Unless he somehow comes back in the final book, which I find unlikely, he is gone for good. I suppose they could also change things in the show, but that would be a dramatic departure to just not have someone stay dead.

Miller and all the other people the protomolecule ate were basically trapped in hell and Miller used his brief period of autonomy to free everyone from their life of eternal torture. he wanted to be and is dead.

Wes Chatham kills it as Amos, and if the show was able to depict Belters as they're described in the book he would be even more perfect. There's nothing that is really supposed to stand out about him. He's not overly tall for an Earther, probably right around 6' give or take a few inches, and he's not insanely ripped or anything, he's just well built with some fat on him. Like someone else said, an NFL lineman, although I picture him more as a retired lineman, he should have a poo poo load of muscle but he doesn't look like he spends any time in the gym.

if they do depict the Churn I feel like it will be next season, it's going to have lots of Amos-centric content in it and I think they might slip some Churn flashback content in there.

At least it isn't as bad as Ad Astra. Guy kills a whole crew so he can tell his dad that they are both pieces of poo poo and then more people die or something. That movie sucked rear end way more than Interstellar.

Ad Astra had a Space Monkey. so better.

Amazon recently released all of Utopia at once. There doesn't seem to be any reasoning for it. Maybe if they know the show is good they'll spread it out. Amazon also made a weekly aftershow for The Boys so I'm not sure why they don't have one for The Expanse. Get Adam Savage to host and geek out with the actors and writers.

just noticed that Chandra's actress was in the first episode of the Boys, she plays Hughie's exploded girlfriend.

I can't imagine it would ever happen, but if it turned out Wes was a sex pest I don't think I could regain faith in humanity.

He's a pro follow on Instagram by the way.

i would just about die. be good, wes!

those of you who are confused about Amos and his background, just go get the Churn ebook or audio book. it's really short and they are both very cheap. i know, you shouldn't have to rely on stuff from outside the show to understand the show, but it's a really quick study.

Yeah I had no idea Cas’ actor had all that poo poo going on. That sucks rear end. My first thought was, drat good thing it’s not Amos or people would melt down.

what got me is that it had been going on for years, like, when i first heard about it i dug into some old posts on forums and social media and there were anecdotes about him going back like 2-3 years. he had been at it for a while. i think there were some posts on SA about it recounting rumors that had been circulating at various cons. it took a critical mass of public accusations before anyone took it seriously.
