Set 200 years in the future, this sci-fi series (based on the novels by James S.A. Corey) follows a hardened detective and a rogue ship's captain who are brought together by a missing person's case—one that reveals an intergalactic conspiracy.

Season five picks up as multitudes of humans leave the solar system in search of new homes and vast fortunes on the earth-like worlds beyond the alien Ring, and a heavy price for centuries of exploitation of the Belt finally comes due. A reckoning is at hand.

A.V. Club

"On one hand everything about it seems even more expansive... At the same time, though, the microgravity of the space stations and asteroid-mining colonies in our own solar system keep things kind of earthy."
