this episode just gave me enough hype to want to watch this show again from the beginning....again....for the fourth or fifth time. I love this show. Probably recommend it more than any other to reactors.
"Balls to the Wall"
The next T shirt
Donkey balls to the wall?
Prefer Bobbie's instruction to Crisjen in the Razorback "Hitch your tits and pucker up", that's true for all of us who watched season 3.
I might be totally off base here, so I welcome anyone who's better versed in the subject or have read past chapter ten in leviathan wakes (that's where I'm at currently in the books lol) to correct me if I'm wrong. I'm pretty sure the reason why the PM keeps says "can't stop the work" is because it heard Dresden say that a bunch. That was his whole thing. The PM adopted that particular phrase as a way to express it's intentions with whatever it's building currently, which we find out what it's been building at the end of next episode leading into the start of Abbadon's Gate.
Not what you expected. And they still are going to blow your mind further and I'm watching you can't even think of.
So glad you two are checking out The Expanse. It's one of the best shows out there. I think you two would truly appreciate The Knick as well. It's a year 1900 medical drama with lots of sex, drugs, betrayal, political intrigue, racism, religious issues, etc. It's a lot like Breaking Bad.
Next episode is gonna give you guys nothing but goosebumps
Buckle up buttercups! The next episode is going to be insane-o-batshit-crazy! The shit is about to hit the fan!
this was the episode when they announced that SciFi had cancelled the Expanse
Can't wait for you guys to watch the next episode! You literally have NO IDEA what will happen next and its soooo good.
And this was just the first of several "balls to the wall" episodes in a row. Strap in, this vessel is accelerating to lightspeed now.
Normal People: Don't say "Screaming Firehawks"
Steven: I am that guy
SCREAMING FIREHAWKS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Erinwright is almost like Littlefinger, “… be Lord of the Ashes”
"This show!! This show!!"
Mentioning not knowing where this show is going.....oh boy oh boy
Imagine, having absolutely no clue :D
And if you've read the books, oh boy! I definitely did not see it coming. Everything gets more and more twisted.
Don't forget Nikki, Steven.... Don't watch the intro sequence for episode seven.
a.k.a. the episode where everyone suffers multiple heart attacks.
Just think about how we felt when we watched this show on syfy and had to wait a whole week between eps. Also, I think it was about ep 5 when syfy announced it was cancelling the show. Anyone else here from that time to verify? Buckle up, you two, the ride to the end of season 3 is just starting and, as usual, it will be unexpected all the way. ;-)
Yes! Kirk Darling! I just found your post.
Balls to the wall, every episode🤣🤣🤣🤣
"She's right, but this is fucked" is exactly what I would say about this situation.
Whatever you do Don't Watch The Intro to the next Episode. Major Spoilers.
After that its fine
Don't Watch S3 E6 Intro
Not episode six, episode seven.
S3 Episode 7, not 6.
Skip the Intro for Episode 7
I’m with Steven when I started watching this show I taught was going to be Miller finding Julie that’s it. But damn this going to far that I expected
10:55 That’s a good one. I’m going to write that down. Thank you.
Have you noticed the VR app "The Rocinante Experience" before? It lets you walk around the Rocinante plus a few other show locations. I thought you might be interested. :)
This episode and next best of season 3 imo. Although rest of season 3 is still amazing.
Aaah me thinks that the end of the season is mindblowingly amazing
The hybrids have been launched toward Mars, by Adm. Nguyen (a Vietnamese name pronounced like "win"), and "the work" on Venus WAS Eros before Miller convinced Julie to alter Eros' trajectory toward Earth.
Spoilers?!?
SOON ... WORK ... FINISHED
Holden: They launched the hybrids.
Nikki: Oh, shit. Oh, shit! Oh, SHIT! OH, SHIT!!!
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
This is one of the best episodes of the entire series, but 3x6 is top of my list, hands down. Then it starts to get bonkers in the best possible way. Enjoy, guys.
Yes, the reason many people (myself included) like the phrase "Game of Thrones in space" is all the factions fighting and stabbing each other in the back constantly, while only our heroes have their eye on the rising menace of the White Walkers, sorry Protomolecule.
But very much unlike GoT, thing never goes on season after season. The Expanse is changing/evolving all the time, and a situation that look like it might last the rest of the season is gone with a snap next episode as the show moves on to new levels of insanity.
It gets better. Season 3 was the bomb!
The more I watch you guys the more I think I’m like Nikki. Taking notes etc. used to think I was a dude like Steven just being like “whoa this is intense!” But no. Taking notes just like you Nikki. Keep on keeping on guys and thank you for what you do.
I luv watching all ur reactions especially the ending of episodes makes me feel better how much I binge watched dis show
Can't wait to see what you think of the next one. One moment in particular I think you'll enjoy.
In control? Control is an illusion... the proverbial genie is out of the bottle. Humanity is on the doorstep of the greatest precipice in all of history.
Top5 of all times and they still haven't seen the biggest twists.
Great reaction! Hang on to your butts...this ride is just getting started! :)
Here we go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Next episode.......
soon Soon SOON SOON SOOON!!
The escalation continues!!!!
Ohhh just wait for season 4 haha.
This episode is SO reminiscent of Babylon 5 where Earthforce arrives to take command of the station.
My favorite part of the is the back half of season 3 starting with episode 7. I can wait until you get there. That’s all I’ll say. “Mineo”
I thought the whole Ganymede/Io story was not really that good. But after that it gets really good again.
You are not prepared...
The actress for the Martian captain is incredible. She has a minor role and was able to become someone truly memorable. Anyway, next episode is one of the best of the series.
Hurry up and do the next one!!!🤣🤣
You have seen nothing yet. " You know nothing, John Snow"
Such a thrilling show. Shame that it now looks like they're most likely gonna have to re-cast Alex. Hope it doesn't affect the show.
We're trying to keep this info out of the reacter' comments so it doesn't affect their experience. Please consider editing that part out.
I still don’t know why SyFy cancelled this show. Thank god amazon picked it up. Maybe it cost too much to produce. SyFy was sitting on a gold mine
$$$$
Who else was there the F tooth fairy. Brilliant line
Somebody please let them know that they need to skip the intro in certain future episode of this season.
I suggested that near the end of rhe previous season... to begin skipping it from ep 3-5. They probably didnt see my post, but I'm sure others told them already though... if not, it may be too late now since probably they've already watched like 2 eps in advance.
I love episode 7 probably one of my favorite from the entire show
Why?
@@samsavc123 there is a spoiler in the intro
@@sgecko7 Right... They just skip intro, and it will be OK... :)
I had hate and love like feeling for naomi.. she will always be in that category for me ....
