Saw it on TV and it felt like Gene Roddenberry’s leftover dream got a second life in space opera form.
Captain Dylan Hunt wakes up 300 years after the fall of the Systems Commonwealth and sets out to rebuild civilization aboard the Andromeda Ascendant, a sentient warship with a dry wit and serious firepower.
The crew? A mix of mercenaries, mystics and misfits, each with their own baggage and flair.
Kevin Sorbo leads with Hercules in space energy, while Lisa Ryder, Lexa Doig and Keith Hamilton Cobb bring depth, sass and philosophical tension.
The show swings between action packed space battles and metaphysical musings, sometimes brilliant, sometimes baffling.
Watching it again feels like revisiting a sci-fi series that dared to be weird, ambitious and occasionally messy.
The first season? Solid. Later seasons? A slow drift into chaos, especially after behind the scenes shakeups.
But the heart, the idea of rebuilding hope in a broken universe, still resonates.
