Episode Guide
Fight or Flight IFF Assured Destruction Reload Triple Point Immolation Delta-V It Reaches Out Intransigence Dandelion Sky Fallen World Congregation Abaddon’s Gate Following the climactic ending to Season 2, The Expanse’s third season sees all hell break loose as war erupts across the solar system. Fresh from their gunfight on-board the Martial vessel, Avasarala (Shohreh Aghdashloo) and Bobbie (Frankie Adams) desperately seek refuge and eventually find it aboard the Rocinante where the crew continue to struggle with Naomi’s (Dominique Tipper) betrayal after giving Fred Johnson (Chad L. Coleman) and the Belters the proto-molecule sample. With many of the main protagonists converging on-board The Rocinante, caught in the middle of a war built on lies, the first half of the season pushes the Proto Molecule to the background in favour of the bitter rivalry between Earth and Mars. Around the middle of the season, a seismic shift in focus sees a more methodically paced, cerebral danger come to the foreground as a phenomena involving the Proto Molecule sees the crew of the Rocinante wind up at the literal epicentre of the strange occurrence. Still, the harsh, bleak nothingness of space has never looked so beautiful with various frigates, rockets and space stations filling up the sky and shown off with a dizzying array of impressive camera angles. The lighting is generally on point throughout the season too and early on there’s some snippets of the ensuing battle between the Martians and Earthlings that helps to act as a pay off for some of the built up tension last year. The second half of the season feels very different in tone too and some of this is accentuated by the dominated use of cold, blue colours echoing the alienating mood radiating through many of the remaining 6 or 7 episodes.
