It's become the Amos show. Fun but not thought provoking.


Hope they even the score with s6

I'm only through season 2, but Amos has become my favorite character.

he gets to become a bit much in the later seasons

Well, it's back to his old self and it's quite good.

Few of Amos but with great lines is what it was supposed to be.

S06Ep5 had again a nice scene, with Draper ... and usually when there's just a bit of Amos the scenes end being quite deep, in a naive way.

So deep that it's gone to the brothels to make some noise. ;)

Yup, that's Amos, lol

So is Amos & Clarissa just a friends zone thing, cause the last episode made it seem like Amos was having fun without her on Ceres, in between drinking sessions.

Methinks Amos ‘adopted’ her as a surrogate little sister, no physical intimacy desired by eithar of them. Glad they went that way, me.

Ahh kk, good to know. I had become suspicious when he named her Peaches a while back.

The two big highlights of the series for me were Miller finally meeting Julie in S2 and the ring gates opening at the end of S3. Seeing what the protomolecule had done to Julie's consciousness, where she's simultaneously herself and a puppet of the P-molecule, was even more of a trip than seeing what it had done to her body. In S3, when Holden dropped into that alien station guided by the mental hologram of Miller I knew the show was headed to weird and wonderful places. Then the show came back from cancellation and somehow the magic was gone. S4 took place on an alien planet with weird alien technology (and had more Miller, which is always good), but somehow it wasn't as captivating, and in S5 the alien stuff barely appeared at all. This season, the "Strange Dogs" storyline has managed to recapture a little bit of that sense of awe and wonder, but it's confined to a small storyline that probably won't intersect with the main one.

Too bad it went fucking nowhere. Good thing we had that boring little girl in every episode of this already short season...
