People immediately side with Belters against Inners because of the way Belters are treated. However, they fail to consider that the only pictures we get of Inners, especially Earthers, are of those in positions of power and prestige. But as you pointed out, most Earthers have it very rough, at least as bad as Belters in my opinion. Yes, Earthers have free air and water and the government provides them with Basic Assistance. What they don't have, however, is opportunity--no jobs, no income, and no chance to escape from their long and aimless lives. (Except perhaps through crime as alluded to in Amos's conversation with Prax.) In The Expanse, nobody is altogether good or altogether bad. They're all human beings, each possessing a complex range of human strengths and human weaknesses.
A fun fact about Alex from the books. Alex comes from the Mariner Valley on Mars, an area originally settled by East Indians and Texans. That's why Alex looks Indian but speaks with a Texas accent and loves country music.

Season 4, while not my favorite story-wise, has my favorite cinematography and aesthetic out of all of the seasons. There's just an aura around that season that I really love

Milena: "I think Amos can deal with him without chicken."
My mind: "Well technically he did use the chicken?"
Also for some reason "Fuck you, ma'am" is one of my favorite lines from the show.

I'd say that season three is my favorite, but five and six are still wild. The last episode is awesome, too. Like others have said season four slows down a bit, but even then the show is still great.

Bobbie seeing the ocean is one of my favorite scenes. The performance, the lighting and mostly the MUSIC is just chefs kiss

Better Call Saul season 6 starts on Monday so that's going to be weekly for a while

Long discussion for this episode! This arc is what made me love Bobbie. She's up there with my favorite characters. I think I like all the female leads in this show over the guys (except Amos who's a really interesting character).
Do we have new shows planned? Another weekly show would be quite good if you guys can fit it in!
