[QUOTE="LightPhoenix, post: 33310, member: 115"] Whoops, bad analogy. That was TNT's fault, not the ratings, which were quite good for a cable sci-fi series. The thing is, Andromeda was never (and now never will be) as story-heavy as Babylon 5 was - this effect is greatly diminished. But it is a valid concern, I just don't think that Andromeda had very much of an arc at all that would drive people away. While much of what you said I agree with, I can't support this statement. This seems like selling-out to me, and the way it's been described, it's very much not going to be the same show as it used to be. I liked Andromeda's balance of episodic and arcing storylines a lot, now I think that balance is gone. The Big 3 don't like science fiction at all, prolly cause of ratings. They would never pick up a scifi show. LightPhoenix [/QUOTE]
