Overview
Set in a future where humanity has colonized the Solar System, it follows United Nations under secretary Chrisjen Avasarala, police detective Miller, and ship’s officer Jim Holden and his crew as they unravel a conspiracy that threatens peace across the System and the survival of humanity.
Initially they’re looking for the missing Julie Andromeda Mao, who identifies as pansexual.
They were canceled after 3 seasons before they got more queer ladies (though they had more queer men!). Thankfully they got a save from Amazon Prime. Apparently Bezos really likes the show. They added more queer characters in the seasons produced by Amazon.

As you wander among the sculptures on the sea cliffs this spring, you might experience a work called Rise in Marks Park, the expanse of green room that separates Bondi and Tamarama. Unless you glance closely, you could lose a small plaque on that sculpture and its florid inscription, a concise excerpt from a mother’s lovingly handwritten letter to her son:
Johno, I lose you terribly, the elderly Homestead just isn’t the same when someone is missing especially you.
John Russell was 19 years antique and away working in Queensland when his mother, Pam, wrote that letter in 1977. She couldn’t have known then that, 45 years later, her words would adorn a public sculpture. Nor could she have predicted the terrible events that inspired this monument’s creation. Pam Russell did not inhabit for long enough to learn of the vicious deaths of gay men in the same park, or that her son would be one of them.
John was 31 when, in November 1989, his body was found at the base of a cliff on the Bondi side of Marks Park. Police soon dismissed it as an accidental death, as they had the disappearance four months earlier of another gay bloke, 24-year-old WIN TV newsreader Ross Warren
The Expanse Season 5 Removes A Controversial Romance
The Expanse appears to have dodged a potential bullet by omitting a book romance angle from season 5. In The Expanse's latest run on Amazon Prime, the 4 core characters are split, sent on separate missions during a much-needed split from saving the world. Amos Burton returns to his home city of Baltimore on Land, where he reconnects with the ghosts of his past after learning a loved one has passed away.
Amos' backstory in the opening 3 episodes of The Expanse season 5 incorporates elements of Nemesis Games and a novella called The Churn, which sits alongside the main series. As in the origin material, Amos meets Charles, the widowed husband of Lydia, whose death prompted Amos' return. The Expanse reveals Amos' real specify is Timothy, and when he was a child, Lydia acted as a mother figure to him, pulling the youngster out of bloody street fights and encouraging "Timothy" to be his own man by resisting his violent impulses. The episode shows flashbacks of Lydia mothering a new Timothy, and Charles reveals how she always hoped her adopted child would return to World before she died.

It always takes me a sec to remember Amos is LGBT given the show/author refuse to exhibit him being sexual or sexually intimate with anyone other than women but INSIST JKR style that they have mlm rep in the program because Amos or whatever
Like TPTB shouldn’t be surprised people ship him with Prax (“but that’s his finest friend!”) or Holden (“Holden is straight though”***) or Alex (I have no “arguments” against this ship since Ty has never propped up the perspectives of Alex/Amos haters and once in part spurred fans to attack someone making a joke about Bobbie/Alex and also led to the shippers to thank him for shooting down that not-canon submissive ship for THEIR not-canon compliant ship so what was the point of any of it lmfao*****)
or complain that people are RUINING THE FRIENDSHIPS WHY IS NO ONE APPRECIATING MY FRIENDSHIPS I PUT GAYS RIGHT THERE when the “gays” in question are a) not shown as gay b) die and are never mentioned again or (my favorite) c) are vaguely gay and vanish when the main character leaves the room!!!!
*** I note this because Ty once took time out of his day to inform everyone Holden is 100% straight even though he once said otherwise and al
