[–] wildcardology@lemmy.world 40 points 2 years ago (3 children) The Expanse, people keeps recommending it and I kept ignoring it thinking it was the Extant. I hope it gets picked up again. permalink fedilink source hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] mindlight@lemm.ee 9 points 2 years ago (1 child) Just finished the last season of For All Mankind yesterday and it can be seen as a sort of prequel to The Expanse. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Voroxpete@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago* Yeah, by Season 4 of FAM I was definitely thinking the same thing.

So they could just give his little arc with his family to someone else. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Dasus@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago This for sure.
