Andromeda: S01E17: The Devil Take the Hindmost

Andromeda: S01E17: The Devil Take the Hindmost

This was a whoppingly good episode.  There wasn’t much in the way of mind shattering computer graphics, and to be honest, seeing the Magog (who to me, look like vicious monkeys) always makes me laugh.  But the actual story was thought provoking and powerful.

Andromeda: S01E13: Harper 2.0

This episode was another cracker (and a screamer!). It was well written and well directed, but by far the most praise should go to Gordon Michael Woolvett for his immaculate performance as Harper.

I’m afraid I don’t have much information on this Andromeda culture yet – other than the fact that they are a bunch of bastards!

Andromeda: People: Tyr Anasazi

Andromeda: People: Tyr Anasazi

Wadda mean looking dude! He made a grand entrance in the first two episodes when he boarded the Andromeda as a mercenary.

Andromeda: People: Seamus Harper

Andromeda: People: Seamus Harper

He’s supposed to be a sort of ships caretaker and ‘fix-it’ man, but lets face it, Harper is the closest thing that Andromeda has to a Ships Engineer.

The new opening title sequence set the scene for an episode filled with action and intrigue, especially concerning Tyr and the Nietzschean’s.

This was another cracking show.  We learned much more about Trance, Harper and Tyr, we began to understand what happened in the closing months of the War…

Andromeda: S01E01: Under the Night

First Episode! Like most other Cult TV Sci Fi shows, Andromeda has it all, exotic spaceships, sexy lead characters and a gripping story always on the borders of plausibility.

Andromeda: S01E02: An Affirming Flame

Andromeda: S01E02: An Affirming Flame

I listened to the opening theme tune (Lifeson of Rush wrote and recorded it, my expectation rose again.  I sat back, took a sip of beer from the can and let the show wash over me – All was right with the world.

Andromeda: Cultures: The Magog

Andromeda: Cultures: The Magog

The Magog are simply wonderful! They are one of those races that you tend to like despite knowing that they are pathologically closer to being Devils than anything you’ve ever seen or heard of.
