'The Expanse' Canceled at Syfy
I'm really pissed off about this. It was a really good show, based on a good series of books. It's very rare to see <i>hard</i> sci-fi in television, much less one appealing to a wide audience. Also the VFX team deserves a shout out here, as they managed to keep almost all visual effects physically accurate, including sneaking in scientific details at points you wouldn't ordinarily notice (like things heating up far behind invisible drive plume, sparks moving correctly on a spinning station or inside a maneuvering ship, etc.).<p>From what I hear, the last hope is for Amazon to pick it up. Netflix apparently is not interested. If this show gets cancelled, this will be a <i>huge</i> blow to both sci-fi on TV, and efforts to keep people interested in realistic space exploration.
