I really enjoy THE EXPANSE. There's interpersonal drama, political intrigue, social commentary, and pretty good (real) science all around, but something that irks me is the language difference between the Belters and the Dusters. The Belters have been in space for a shorter time than the Dusters and have already evolved their own language and culture while the Dusters haven't despite having a head start of many decades to a century. I know that new people are always moving to Mars but everyone seems to have held onto their original accent even with 300 years of family history on the planet. I haven't read the books, so maybe there's something in them that is different from the show on this point, but it's a jarring departure from the rest of the well-envisaged world to hear Martians speaking in multiple accents and perfect English while the Belters don't. Anyway... I welcome your thoughts and whether you're a fan or not you might enjoy this:

Yes I just started the latest season. It's pretty cool. Love the world-building and the realism of course. If I hadnt watched SpaceX land on the space station recently, Im not sure what my reaction wouldve been to the similar slight jets of gas/air used by the space suits and spacecraft. Obviously the separation of the three cultures (yeah I know about the confusing realism of the Belter language) and different gravities too.
My only complaint is the pacing of the show at times. It can really drag
BSG one of my most favourite scifi shows, if not the utmost, never felt like it dragged but the Expanse is pretty frakin good
Oh and Amos is a badass rockstar! Been a while since Ive seen such a cool character
