      I'm half way through the season... It is really spectacular.

      We really enjoyed it. Good cast too.

      The setting is amazing, the acting is something else entirely. I haven't felt like someone was off cue or that they were in front of a green screen yet in the season. Top notch for a science fiction series.

      I enjoyed it as well although I agree the acting wasn't great in some places

      I think he was saying that the acting was really good.

          I didn't interpret it that way

            I can tell, but read it again.

              You misunderstood. I haven't seen a point in the first 5 episodes where the actors weren't on point. The only problem I have seems to be the personality disconnect between Kovacs prime (when he was on Harlan's World) and Kovacs when he was on Earth. Granted it's been 250 years so that may be part of it.

                      Having two different actors playing the same character I can imagine would be difficult. But Kovacs prime hasn't suffered the loss the Kovacs Earth has so part of me thinks it was intentional.

                            Some of the actors nailed it. The hotel was my favorite character. I also thought Joel Kinnaman did a great job. Ortega was inconsistent. She had good scenes and she had bad scenes in my opinion. There were also some side characters that didn't play their roles well, yet others again nailed it. Don't want to give away plot points for such a new show so I can't give real examples.

                              I'm half way through the season... It is really spectacular.

                              We really enjoyed it. Good cast too.

                              The setting is amazing, the acting is something else entirely. I haven't felt like someone was off cue or that they were in front of a green screen yet in the season. Top notch for a science fiction series.

                              I enjoyed it as well although I agree the acting wasn't great in some places

                              You misunderstood. I haven't seen a point in the first 5 episodes where the actors weren't on point. The only problem I have seems to be the personality disconnect between Kovacs prime (when he was on Harlan's World) and Kovacs when he was on Earth. Granted it's been 250 years so that may be part of it.

                              I saw that too. Can't tell what was intentional or not.

                              Having two different actors playing the same character I can imagine would be difficult. But Kovacs prime hasn't suffered the loss the Kovacs Earth has so part of me thinks it was intentional.

                              I don't think it's intentional, but when you finish the show we will have an interesting conversation for sure. I don't want to accidentally give away any pieces of the story so I'm just going to wait.

                              I've finished it and have no idea where you saw acting problems.

                              Some of the actors nailed it. The hotel was my favorite character. I also thought Joel Kinnaman did a great job. Ortega was inconsistent. She had good scenes and she had bad scenes in my opinion. There were also some side characters that didn't play their roles well, yet others again nailed it. Don't want to give away plot points for such a new show so I can't give real examples.

                              Ortega is an emotional character throughout the show. Which makes sense with the things happens around her.

                                Yeah, but I mean inconsistent in the sense that she is sometimes a good actor and sometimes not. Just my opinion

                                    Have you read the books for the Expanse? How does the show compare if yes?

                                      Unfortunately I have not read the books. I probably will though.
