I think you hit the nail on the head. No source material, shitty product. You 
can't have someone who isn't a novelist come in and finish your life's work in 
a few tv episodes.

The authors of the Expanse series have already made it clean that when they are 
done catching up to the books, that's it. No more TV show. It's been great so 
far, I hope they don't get bought out with bags and bags of Bezo's money and 
allow them to run in into the ground.
