The Expanse is great but it's made by [EDIT, thanks 'winthrowe:] some other studio. Syfy were right to buy it because it is so much better than anything Syfy have ever created... whatever was done right here, they should try to do some of it.

It's not made by Syfy, the top rights belong to Alcon; Syfy just is the exclusive American distributor.

Who makes A Very Secret Service?

Don't know, but it's presented as a Netflix branded "Netflix Original Series".

But they do that with a bunch of stuff that they haven't made. They do it with the BBC shows that they carry.

True, but their willingness to seek out and plaster their names all over these shows (and no doubt pay for the privilege) is a good indication that it is the sort of thing they seem to be into.

There's a Dirk Gently show??
