The series follows Hunt and the Andromeda crew as they cope with their new environment and attempt to restore order while fending off the hostile forces that wish to destroy them.
Based on the writings of STAR TREK creator Gene Roddenberry, the sci-fi television series ANDROMEDA stars Kevin Sorbo (of HERCULES fame) as Dylan Hunt, captain of the sentient starship Andromeda Ascendant for the All-Systems Commonwealth, a galaxy-spanning near-utopian government.

Advantages: Ver enjoyable Disadvantages: Kevin Sorbo was hotter as Hercules
...About fourteen years ago I watched Hercules the Legendary Journeys and fell completely in love with Kevin Sorbo. Ten years later I switch the television on and see that he has a new television show that my house mates immediately turn over because they're too cool to watch sci-fi (even though I did catch them watching Star Trek once). That new television show was of course Andromeda and as I now have a lovefilm membership I can watch whatever I want! A couple of months ago I received the first DVD of Andromedaseason1 and I have to say that I was disappointed. It turns out that I'm not in love with Kevin Sorbo so much as Hercules. But I got over my initial disappointment (with some help from the extremely sexy Keith Hamilton Cobb) and found out that there is much more to this show than a very attractive cast.

Al Robbins (Robert David Hall) The coroner who is a long standing friend of Grissom.
Greg Sanders (Eric Szmanda) Starts off in the Lab, but soon hankers for more action as a CSI. Eventually becomes part of the team.
Sofia Curtis (Louise Lombard) A CSI who became part of Grissoms team a mid-season5 split. This was basically a demotion and she considered resigning.

Advantages: 4 Episodes on a two DVD set. Disadvantages: Lack of extra and a bit expensive
...The voyages of Captain Dylan Hunt and the crew of the Andromeda Ascendant are continued as they try to re-energise the Andromeda and find their way out of the Seefra system.
As with most of the DVD's in the fifth series this boxset contains 4 episodes namely E10 to E13, which are seperated onto 2 DVD's.
E10 - The Test.
This is a bit of a wierd episode as it is told from start to finish as normal, but the character interaction is dealt with by fade in / out as the story moves along. For example, Trance is at the bar and then dylan would fade in, interact and the fade out.
The episode basically tells the story of a Paradine who is 'murdered' and all the crew, apart from Doyle are accused of the murder. As the plot moves along and each crew member is accused and cross examined by 'the stranger' who came from the route of ages...
