 Andromeda (TV series) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Andromeda is one of two TV series (to date) based upon concepts Roddenberry had created as early as the 1960s and 1970s.
Controversy erupted during the midst of the second season when series developer Robert Hewitt Wolfe announced he had been released from the show’s production, though his influence was felt through the completion of the second season; at that point, Bob Engels was brought on to executive produce the series.
The series was subsequently picked up by the Sci-Fi Channel in the U.S. Unlike in other sci-fi series, recurring characters are often separated, and don’t appear always together.

Yet the rule for the writing of good fiction is that the hero must grow and change as a result of the events of the story -- or it's not a story at all.
Like the Darkover Saga continuing after the author's death, we have a TV series being continued based on notes and unproduced work by the late creator of Star Trek.

During the remainder of the series' first season, Hunt lead the Andromeda on a noble mission to rebuild the Commonwealth by aligning the peoples of other worlds -- and he also fended off the possible treachery of the sullen Tyr and the opportunistic Beka.
Missing from the equation is Rommie, the sexy human manifestation of Andromeda's artificial intelligence, who had been destroyed in battle at the end of season four (actually, actress Lexa Doig was on maternity leave, and could only appear in close-ups as the "televised" version of Rommie).
Gene Roddenberry's Andromeda reaches closure as the Avatars of the Nebula guide Andromeda back on the Route of Ages and toward the safety of the Commonwealth -- where the crew must gird itself for the final all-out battle against their traditional enemies, the Nietzcheans.

 Writer Groupie's Favorite TV Series -- Gene Roddenberry's Andromeda
Not as pretty as the Andromeda, the Eureka Maru had still proven its value in its initial rescue of the Andromeda when it was trapped at the event horizon of a fl hole and on multiple occasions since.
And while Beka complained that all too often it was her ship utilized for the most dangerous and suicidal missions the crew took on, there were moments like this, when the crew was together, traveling to a potentially adventurous destination that Beka felt like the mother of an extended family she'd adopted.
But all the locals did was look on sadly as the Andromeda crewmembers were surrounded by a large group of the figures who continued to pour into the Plaza in seemingly endless numbers.

In Gene Roddenberry’s Andromeda, the fourth TV series based on the Great Bird’s ideas, actress Lexa Doig is just that: the face and body of the starship Andromeda Ascendant.
Andromeda might still be a little expositional, and she’s not, all the time.
An experienced actress from Toronto, Canada, Doig is most recognizable to genre fans for her prominent role as `Cowgirl` in the 1994 Tekwar series, beginning with the series’ two-hour pilot, the sequel Teklords and the subsequent one-hour episodes.

 The Great Canadian Guide to the Movies & TV: An - Ao
Another TV series based on an idea by the late Gene (Star Trek) Roddenberry, though unlike Earth: Final Conflict, this was inspired more by vague notes rather than a detailed outline (perhaps explaining how it could have superficial similarities to the TV series "Farscape", a U.S.-Australian co-production from around the same time).
Though not especially graphic, it is arguably the most violent series on TV (wresting that dubious distinction away from Lexx) and can induce queasiness with its love of wholesale slaughter.
Fourth TV movie folowing the successful TV series, North of 60, is a pretty good suspense-drama, blending the mystery aspects with drama and social issues (like racism), nicely anchored by series' regulars Keeper and House.
