Just wanted to get an idea of how many people watch the Majel Barret-Roddenberry produced Sci-Fi shows. Myself, I hate to admit it, but I like Andromeda. It has some good story lines as well as decent actors (not Sorbo). Also Lexa Doig is a DEFINITE bonus (hot, Hot, HOT!!!!!!!!).
On the other hand, Earth: Final Conflict smokes donkey pole.http://www.stopstart.freeserve.co.uk/smilie/puke.gif

You suck!
EFC rocked. Until they made Leam a human. Then killed him off. That was stupid. The series as a whole was cool though, except for the final episode, that was lame.
I dislike Andromeda, I've watched it quite a few times, but it really is just quite bad.

eh, as a whole, i like the shows derived from his ideas. at least they have some interesting ideas, even if the writing or acting isnt the greatest.
but i watched efc until the local station dropped it. (picture pissed wench here). i really liked the actors, they did a great job. the writing was mostly decent too. not too many plot holes you could drive a semi through.
i watched some episodes of andromeda. never got into it, mainly because of sorbo. or the character. not really sure which it is. and the writing was rather cheesy. but again, had some unique ideas there.
id say roddenberys stuff is at least a step or more above the norm. at least its not that silly pablum that is what most of tvland consists of.

For those who don't know, Majel-Barrett Roddenberry was Lwaxana Troi, the saucy mother of Counselor Deana Troi in TNG  (and also the voice-over of the ship's alarm/notification system ... y'know, the voice that says things like "hull breach in decks 3, 5 and 8 ...)

yes, she was the voice of the computer on TNG. also DS9. where she also played lwaxana. i dont know if she did anything on voyager.
she also was nurse chapel in the original star trek. gives new meaning to "sleeping your way to the top". (roddenberry was married to his first wife at the time)

I admit, I tried following Andromeda, but it has no purpose to the show whatsoever. It's officially Hercules in space with his merry band of troopers. They ditched the magogg storyline, changed Trances appearance, De-neitzchified the Neitzean, got rid of Rev, made Lexa's hair blue and then changed it to red.
Now the crew is just a bunch of Lemmings that do whatever the hell Dillon tells them to do. Yay. Harper rocks though. The only cool character left on the show.

I don't think they ditched the Magogg worldship plotline, they're probably saving that for a Cliffhanger episode. As for Tyr, wtf happened to his bonespurs?

I've seen a couple episodes of Andromeda and I they have the Andromeda's hologram look exactly like someone on the ship. huh?
