Hello /c/sciencefiction lemmies. I've put together an image of some of the most discussed shows from July 2023.

Are there any science fiction TV series you are currently in the middle of watching or plan on watching in August?

I just started The Expanse and also just learned it got cancelled. I'm hoping by the time i finish it it'll be picked back up.

It was canceled by Syfy, but then picked back up by Amazon. I haven't finished it myself yet but I'm pretty sure they ended the show. That's different from getting cancelled.

The problem is that the show ends before the end in the books. There's still material for other 3 seasons I think.

There is, but the challenge is 30 years passes where they left off at the end of Babylon's Ashes and before Persepolis Rising starts. They really rushed Babylon's Ashes too since they knew they were getting cancelled.

That being said I REALLY want them to finish out the show. It's so good.

It didn't get cancelled. They planned to finish it there.

Yeah they really rushed through babylon's ashes. But still we got the amazing fights of rocinante v zameya and rocinante v pella. Both of them are one the best space battles on TV Screen. And my only complaint with both of them is how quickly they ended. But still the chill you get once roci starts spinning and PDCs firing it's just alone is worth it to watch the whole show.

There's also the weird thing that Alex is supposed to live and they killed him off. I really hope one day they will take their time to finish the show without rush.

The Actor sexually harassed a LOT of fans.

And so they canned him after it went public.

Honestly I'm not remembering anything in particular Alex did in the later seasons so probably it's not a massive problem.

I know, it's aweful. Anyway I still have to read the last book.

[–] Cmot_Dibbler@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Oh really? Well that's great.
