good attempt for sure, loved it, but I'm thinking of a 5-7 season series. I've got a specific progression in mind of B5-BSG-The-Expanse

. They are so different in style and scope. If you want me to try and choose between the two of them... .

The Expanse

The expense

The Expanse. I love BSG and its gritty take on space opera. But the Expanse is so much more grounded and interesting character dynamics.

Omg you're in for a ride

I'm going to go ahead and assume anyone voting BSG simply hasn't seen the Expanse yet.

Battlestar Galactica. “So Say We All.”

Battlestar Galactica!!!!!

My top three shows of all time: 1. The Expanse. 2. Penny Dreadful. 3. Battlestar Galactica. That's my answer. 😁

The Expanse for sure.

Expanse. Love them both, though.

The reboot of Battlestar, I love that show back in the day & it's one of those shows that has stuck with me for quite a long time.

BSG all the way. I even like the ending.

Expanse is the "better" show but BSG was truly such a ride. Love my boy Gaius.

As I'm currently binge watching BSG... The Expanse wins. But BSG is quite good.

Wait, is this just the Battlestar Galactica miniseries or the whole thing?

The Expanse

The Expanse, without a doubt

The Expanse

There are people who would not choose Galactica? Really? I don't believe you.

This is sort of my thought too. Expanse stuck the landing. I do love both and would frakking love to see more of both

BSG

BSG for me.

BSG. Not really close. The writing, the acting, the story arc.

If you force me to, The Expanse

Best way to go about it!

There is 9 books, 7 are covered by the show. The other two take place after a 20 year time skip.

I feel it is one of the best, in terms of book to screen conversion.

Battlestar Galactica, of course.

I refuse

Expanse, 💯.

BSG until Expanse came along. Then Expanse

BSG… by a millimeter

Expanse...but would think about BSG from time to tim

It's close but Battlestar wins for me.

The one NOT on amazon.

One of the characters that I liked the least in the Expance.

Expanse. I do like BSG, a lot. But......

Battlestar

Can't decide both were excellent. If i had to choose, the book would prejudice me to the Expanse.

It is, for 2003's version; for 1979, (and, of course, that mineral extraction method), its 5

B S G

Expanse

BSG Can be a hard watch right now though...

Same! Especially Drummer. She’s awesome!

Expanse.

The Expanse

Can I just say Lower Decks and be done with it?

Blake’s 7 …?

Expanse!

BSG

I love them both, but have to go with BSG

Expanse for sure.

Expanse easily wins. Better story, better writing. Cast is amazing and believable.

Battlestar Galactica because the Expanse is best enjoyed as a book series, not a TV adaptation.

The Expanse. Chrisjen Avasarala is the win

The Expanse

The Former Trousers

BSG, if only because I read all the expanse books first, so I knew what was going to happen in the show.

Tough one.

Galactica

For sure, Battlestar Galactica, 2003

I enjoyed BSG but for me it’s The Expanse for sure.

BSG.

It has to be The Expanse. It's more grounded, it's character development is more detailed, and the story is more consistent. I love Battlestar Galactica too, but The Expanse explores both believable sci-fi and the intricacies of political power.

Not in small part because Wes Chatham. 🥵

Can I say BSG, but omit the final 2 episodes?

Unfair question. Both are amazing but BSG (2005) laid the ground work for space operas on a grand scale with more realistic space physics. Extra points to BSG because they got to finish their story.... but double points to The Expanse because Amos was so perfectly cast.

BSA. I couldn’t get into The Expanse.

Love both but Battlestar Galactica

The Expanse by a long shot. It even had it's own language. L'espace a pi bon anpil pase lòt vèsyon ansyen seri televizyon Battlestar Galactica.

I love both... but I think I have to go with The Expanse

BSG. There's no toasters in the panse.

The Expanse.

The Expanse

I prefer the first picture for the symbolism. Now, a very difficult choice concerning the series. They are very different

The Expanse! Beautiful score too.

The Expanse for sure. I loved BSG, but The Expanse is in a whole other league.

Les 2 évidemment

The expanse, both were good but bsg went a bit Lost at the end.

Overheard 📌

I HEAR YOU.

Funny AF!

🤣

The only possible choice is both. And now I’m gonna binge watch both.

The Expanse! Loved BSG as well, but loved the grit and realism of the expanse more.

Both are great in their own ways, don't think I could choose. <3

And Olmos and McDonnell just set a whole new level. They are SO good in their roles! And their chemistry as actors! Yep! BSG all the way!

Nooooooo! I will not choose as they are both great in very different ways. Except the "endings" both pretty much sucked, that's the same.

The Expanse for me

They're both great, but The Expasnse might be my favorite tv show of all time. Not to mention the fantastic source material.

Hot damn that's a tough one. I think Battlestar wins out, but both are amazing.

/Maneo head thrashing gif

I raise with Babylon 5. Ha !

Loved both. But The Expanse was the better show.

BSG. “Brace for contact my friend.”

I would choose the expanse. My problem is that the show stopped when they got to the expanse. They could fire up the show again without any of the former actors. The expanse can take you to any story you want to tell, like Stargate.

Expanse ftw

If Galactica had stuck the landing, it would have been Galactica. I loved the show. It came out at the perfect time for me (as I was living in halls of residence as a student), and I latched on to it with great enthusiasm... but the ending just... ugh.

BSG, if only for the episode "33." However, some bad casting in BSG, and some episodes don't hold up. I lost interest in The Expanse and thought some of the sets looked a little chintzy. Maybe I'll go back to it.
