It’s a highly competitive field, but you’d have difficulty beating “The Expanse” in the arena of passionate science fiction fandoms. A bleak, visually stunning future, the looming threat of interplanetary war, and more than three times the daily recommended allotment of intrigue kept audiences coming back across six seasons and two networks.
In season two, viewers were introduced to one Doctor Praxideke, “Prax” Meng, played by Terry Chen. A botanist working off of Ganymede Station just a stone’s throw from Jupiter, he’s driven by a largely understandable desire to find his missing daughter, Mei (Leah Madison Jung), having greatness thrust upon him when it turns out that the little girl’s pediatrician might have something to do with sci-fi superweapons and a whole mess of MIA children. While most of Chen’s work on the show was bottled up in seasons two and three, he managed to nab a pretty choice return to the character in the show’s final season. Even better, he witnessed some pretty horrific atrocities, which no doubt helped prepare him for a career with FEDRA on “The Last of Us.”
