Andromeda is just another mind-numbingly meaningless show from the posthumus Roddenberry Empire of mediocrity. I can't believe he would enjoy watching the shows that have been created in his name other than the various Star Trek series where all the money and writing talent go. I can't imagine anyone having endured Earth: Final Conflict all the way through.

The dialogue in the first ten minutes "There are too many of them!" and "It's our only chance (hope?)" peg the script writer as a student at the George Lucas School of Scriptwriting (correspondence only). The starship (who is a machine, let us not forget)wants to look like a sexy babe with a lot of cleavage showing prominently. Would that 'look' really appeal to a machine - wouldn't it want to be metallic and oily? Besides, the 'living ship' idea is done so much better in Farscape. So I wonder if I have wasted my money.
However, Kevin Sorbo is a surprise - a better actor than our lad in Farscape (who only looks sober and/or confused most of the time). Sorbo's athleticism adds a reality to the fight scenes and he seems totally dedicated to his dream of reuniting millions of worlds (unrealistic as that seems in the face of our inability to unite even a portion of our planet).
Tyr is tremendously sexy, especially when given a chance. And the other characters are off-beat enough to be interesting. Except for the furball - they really should have gone to see Brian Henson on that one - the mask looks like a mask - it never moves. And the spraying is inconsistent with his Zen-like character (who seems more Catholic with his confession and absolution stuff - poor fellow). He won't kill anyone, but he will torture them? Come on.
Are we still going to be riding motorcycles with windscreens 12,000 years from now? Will people from another planet be quoting the Bible about "Reaping the whirlwind" - wouldn't they be quoting Neitzsce instead (sp?)? The anachronisms boggle.
So I bought the next set. So I'm hooked anyway. So sue me.

Yeah, chances are if you are looking for this DVD set you are already hooked on the Andromeda series. Welcome to the club. You already know what the other reviewers are saying.
This two DVD set has the first five episodes of Andromeda: Under the Night, An Affirming Flame, To Loose the Fateful Lightning, D Minus Zero, and Double Helix. Also included are extras like character profiles, bloopers, behind the scenes, TV teasers, and more.
And for those who haven't seen Andromeda, it is faster and funnier than the politically correct and sanitized Star Trek (TNG), more realistic, and more believable. Sure, there is some cheese thrown in for good measure, but it makes it even more fun.
Highly recommended, but then again, you probably already knew that.
