While Firefly was the perfect embodiment of the Space Western and the “final frontier” aspect of space travel, this show better represents the Space Noir, and the kind of 1930s-esque political intrigue that is associated with it. ![]() And throughout all of it, we are constantly told about the state of planetary politics, usually through the eyes of Avasarala. Some characters that are central to one season will become irrelevant immediately afterwards, even if they don’t really disappear. ![]() Main characters in some of the seasons die only a few episodes in.

Now together aboard the ship Rocinante, the group has to navigate through the solar system as war breaks out and the universe keeps getting just a little bigger. At the same time, an ice freighter is destroyed by a cloaked ship, resulting in the survivors forming their own crew: James Holden (Steven Strait), the captain Alex Kamal (Cas Anvar), the pilot Naomi Nagata (Dominique Tipper), the engineer and Amos Burton (Wes Chatham), the mechanic. An investigator, Joe Miller (Thomas Jane), is hired to find her. As the series starts, Mars and Earth are basically on the brink of war and a woman named Julie Mao (Florence Faivre) has gone missing. The Earth, Mars, and the Outer Planets Alliance (Mostly Jupiter and Saturn’s moons) are all constantly at odds, leading Chrisjen Avasarala (Shohreh Aghdashloo) to try and keep the peace on behalf of the UN.
