lol. They had a nice conversation about diving safety and DCS (the bends)...then Juliette proceeds to do exactly what one would do to get DCS....and doesn't appear to be in the slightest bit of pain. For our non-diving audience, she should be dead from an embolism or near dead from the pain/shock.

Non-diver here. Did she really go deep enough for that?

They'll have it kick in next week I bet.

Y'all make me glad I bailed. I'm curious about the book(s). I assume they're more dynamic?

I read them all. For me to have done that they must have been good. Honestly, though, I remember very little beyond what was depicted in the first season.

some limited chatter I read online suggests yes.  Book nerds are complaining the show sucks this season and speculate the writers strike and perhaps RF's limited availability for shooting (as half jokingly alluded to above by @Js1) may be the culprit.  This season has been very mid.

It’s been a decade since I read the books. I don’t feel like the books spent as much time on the happenings in silo 18 once Juliette failed to clean.

I will say I loved the books my thoughts …

Spoiler

My biggest thing is that Judicial is a construct for the show. They weren’t much of a thing in the books. I feel like much of the strife was created for the sake of that construct and is weighing the show down.

I wonder if they are trying to squeeze an extra season out also.  It's been like 2 episodes worth of actual events that move the plot forward.

There shouldn’t be. The books alone easily had 5 seasons of material, IMHO.
