If this is the show I'm thinking it is, I watched a couple of episodes last season and I just could not get into it.  I really, really wanted to.  I may try to get back into it.

I'll admit, the first Season is a bit of a slow burn.  Basically, humanity has colonized the solar system.  Earth and Mars are the superpowers, with the people in the asteroid belt (the belters) caught in between them.  There's a third faction out there that is trying to get Earth and Mars into a full scale war...but you don't find out why until the end of the first season.

This is the show that has resurrected the SyFy channel for me.

Is anyone else watching this show?

Pretty good episode.  Finally, Dantooine comes into play.

We get to see the TIE defender...I want one for my collection!

That shot of the Star Destroyers getting damaged by the explosion was prety cool.

I haven't read the comics to know if the Trash People are part of the official story or not, but I just assumed from a TV perspective that they're cannon fodder for the coming war against The Saviors.

They are not a part of the comic nor are the well armed women at the beach.  I wonder how long until they come back i to play.

I wonder how they will bring Heath back...the actor is doing a great job on 24: Legacy.

Is there a Toy Fair thread for this year?  Did anyone from JD go?

I wouldn't mind a couple of Tuskens and a few sandtroopers.  I might pick up a Ponda Baba since I never saw him at retwil, but do not need the Boba Fett, unless it comes with the MaQuarrie concept helmet.

Jesse, I hope you are wrong about the Scarif Trooper...I've only seen one at retail and hope to get more.

I'm glad The Expanse is back!

Watching TFA, Han looks at Rey like he knows her, but I don't think she's Han and Leia's long lost daughter...they would have talked about losing their children and not just their son.

I'm guessing that she's Luke's daughter, mainly because of her connection to Anakin's lightsaber.  There's a theory floating around the internet that Luke is standing over a grave on Ach-to.  I'm not convinced, but it would be interesting if true.

Honestly, I doubt JJ Abrams knows either...I have little confidence in him as a story teller and Lawrence Kasdan is our only hope the trilogy won't suck because of a JJ mystery box.
