I also thought the very first 30 seconds of the first episode set the context very well (and without understanding that, there's perhaps no way their younger viewers are going to understand what happened and why/how).
Interesting that this alleged "OJ knife" is currently in the news, as the show airs.
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
I have just binge watched the first season of the Expanse and while being quite a demanding hard sci-fi fan I must say the show is possibly the best sci-fi I watched in the last few years. What makes it stand out is technological realism - entire action happens in the solar system, so no need for physics bending engines or far-too-human-like alien proxies.
Where it lacks a bit is social realism - it seems tv-show writers/producers nowadays can't imagine (or allow) anything other than a linear social progress in their works. I will most likely be reading the original book series as it got me curious.
The good news is there will be Season 2 airing in February:
I think this is the most realistic social future I watch the series every day on Fox & CNN.
I have started the new Dirk Gently's holistic detective agency. Huge fan of the books, keeping an open mind on the changes of characters and venue (Dirk could not be more different to the books) but so far so good.
