Wow this show fallen so low it has to be renamed to Cringepanse.
No more space dog fights that were giving you goosebumps, no more mysterious plot, only drama and cringe. Avoid it if you liked the first season
Whilst I understand that political theatre is sometimes needed in Sci-fi but there comes a point when it takes over and the show loses the Sci-fi element and it's replaced with a boring episode of The West Wing. Please get back on track with the Sci-fi and explore the microbe/the rings/whoever wiped them out.
Good season and a pretty end to the show (for now) but it really needed more episodes. I don't understand why they only have it 6 when it follows both a very dense heavy book coupled with a completely separate novel, trying to tell both in half the time of a normal season.
I know they are planning on getting the show picked up somewhere else, but things were left a bit too open and unresolved in the final episode, especially in regards to the colony with the alien dogs.
last episode saw in 12h ago
must say that in overal this season wanst that bad
i'm a big fan of this show
the last episode i feel they could have made it longer, it was short and pushed to try to solve everything
the fight action was also to short
sad this might end or not, maybe some other tv channel buy this?
I thought it was good. This entire series had something uniquely different from most shows. Sure it had some of the obligatory wokeness in it, but it was definitely at a minimum. This was fairly good story telling with really strong production values. Acting was really decent especially the belters having to learn a different dialect. They sure did earn their money. Story lines did jump around a bit and made it somewhat hard to follow all the different threads. That's inevitable when you are trying to juggle too many characters, but all in all I thought it was satisfying.
The final was a fairly good way to wrap up the season and perhaps the series... or not??? There were some strange arcs that went nowhere and obviously were to be dealt with at a later time. Specifically the resurrected boy and who ever it was that denied Inaros use of the gate? Some strange decisions there for sure.
If it's done, I'll have no regrets. If it continues I'm sure to be entertained.
Season 5 was going in bad direction. Season 6 got there. I have read all the books and I don't think the show has anything with them anymore. First 3 seasons made me try the books. After I read them I saw how much is missing in the show. If you liked the show even little try the books. You will find wonderful universe with mystery, sci-fi, clever politics and amazing character development. The TV show cut all that.
I'm just to sad that it ended. I think that season 6 was rushed, but It was very good, just short. It's feels bare boned compared to the previous seasons. I will read the books, I guess. But feel so much sadness because I still have to say goodbye to the actors, the crew, the sets. I want so much for some other company to pick this up and continue, but I know that it will probably not going to happen.
A good conclusion to the political drama. But the end was very open, it was clearly rushed.
Seems like someone has lost their faith in the series.
Bummer.
The final season of 'the show that used to be great', trying to resuscitate the TOTAL disaster that was season 5 (apart perhaps from the last episode). Naomi Nagata continues with her selfish bitch "me, me, me, me" attitude (why on earth anyone tried to save her I have no idea, or why she tried to save her spineless dipshit of a son, she should have been spaced in Season 4) and Holden continues down his dewy eyed puppy dog "woe is me" (but hey, I'll put a whole ship at risk to save my girlfriend) pathetic individual track, seriously, these two lead characters are without doubt THE most annoying of the show now, their zero on screen chemistry 'romance' makes it even worse. Totally spoiled the whole series that drops off a cliff after season 3. With their selfish, "my way or the highway" attitude and the (never earned) expectation that everyone just does as they say (Nagata berating Amos for bringing Peaches on board is the peak of her selfishness, given the strokes she's pulled AND been allowed to get away with, on multiple occasions but "that's OK, I'm Naomi" is SOOO annoying, especially when she bottles out of a boarding action). I'm at the early stages of S6 but I really do hope Nagata and Holden end up copping a bullet, neither of them should be even running a burger stand, let alone a Martian gun ship! This is what happens when you try to drag out a show way beyond its sell-by date and replace a sci-fi action thriller with a space based romantic soap opera, especially with the two main actors chosen to pull it off.
Sad that it ended the way it did. Will definitely read the books. I feel there was a lot more for the show-runners to explore, but for their (economic?) reasons they just tried to wrap it up and be done with it.

What do you get when you remove the mystery, fantasy and sci-fi element from this once great series? A soap opera in space with only drama. Another fine example of why series shouldn't continuously extend a beaten to death storyline. A lot of people probably still have love for this series, as do I, but it has become boring and unimaginative. It's not even that it's a bad show. It just doesn't excite me anymore. Not feeling sad about it coming to an end soon.
