Come on Netflix! This show is such a hidden gem. It needs a company that can really push it and make it as good as it can be.

The world of the show and books is such a great look at a possible not long off future. A lot of sci-fi is much further ahead or not as far.

I guess Netflix might be interested. They already have broadcasting rights for The Expanse for a lot of regions outside of the US.

And they really are in need of something to put against a GOT-scale series based on the Tolkien universe over at Amazon's Primevideo service, which will definitely start streaming around 2019/2020.

I know! However, I'm not keeping my hopes up since I assume Netflix would want full exclusive rights to stream it forever if they were to fund it and it seems like the company that owns those rights Alcon Entertainment is unwilling to give that up.
