I can't freaking wait, they all look so good.

p.s- op, you coming to the expanse post? I was worried about you when I saw you didn't make your usual Into the Badlands post.

Yes!! Apologies for that, this weekend hit me hard with work and I didn't get to watch Samurai Jack, nor watch Into the Badlands live ><; and for the Expanse round-ups I like to listen to the podcasts and watch the videos proper so I can comment better =) I'll be doing that tonight hehe, I figured I can listen to the podcast while I work out. I just had no free time to properly enjoy some shows, bah!

No apologies necessary, you don't even have to go to the post, I just selfishly miss chatting with you there, especially since you're one of the few that listens to the podcasts as well, lol. Hope you have a bit more free time now. Samurai Jack is some cartoon, right? I keep hearing that name.

Hehe I miss it too =) I appreciate someone else being as passionate about these things as I am haha! But yeah I'll be getting to that proper tonight, finally (I'm just enjoying some lunch at the moment before I get back to the grind)! I also wanted to know how the ratings have been? >< not sure if I want to know...I saw a recent article about how a S4 might not be possible unless fans can help do something about it =\ bah. Too soon for these thoughts, but yes! I need some Expanse goodness tonight.

Ah yeah =) it's the final chapter of a series that used to air ages ago. It's very beautifully done, both visually and story-telling wise. If you're into cartoons, I'd recommend it easily =P even just watching the final season, I think you'd be okay with no prior knowledge!

Me too, I'm legit obsessed with the show, so having someone else who pours over everything and is as passionate is always great, so I don't feel like the lone freak, lol.

Trust me, you don't want to know about the ratings. They're really terrible and I fear that article is right. I mean, SyFy isn't footing the bill, that's mostly Alcon, so if they make enough money internationally/not through Nielsen and SyFy is ok with paying to stream it on their site, then maybe? But it's been steadily dropping, last three episodes were 0.15 (rounded up to 0.2), 0.13 and 0.11, which are terrible numbers.

What's it about? I'm not 100% into cartoons, they have to be special for me to watch them. Last ones I saw was Young Justice and Avatar/Legend of Korra.

Bah, busy couple of nights here =) I was late with posting next week's promo, so unsure if it got accepted but hopefully someone else may have done so earlier ( ... )

Well, your promo post got accepted hours later.

It really is the best sci-fi show no one is watching and it kills me, this show deserves to at least pull the same numbers as the Magicians. I dunno if the numbers can grow next season, but we have a while to worry about that (and spam the comm and hope more people tune in during the hiatus).

I dunno if I like the animation style, that trailer was interesting, but I think I'll pass for now. I still have to think if I want to try Legion or Into the Badlands.
