would almost bet, they will start promoting it right after The Boys ends next week. their ad campaigns seem to run about a month. if they start on nov 6 and release 3 then 1 a week, would end right before Christmas.
but don't know if that would be a good week to release anything

Niiiiice!
Listen, if weekly releases make the show more popular/generate buzz, fuck it. It's a small sacrifice for a great show!

Yeah, not a big fan of weekly episodes, but I'll probably watch this week to week. I like the show too much to wait.

It worked for The Boys. The viewership skyrocketed. I am guessing they want to see if that rubs off on The Expanse as well.

I hope, but I'm not very optimistic. Season 4 was garbage, unless they brought in a whole new writing crew and change direction, I think we've seen the best days already in season 1-2.

I hated the book season 5 is presumably based off as well. The crew spits up and 200 pages are wasted on pointless character stories that accomplish nothing except for another cliff hanger in the last like 10 pages. Fuck that entire waste of time.

I loved it, everything after Ilus in the books has been amazing. Ilus was fine but... idk, slow, disconnected. The distance from Earth really takes Ilus out of the thick of things.
I'm actually ok with them experimenting with release schedules. Dumping episodes all at once seems to make a lot of shows forgettable. And there's no lag time to discuss, theorize, etc. Like, if they'd dropped all of Twin Peaks S3 at once it would have sucked, you'd be theorizing about shit in E5 that is solved in E12 you just don't know yet, but all the catass retards in the world who stayed up till midnight and watched them all in one sitting would. I kind of like how Raised by Wolves was doing it a couple at a time, I feel like that's more of a consumable amount without the blueballs you get with network tv's standard 43 minutes per show per week.

Yea but when all the theories turn out to be inconsequential because they ignore everything and just do something retarded....

Or it's based on a book series which already has wiki plot spoilers for a few seasons in advance. If episodes are an hour long I don't mind weekly, but if they start trying to do weekly for any 20-30 minute series there's going to be a huge backlash.
The Boys also did 3 eps up front, which is a bit different than singles the whole way through.
