The Expanse 3x13 full-length reaction
🕑 Added 2025-10-17 15:57:02 +0000 UTCWatched on: Prime (UK)
For copyright reasons, full-length reactions don't include the show or movie footage, so you'll need your own copy to watch along with me. Ideally, you'll need two screens or two browser windows. One for the reaction, and the other for the show you're watching. Using your phone is also viable to watch one of them.
As many different streaming services in different countries often play trailers or recaps before the show starts, the easiest way I've found to sync up footage is to find the first RECOGNISABLE frame (ie. not a black screen) of the episode. Don't worry, I'll show you the frame to look for at the beginning of each full-length reaction!
This will be:
✨The first frame of the opening credits.✨
OR
✨The first frame of the cold open.✨
Once you've found the approximate frame on your copy, pause it. Next, play the reaction and you'll see a countdown timer at the end of the intro and when the show is about to start. Press "play" on your copy when the timer reaches 0:00.
A small (but muted) portion of the show will stay on the screen to allow you to properly sync up your copy if you need to adjust it. The easiest way to eliminate any small discrepancies between the two is to rapidly pause and unpause the video that's ahead until both are running simultaneously.
Note: Some of my older shows might have the first frame after the opening credits.

Yeah, Ashford is doing what he thinks is right. On the not listening to reason thing; maybe he thinks that Holden isn't listening to reason - it's a bit too easy with how they show it to fall into the trap of just saying he's the bad guy and moving on - and in fact a lot of characters in the show are like that, they can be quite complex and maybe come over as the bad guy, but also have completely valid points (in fact it's almost a trope of the show). We don't even know at this point if he's even right or not - sure, Holden stops the immediate threat, but Ashford does say his position isn't about the immediate threat. I think there's also an element of going out in a blaze of glory that clouds his judgement a little bit too, but.. If Amazon didn't pick up the show this is the point it would have ended, or put another way, if Jeff Bezos wasn't (famously) a fan of the books it would have ended :) The campaign to have them pick it up was massive and was fairly unprecedented in the fact it actually worked. Producers of the world, please stop fully giving up your rights, learn from The Expanse - or at least make sure there's a "if you cancel the show, you lose the show" clause in there. Drummer is a fan favourite - she's actually an amalgam of several characters from the books that they combined into her character so she has a lot of different roles that actually all work well together. She was a fan of the show in the first season and IIRC did open casting and got the role - and it seems like the producers really liked her and decided to do that. I think that's part of the reason why fans like her, because she was fan first and is seen somewhat as a representative of the fans almost.
