Slightly OT: Dark Matter and Andromeda

Anybody here fans of the show Andromeda? Space channel started re-airing Andromeda, and since I never watched it the first time, I decided to jump into it.

It's really fun, and a little similar to DM. Both shows feature a ship android, and in the first episode a group of mercenaries attempt to take control of the Andromeda. The crew, to me anyways, reminded me of Three. I couldn’t help but think that Three could of handled them by himself.

Nothing against the show or the ship crew, but I have to give the slight edge to DM, I like the more serious, darker tone of the show.

Just wondering if any DM fans share an interest in Andromeda?

When I was younger I my family lacked cable so I had limited access to sci-fi shows Andromeda being one of them. So while I do (or at least did) like it I'm probably biased.

Also when you're done read this http://www.cyberspace5.net/agentrichard07/coda.htm. It's how the show's creator, who left midway thru season 2, wanted it to end.

Thanks for link, I'll be sure to check it when I finish with Andromeda. Do you know why the creator left the show midway into season 2? Did the quality of the show change as well because of the departure?
