The Commonwealth is restored, and the crew of Andromeda Ascendant is freed up to embark upon random goodwill and rescue missions, as Gene Roddenberry's Andromeda launches its third season. For the most part eschewing the story arcs of the previous two seasons, the series now contains more self-contained episodes -- a move inaugurated by new executive producer Bob Engels to make the series more user friendly for viewers unfamiliar with its multitude of subplots. Having lost track of one another in the extraterrestrial battle that ended season two, the crew of the Andromeda are rapidly relocated and reassembled: Captain Dylan Hunt (Kevin Sorbo), his second in command Beka Valentine (Lisa Ryder), engineer Seamus Harper (Gordon Michael Woolvett), pilot Trance Gemini (Laura Bertram), and mercurial Nietzchean crewman Tyr Anasazi (Keith Hamilton Cobb) -- not to mention Rommie (Lexa Doig), curvaceous human manifestation of Andromeda's artificial intelligence. Among the episodes worth noting this season are "What Happens to a Rev Deffered?," which briefly reunites the crew with their former comrade Rev Bem (Brent Strait), a highly religious member of the otherwise bestial Magog race. In the traditional season-ending cliffhanger, the Andromeda crew is jeopardized when a group of Nietzcheans take over the ship -- whereupon Tyr Anasazi reveals his true colors, a fateful moment that may radically alter the course of everyone's future. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Season two of Gene Roddenberry's Andromeda picks up where season one left off, as Andromeda crew members Tyr (Keith Hamilton Cobb) and Harper (Gordon Michael Woolvett) are captured during a battle with the fearsome Magog and injected with millions of Magog eggs. They are rescued by their comrade in arms Rev Bem (Brent Stait), himself a Magog who has pretended to betray the Andromeda on behalf of his own race. Once this matter is settled, Rev decides to leave the Andromeda to embark upon a long soul-searching mission in order to cleanse himself of his race's more bestial tendencies. This leaves Captain Dylan Hunt (Kevin Sorbo) with one fewer crew member to help him rebuild the Commonwealth for its final confrontation with the Magog, but Hunt's loyal aides Harper (Gordon Michael Woolvett), Beka (Lisa Ryder), Trance (Laura Bertram), and humanized artificial intelligence Rommie (Lexa Doig) seem more than capable of facing up to the challenge. As for Nietzchean crew member Tyr (Keith Hamilton Cobb), his true loyalties are still very much in question. In the course of preparing for the last battle with the Magog -- not to mention the inevitable head-to-head against a new enemy, the Abyss -- the enigmatic Trance exchanges places with her older, wiser future self, ostensibly to strengthen the Andromeda's battle force, though Dylan Hunt wonders if the new Trance can be trusted. Season two ends on the eve of the signing of a new Commonwealth charter, as the Andromeda gears up to safeguard its allies from thousands upon thousands of phase-shifting warships from another universe. It is at this point that the present Trance confronts her time-shifting former self -- but to what end? ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Season one of Gene Roddenberry's Andromeda begins as Captain Dylan Hunt (Kevin Sorbo) of the Systems Commonwealth high guard, is betrayed by his Nietzchean first officer Generis Rhade, whereupon Hunt and his starship, Andromeda Ascendant, are trapped in a black hole and left in frozen stasis for 300 years. During Hunt's long sleep, the Commonwealth collapses when the Nietzcheans declare war on their former allies in general and their hated enemies the Magog in particular. Awakening from suspended animation, Hunt finds that he and the Andromeda are under siege from the "Eureka Maru," a mercenary vessel captained by the beauteous Beka Valentine (Lisa Ryder), who has been hired to capture the Andromeda on behalf of the Nietzcheans. When she realizes that her "allies" plan to stab her in the back, Beka accepts Hunt's invitation to join him on the Andromeda and embark upon a mission to rally support for the restoration of the Commonwealth. Also going along for the ride are crew members Seamus Harper (Gordon Michael Woolvett), Trance Gemini (Laura Bertram), and Rev Bem (Brent Stait), the latter a Magog suffering the pangs of conscience over the bestial side of his nature. In addition, Hunt is backed up by Rommie (Lexa Doig), the sexy human manifestation of the Andromeda's artificial intelligence -- and, surprisingly, by maverick Nietzchean Tyr Anasazi (Keith Hamilton Cobb), whose loyalties fluctuate wildly throughout the season. In the season one finale, the Andromeda is attacked by the Magog, who capture Tyr and Harper and inject them with parasitical Magog larvae -- while Rommie, her memory accidentally wiped out, all but sells out everyone on the ship. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

To save Will from this horrendous fate, Carlton (Alfonso Ribeiro) becomes his manager and advises him to screw up royally during a live telecast so he will be fired on the spot--but the scheme backfires because Carlton hasn't bothered to read the script for the next episode. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
