Thats pretty cool!! Im not into going to those convenctions and that stuff. I just like to watch the shows. But it would be pretty cool to meet Sorobo.

I remember when Andromeda First came out. I wasnt all that intersted in it but it wasnt untill about a year a go my dad was watching it and i sat down and got hooked. I must agree season three took a turn for the worst but i stilled like the series. Its just a shame they had to end it. They should of atleast made another season about the Common Wealth Fleet returning home or something.

Many Andromeda fans thought the series took a major turn when Robert Hewitt Wolfe (series developer and executive producer) left the show (let go?) during the 2nd season. If you notice, season 3 was more episodic or stand alone episodes.

Wolfe outlined his plans in pdf form:

The show itself wasn't bad for a Tribune produced series. The back story was a bit too complicated for many to follow and the humor was often misplaced making it seem awkward or campy. But if one gets into the series, it has its moments.

i was really against the coda.. i thought it was totally in bad taste. I am so glad that harper didn't get made in to a cyborg as well... i would have quit watching it if that really happened

yeah it should be really cool... hehe i'm a bit excited though he was never my fav..he's suppose to be a really nice guy

[Cap.Dylan Hunt]

Thats what ive heard. You ought get a signed Forcelance from him. That would be pretty sweet.

I couldn't afford to get a forcelance

i do have a sparky can though hehe

and some of the inkwork cards.

did you buy one of the force lances in the auctions?


whats your fav episode?

[Cynycal]

I'm pretty sure Rommie's head was in a box at that time because the actress was pregnant or something like that, thats what I remember anyway..

the backstory of the show..hell the universe itself was awesome, given more money, and some other writers towards the end of the series I think it could have been really great. I dont mind Sorbo at all really, though if he's a heavy gravity worlder I would expect him to be shorter. maybe thats just me being stupid tho.

Oh good choices... hmmm my favs

i really really really loved the season 1 finale .... and the season 2 premiere
that just about killed me waiting for 6 months to find out what happened

loved bridging the devils divide.. written by Gordon W

and harper 2.0 totally up there

loved the season 5 episode that featured the return of Hohne

i loves me some persieds

oh and adored fear and loathing in the milky way

[Cap.Dylan Hunt]

I loved season 1 ending and season two permire too. Shame what happened to Andromeda there.

[parisindy]

i swear that was one of the most brilliant cliff hangers ever

[Cap.Dylan Hunt]

Spoiler:

I know Andromeda siting there with a hole through the main decks, Dylan hurt, Magog swarm ships punchuring through the hull. I dont now why they even let trance on the Slipstream piolts chair

. All in all, intersting.

Boss, when Wolfe left, Andromeda fell to its inevitable splat!

[jesserella]

i liked it, but i found Hunt got more annoying as it went on, loved everyone else except him, tho mostly watched it for Rhade, mmmm

[parisindy]

Steve is a great guy.. he's in the guard with gord now...
