I watched it. It was ok. I'll sort of miss the show... it was fun sometimes. Was that the Vedrans coming back at the end?? Does that mean they're going to kick the Magog's butts now? Or did that happen when they destroyed the Abyss?? and what about that big Neitzchian fleet? They didn't die... or is that something else for the Vedrans coming back to do? Still some unanswered questions... oh well, can't have everything. Also... Trance said she was sad... why?? (I liked her... ) *sigh* It was an ok end, to an ok show. I didn't hate it (as some people seem to), but it could've been way better than it was. I blame the writers... like a blame the writers for Enterprise. Both shows could've been WAY better than they were. If Enterprise had done in their 2nd season (at least) what they did in their 4th season... it would likely still be around.
Good-bye to 2 nice shows, that could've been better than what they eventually became...

I watched it. it's over. thank the good lord.
Now I can stop torturing myself with the fascinating train wreck it has turned out to be.
Still can't explain why I was watching but hopefully this opens the door for something not so hard to swallow.

Yay, Harper would be a cool engineer to have around! He always did remind me a bit of a space monkey but he's my favourite character other than Gaheris Rhade. *sighs* I've never forgiven the writers that they killed off the most intriguing character in the first five minutes of the show.
The writers always had a penchant to kill or ruin the characters and plot lines that I liked, but it's still a bit sad that Andromeda is over now. I had still hoped that they would hire some new writers capable to fulfill Andromeda's full potential.O'Neill: You did it, Sam. You won.
Carter: Wasn't me.
O'Neill: Oh yes it was. You hung in there, you beat it.
Carter: The Goa'uld gave its life for me. It saved me.
Sharush: Selmak is a wonderful Tok'ra. She is selfless and caring, she is good company, she has a wonderful sense of humor.
Carter: Well, that's good, Dad. You can sit around for hours cracking yourself up.

Nope, not the worse. There have been FAR worse, but I only watched a few new episodes and a few old ones and VERY quickly lost interest. BORING!
And NO real chemistry between the actors.....just my opinion.On fighting:
Farrah: "A swordsman does not fear death, if he dies with honor."
Dr. Who: "Then he's an idiot."

First, I thought the casting choice was a bit flawed. I am in the minority in that I thought Tyr, Harper and Beka were HORRIBLE choices. Especially Harper, one of the most annoying characters. And for Rommie, nice eye candy, but so stale.
The Magog, well I thought who ever thought that one up should have been relegated to writing reality tv. Someone said something about monkey-suits, well when I first saw them I thought, hey its planet of the apes.
I remember when the show first came out it was the highest rated syndicated series, my how far it has fallen. It seemed they tried to make the show half popcorn scifi like Star Trek and half serious adult scifi like Earth Final Conflict. And that mixture just did not work. I think most people, even those that saw every ep were completely lost with what was going on.
Finally I would like to add one other pointer. For those that do watch the show, how in the #%@# can they have so much special effects for being such a low budget production? It seems that they have even more than Stargate. One of the biggest gripes people have about the Stargate eps isnt it the eps where they dont go off-world. Even more, the off-world eps always seem to look the same, back woods of beautiful Toronto. From the Andromeda eps I have seen, rarely does it look like the same recycled outdoor scenes. Maybe now that Andromeda is ending Stargate can hire their special effects people.
p.s. My vote for worst scifi- FIREFLY! That garbage shouldn't even be mentioned as science fiction. The only reason that crap even got on tv in the first place was because it was made by Mr. Buffy himself. Glad, so glad that show was canceled. Bad, very bad when you have to fight to stay awake watching the first ep, and it just got worse from there.
Anyways, back to the subject at hand.
Andromeda had one hell of a concept, but that was the only thing it ever had going for it, and that had been completely abandoned by mid-season 2. I mean, the first thing that went wrong with it was that it got sold to Tribune, THE studio for crappy low budget shows. Then they got Kevin Sorbo on board, made a fairly good pilot and then with the exception of 3 or 4 season 1 episodes it was downhill from there. They decided to get rid of RHW, the only person on the staff who knew what he was doing, totally f***ed around with the show's concept and just let it get worse. And even more insulting was the fact that they decided to slap "Gene Roddenberry's" on it to try and make it look good.Last edited by Cymro; 19 May 2005, 02:59 AM.
