Movieweb has published a ranked list of the 10 greatest episodes of The Expanse, the science-fiction series that ran from 2015 to 2021 across Syfy and Prime Video.

The piece highlights the series' six-season, 62-episode run and singles out episodes that exemplify its blend of political drama, character work and spectacle. It names Season 2's "Home" as the series' best episode, noting Miller's sacrifice and the use of Clinton Shorter's track "Milowda," and praises other standouts such as the Season 6 finale "Babylon's Ashes," Season 4's "Cibola Burn," Season 5's "Gaugamela," and several key Season 3 and 1 installments for advancing major plotlines and character arcs.

The article also points to elements left open by the finale — the piece notes the final episode sets up the Laconia storyline from later books and expresses hope that Amazon will adapt those novels — and invites readers to share their own top-10 lists in the comments.
