    The Expanse roundup- inside the premiere videos, set tour, origin comics and #1 on itunes

    Inside The Expanse videos for the two episode premiere. Episode 1:



    Highlights from the video:
    [Spoiler (click to open)]They ad-libbed a lot in the Roci lasagna scene. The cast were welcoming to Frankie (they misspelled 'Bobbie' in the video), she didn't even feel like she looked like herself, she looked so scary. They talk about Frankie's physicality being perfect for the role. Frankie is usually the youngest on set, so she loves Bobbie's leadership here.

    the lasagna scene was a great opportunity for the cast to reconnect after the hiatus and a great opportunity for the characters to bond in a way they haven't so far. Miller is like the uninvited uncle that won't leave the couch, an outsider. Amos initially doesn't have a problem with Miller, it's Miller who has a problem with him. Miller has made it clear that he's gonna disrupt the harmony of Amos' new family with his anger over Amos killing his partner, so Amos wants to get that out of the way to remove that energy out of the group.

    Amos believes he's not capable of really distinguishing between right and wrong, but he cares enough to attach himself to people he believes are good. In S1 it's only Naomi, but in S2 Holden has gained Amos' respect and trust, so he's another person Amos can follow. It will cause issues in the end of the season- Amos trusts both Holden and Naomi, what happens when they tell Amos to do different things?


    Inside The Expanse video for Episode 2:



    Highlights from the video:
    [Spoiler (click to open)] Ty and Daniel wrote the episode and it included some scenes from the book that were their favorites, including the massive space battle that doesn't follow the general space battles we've seen on Star Wars or Star Trek. The battle is more strategic, changing velocity and finding places to hide. They talk about combining live action with incredible visual effects. They talk about the scene Amos gets slammed around- Wes kinda loves getting banged around, he was in the Navy and loves the physical side of things. Miller becomes more idealistic and finds something to believe in in Julie, while Holden loses that idealism and becomes more gray and a realist. Miller thinks killing Dresden is the right thing to do, while Holden thinks they need him, so they've sacrificed people and put themselves in harm's way for nothing now and are back to square one.


    More behind a cut.

    Tatiana Maslany to miss this years Emmys thanks to late Orphan Black premiere date

    BBC America has set a date for the final season of Orphan Black: June 10.

    Unfortunately for Tatiana Maslany, a return trip to the Emmy stage won't be happening this year, as the premiere is too far past the May 31st cutoff date for eligibility. She joins Game of Thrones as a big winner from last year who will not be in contention this year thanks to later-than-usual premieres.

    Celebs react to todays political news (DeVos and Rule 19 on Senator Warren)

    Literally like an hour ago Turtle Man invoked Rule 19 on Senator Warren cause she was reading a letter from Coretta Scott King about her opposition to Jeff Sessions (who will be voted on tomorrow). McConnell told Senator Warren to sit down and be quiet. Republicans voted that Senator Warren has "impugned" a Senator, which means she can no longer talk about Jeff Sessions on the Senate floor.

    They also confirmed dumbass DeVos for Secretary of Education.

    Riverdale's Ross Butler (Reggie) Talks about Breaking Asian Stereotypes

    rossbutler

    On challenges faced when auditioning at the beginning of his career: "This is something that has been a core of me as an actor, ever since I [became one]. We're a very underrepresented population in Hollywood, but we are the majority population of the world. It's a weird dichotomy that we have here. It's starting to get better and we are starting to see more Asians in roles, but we're not seeing a lot of Asians playing roles [that are] not specifically written for Asians. So when I first started out, I was being sent on auditions for "the geek," "the techie." Let's be honest guys, I don't look like a techie.
