The Expanse Season Two

SCORE: 55

The core concept behind The Expanse is interesting. After watching season two of this television show I have plenty of thoughts to share. Please note there will be spoilers all throughout this review. The Expanse Season Two deals with Earth, Mars, and the Belt. The Belt feels like they are third class citizens, and are taken for granted. Earth and Mars have some battles in The Expanse Season Two. The Belters are the ones who wind up suffering the most.

The Expanse Season Two is very tribal. Earth does not like or trust Mars. Mars feels the same way about Earth. We have Martians wanting war with Earth, and people from Earth wanting war with Mars. The Belters want independence and feel like they are treated like property. People from Earth and Mars will quickly kill anyone from the other tribe or anyone that threatens their tribe. The same goes for the Belters. The lessons about tribes wanting to destroy one another are very strong in The Expanse Season Two.

The proto-molecule does all kinds of crazy things within The Expanse Season Two. The Eros station and asteroid it is on starts moving of its own free will. Well technically the dead girl from the previous season is moving it. The proto-molecule is doing what she wants. Joe Miller goes to persuade her to to crash into Venus instead of Earth. It looks like they may have died. There are some hints near the end of The Expanse Season Two that they may still be alive. We will see in the future.

The issues families will have with The Expanse Season Two are violence, blood, bad language, lack of attire, enticement to lust, sex outside of marriage, evolution, nudity, and more. The Expanse Season Two got me thinking about science fiction. Why is there so much bad content in science fiction television shows? Why can’t we have a more clean science fiction show? Like the books I wrote under the Future Glimpses umbrella. Where are the clean science fiction television shows?

The proto-molecule supposedly comes from some alien destination. The Expanse Season Two does not really prove that though. It is more of a theory that is just accepted by others. There are other possible explanations that The Expanse Season Two does not even acknowledge. Amos continues to be a blood thirsty psychopath in The Expanse Season Two. I will probably watch a few more seasons since they are so short and see where this story goes. The Expanse Season Two is only thirteen episodes.
