The Expanse 4x10 Reaction

Yeah I think that's fair. I just feel like a lot of 18 years old I know also have that same petulant attitude lol. Mainly the way Filip conducts himself and speaks makes him feel a bit older to me. He always reminded me of Diogo, who was 19.

Jasai may look older than Filips 15, so you’re probably right about them never specifying because of the perfect casting, but I never felt that he was 18 in the show. He may have look a bit older than a average 15yr old, most “teenagers” on tv do, but he definitely has that mid teens petulant attitude that made me believe he was younger than 18.

Haha, True!!

I love David Strathairn so much!! He is in so many great movies also, for example A League of their Own, 8 Men Out, Good Night and Good Luck, We Are Marshall. (I loved that movie so much, I had to make time to visit Marshall University in West Virginia just to see the place where that story happened) and Lincoln! So many I missed too! Worth watching some of those.

Agreed 100%. Not to mention Naomi has a very weak storyline in CB where she just spends nearly the entire book captured. I thought the show made some great decisions like having her come down to Illus to experience a planet and adjusting the Belter storyline so that she could have the connection with Lucia. I think it led to some of the best scenes of the season.

He's 15 in the books, but I'm not sure if that's still the case in the show. He doesn't really look or sound 15, and overall seems a bit more mature than the book version. They've changed other characters' ages from book to show before, and I feel like they did so here too. I think their guess here that he's about 18 is more or less correct for the show. Plus Jasai Chase Owen's was in his mid-twenties here, and doesn't really pass for 15 (especially in the future where he should probably appear more youthful, if anything). I think the show avoided specifying an age, mostly because of the (perfect) casting. Of course you very well may be correct though and it's a fairly moot point in the scheme of things, but personally I have always felt like they aged him up some.

Varun Laks

It’s never stated in the show but Filip is currently about 15. And Naomi had him when she was 18/19.

Oh forgot to say, that sometimes i hear what you;re predicting for the future storylines and im starting to think that there's no way that you have not been spoiled. Some of your predictions are amazingly spot on, and maybe it's because when i was watching my mind never went there, and it's amazing to see that you predicted correctly so many things. Keep em coming.

You girls will love season 5 definitely. And i'm willing to bet it will be Lola's favorite (maybe even Milena's).

AlexBoss

Regarding ages, don't forget that their life expectancy is way higher. Someone who looks like they're in their early 40s in our time has lived about half their expected life span, while in The Expanse, half an expected life span is 60. You can probably safely assume that each character's age is 50% higher than their actor's age. Season 4 is such a huge improvement over the corresponding book story. Almost the entire book was the story on Ilus. Elvi spent half the book with a stupid schoolgirl crush on Holden. Everything on Mars, Earth, and Medina Station happen behind the scenes, so the whole "Mars is dying" concept doesn't even come up until the end. Ashford isn't around because his character was just a 1-dimensional villain from the third book. The show version set up such a smooth transition to the next storyline. You can clearly see how everything from previous seasons built up to this.

Also 70 whole episodes (so far) of the Ty and That Guy podcast, but they may want to wait until after they finish the show to watch those.

Worth going back to 15:55 of the reaction to see who is in the doorway and left the bomb and called Bobbie a b***ch.

Ashford is probably my favorite character, sad to see him go (again), but his story was so good. I'm glad you girls enjoyed season 4. Nothing can ever top season 3 (or maybe...?) But as you can see, the Amazon era of the Expanse is making some great content. I loved all the political and moral stories we saw in this season Season 5 is going to be incredible. Sure it has Amos in it so maybe thats why people are saying it will be Lola's favorite, but just the setting and all of the events that will happen in that season are reason enough for me to believe you girls will enjoy it as much as or even more than season 4. Just know going into season 5 that season 6 is kind of the ending for season 5, or at least a continuation. So in a way, you're already in the last season (Sorry!) But you two will love it.

Alexander Shirkov

In the books - Avasaral was actually counting on Holden to screw up so she could prove her point about delaying colonization. She was annoyed with Holden.

Stuart Weiss

Just FYI, Wes Chatham is also in The Help and in the Hunger Games (last 2 ones I believe!) If you need your fix Lola!!

DrEEsky

Im gonna say you're both right about how much you'll love season 5. There are moments to laugh about for sure. Not as many as season 3 with ABC, but theyre there. But if you want the incredibly heavy drama that comes from years of buildup with characters you are madly in love with, season 3 just didnt have time for that like season 5 does because they were busy cramming in the excitement of a whole book and a half into it. Also, one or two of the episodes have content warnings for nudity and Im not going to say it's because of Amos but Im also not not going to say it's because of Amos.

Ken Hendel

Ashford was originally scheduled to only be in S3. The actor (David Strathairn) enjoyed being in the show so much, he asked the producers if they thought it was probable for Ashford to stick around for another season. When you have an actor as talented as Strathairn you say, “of course!”

T. Arnold Ferguson

well, you entertained me for a whole hours so i'm grateful on the other hand i still had tears in my eyes from ashford's death when a group of 10 teenagers arrived so it's not all wins for me. this season, while not as action packed as the previous season, was amazing for me too. i have to admit though that i hated murtry so much that some episodes i had to pause it because i wanted to punch something. s5 and s6 are incredible. can't wait for you to watch them. and i agree, filip's casting was on point, he does look like he could be naomi and marco's son. marco is indeed a very beautiful man, what a pity he's a piece of shit.
