    Yeah my excitement dropped considerably when I read the article after the headline made it seem like a done deal. I did like reading that Bezos is a fan though.

    that was a decent "reset" episode]

    if amos turns out to be gay it wouldn't bother me, but it would seem kind of forced

    This season has made me want to re-read the earlier books.

    For those who like the show - i think amazon is having a really good deal on them. Like 10 bucks a book i think


    Or I can send you an e-version

    It's funny how cancelling the show got it more publicity than SyFy could ever dream of. I'm glad they took a chance and got the ball rolling, am more glad Amazon's gonna take it to the next level. If it follows the books, the scope is gonna become pretty massive.

    Im not sure how the business side all works, but hopefully they get a bigger budget.

    The show is excellent for Syfy standards. Hopefully they can make it even better now that it's on amazon

    I have a very bad feeling that Drummer is going to replace Sam from the books on the Behemoth. Especially since Ashford is her XO.

    I think I read somewhere that the only ad revenue was from live Syfy viewers, which seems almost too dumb to believe

    I've never seen an episode live (and I've seen every episode). In this day and age, that wouldn't be very smart.

    Oh man that was great. I hate to be the guy always talking about the books but man they are doing such a good job by them.

    This is great. Everything is great

    Listening to The Churn podcast. Sounds like Bezos whipped his big amazon dick out and forced the deal through. Was at a science conference and at the beginning of it, told the show writer nothing was done yet. 45 min later he made the announcement it was a done deal.

    Chaplain character pisses me off. Her naivety is annoying and bores me.

    Also the eventual "Bobbi vs the other two" is gonna be whack imo

    Does Amazon release all eps in one day like Netflix or is it a weekly release?

    Great finale, I honestly thought Drummer was going to die.

    It's too bad they didn't have enough time to develop Ashford into the detestable psycho he is in book 3.

    I think it allowed Miller to be there outside the ring. Inside he didn't need it. Sound right?

    Yeah the Protomolecule that was in the Roci was like a little relay station with bad reception, once they were inside the ring his signal/presence was much stronger.

    It would have been infuriating, but at the same time a cool open ended finale.

    They chewed through a book and a half this season to finish the first trilogy. Pretty cool.

    Not a spoiler, but a change from the books to the show that was pretty cool

    I liked how they had Diogo be the one who used the mech armour to attack the Roci instead of Clarissa. They changed up her path a bit, but that scene in the books was crazy, so Im glad that made that little nod to it in the show

    I would be ok with that being the end of Diogo. He's a creepy little shit that is way too believable in his role.

    Do you have cable or a cable login? Can stream directly from SyFy website.

    Edit: I guess not. Last five are there for free. Have to buy them on Amazon for now at $2.99 an episode.
