Spoilers The Expanse Season 5
- Thread starter KennyB
- Start date
Here's hoping. I knew they'd released Ryan, but haven't Man in The High Castle. I hadn't thought about Good Omens, but that hit normal tv here fairly quickly too.
Given that Prime is an ondemand streaming service and the shows can accessed at anytime (and being prime exclusives won't go elsewhere) I'm sort of suprised that Amazon would go effort and cost of releasing physical media.
As I mentioned above, physical releases are a convenient enough promotional tool, buy a current season of one of their shows on DVD/Blu-ray, and if you like it, subscribe to their service to see the new season. Indeed, I would assume that's the logic behind Netflix and CBS All Access releasing many of their exclusives on physical media. Though in the case of Netflix they wait a while after the show streams, a couple years in some cases.
Hope there is a blu-ray release also - as I always like watching the features too with certain shows.
In the past day or so, Twitter has started blowing up with stories about Cas Anvar being a predatory sleaze (at best) towards female fans, including teenagers. No official statement from the show yet, though there's an unofficial one from James S. A. Corey's account:

"Yes. I am aware of the thing. I have sent along all of the information I have about the thing to the people who have the power to make decisions. I can not comment on the thing until they've had time to do their due diligence and release an official response. Thank you."
Here are some representative examples of what people have been saying was done to them. You can search for more, and I'm sure the news sites will start publishing stories soon, if they haven't already.

Shit, that's terrible. He always comes off as such a likable guy, but sweet shit. What a sad and disappointing thing to learn.
Ugh, oh no. Well, these cases are "alleged". I feel bad for these young women and if proven, this will certainly affect my enjoyment of what is up till now, the best sci-fi show on TV.
RAMA
RAMA
Sad and terrible, if it's true. Doesn't look good from what's been going around.
Wonder with Season 5 already filmed, if reshoots could be on order or if he'd be recast or written out for Season 6 and beyond.
I don't know the books and storylines ahead, but my vote would go to Bobbie Draper for new Pilot and permanent crew member.

I got a 99p week-long trial subscription to Amazon Prime just to get caught up with Season 4. So looking forward to where The Expanse goes from there!
Honestly, I think they'll just have to bite the bullet and keep him in the fifth season. Even under optimal circumstances doing reshoots with Alex removed or recast would be tricky at this stage, but in these Corona Times? Not going to happen. Especially given this show films in Toronto, one of the hardest hit places by Corona.
Whatever they decide to do with him is going to have to wait until season 6.
While I could certainly get behind the idea of her becoming one of the Rocinante's permanent crew, she's not a pilot, and I don't recall it ever being mentioned in the show or books that she has any piloting skill.
She's good at everything
She flew the little speedy Razorback ship saving Avasarala
True but she’s not the great Michael Burham.She's good at everything

Looking forward to season 5. Curious to see where the story goes
This is a damn bummer.
My guess is that if it's all true (and it sounds depressingly plausible), and the show is renewed for a sixth season, Alex will be recast rather than ditched. There's precedent for this on the show, with the recasting of Arjun. But given the role Cas Anvar has played in the fan community and in saving the show from the rubbish heap after its cancellation ... have a hard time imagining the fandom truly recovering from this.

Well that stinks sad stuff if true.
A little shocked at what I'm reading. Been less active here and other sites. Reading some of it now. I always thought Cas was a nice guy.
Bobby's not a good pilot. She even admits it. And this news if true is awful.She's good at everything
