Now that's how you do a cliffhanger


Several lives hanging in the balance. Nyx is a goner ( damn that woman was beautiful ) and one of the other members maybe dead too. Looking forward to next year and that preview for The Expanse looked fantastic.

"Everyone dies" cliffhangers stink!

Besides it was predictable as hell that the space station would blow up.

I still think it was a great episode in spite of this, but it would have been so much better without it.

The way i see it that the station explosion was a lock in the fabric of time meaning no matter how hard they tried to save it, it was bound to be destroyed

Right and annoyingly married in real life too

reply

Her husband must wake up every day pinching himself.

For real she is married? Melanie Lyburd is married? lol

The important question is, what about the Asian ninja guard? Couldn't care less about Nyx but damn... that Asian, woohoo.

reply

Ikr she was smoking hot and damn i wanna see her on board the reza ship all the time and kick ass alot lol

reply

The Asian bodyguard would be a great addition.

Thought this entire episode and the cliffhanger was a perfect execution as to what a cliffhanger should be. Better than TWD's Negan cliffhanger, for sure.

Game of Thrones' The Winds of Winter is how you do a season finale. That's proven by the critical reception, the 10 rating for that episode on iMDB, and the fact that viewers went crazy with how amazing that episode was. (It also happened to follow probably the most epic episode in TV history, "The Battle of the Bastards")

Dark Matter's "cliffhanger" has no weight to it because we know no one is going to die. They'll kill a few redshirts no one cares about, then everything will return to normal. I bet we find out Nyx was a clone from a transfer pod, so she survives, yadda yadda yadda...

It's not about who dies - It's more to do with who is where, who saved/captured who and just what the heck is going on.

Also she was a completely dead weight as a character.

My favorite resolution of the episode is actually that Five and Six manage to escape, the rest dies, and the crew of the alternative universe takes over.

And one of the worst actresses on the show. Just saying.

And if the show had gotten canceled, that would have been a real sh!tty way to leave it.
