Having seen the first episode I have to say that it's looking pretty good — especially for a show made by the SyFy channel (I know, I'm scared too). That said, it's a fairly slow episode as they have to introduce a bunch of characters like James Holden and Chrisjen Avasarala, but they've stuck really closely to the first book and I think that it'll be a pretty great help to them in the future. We should also see things pick up in the next few episodes now that the majority of the character introductions are out of the way and the plot can really get moving. All in all I'm excited to see the story play out on TV. I expect that the screenwriters, Mark Fergus and Hawk Ostby, will be able to keep up the same level of writing given how well their work on Children of Man, and Iron Man turned out.
As an aside I really like what little we've seen of the ship designs. Hopefully we'll get a good look at Martian warships when the Donnager and what becomes the Rocinante make their appearances. Also, Miller wears a bloody stupid hat.
