After rewatching the series 20 years later...
After rewatching Andromeda, Babylon 5, and Farscape, I had some thoughts about the three series. Some people think Babylon 5 or Farscape were better, but I disagree. B5 has not aged well over the years, everything is so completely stuck in the 1990's, the fashion, the tech, even the quips and pop culture references seem really dated, kind of like how the Buck Rogers tv show was supposedly in the far future but everything was smeared with the veneer of the 1970s. Farscape was good, but the constant being on the run got a little tiring towards the end since it really didn't leave a lot of room to really explore the universe it was taking place in. Moreover, like B5, Crichton's boomer pop cultures references in Farscape were so completely ant…
Andromeda seasons review
Hello everyone in this Fandom it's been a long time since I've posted a blog this one is gonna
be about a review of the show. I really like Andromeda it's a great space show the cast is amazing the episodes are really good I've already mentioned that Seamus Zelazny Harper is my favorite character mostly because he's an awesome blue eyed blonde hair genus. Any way the show in it's self has a lot of action season 5 was interesting Harper had his own bar which was cool I really liked in the seasons when Dylan says "let's bring it" I loved how caring Harper was to his crew members especially his Rommie. Dylan was a great captain, I didn't like when Tyr cut his hair although the afro he had was nice in season 4. He had a cute son with Freya thou…
Andromeda's Engineer Seamus Harper
Hello Fandom I want to talk about Andromeda's engineer and my favorite character of the show Seamus Zelazny Harper I've just started season 3 a couple of days ago I've seen the show before but it's been a really really long time since I've seen the show so I'm watching it again. There are so many reasons why Seamus is my favorite character for one every time he's in an episode of the show he makes the show so much better he's very sweet and kind he's also very sarcastic at times but an amazing engineer he cares a lot about his crew members I can't wait to see the episodes where he has a moehawk 💜
Sailing the Slipstream
Oh, I have tried to email Jill, but alas, no response. She has a non-active website and there are no links to the anywhere useful. Searching the internet has proved fruitless. Either no one on this planet bought copies of "Sailing the Slipstream" or they are holding onto them tightly.
I would be happy to pay a premium for a copy of that insightful booklet, but as of yet have not found one copy for sale. Not even on ebay!
All searches on book sites only turn up "Star Trek" related materials...AAAACK. Well, I will update as soon I as come across that book.
Found this quote from Jill Sherwin on an obscure forum:
"Back in 1999, I heard that my former boss, Robert Hewitt Wolfe, was developing a new show based on some ideas by Gene Roddenberry. Bein…
Who is it?
In Phear Phactor Phenom, Prieus keeps saying, "Old Greyban Ranbamagen's ghost, that's who done it. His ghost!". Who is Greyban Ranbamagen?
He keeps saying it, "Old Greyban Ranbamagen. His ghost, that's who done it.", until Rhade knocks him out.
This is a real mystery and is never explained as far as I know. Would love to hear ideas or comments about what Greyban Ranbamagen means.
Dylan meets Dylan
Does anyone have an opinion about when Dylan walks through the door and meets himself, then smiles a bit? Would love to hear your ideas about what this scene represents.
Virgil Vox-Inaris Connection?
Does anyone besides me think that the other purple being that caused the Inaris civil war was a younger Virgil Vox?
Rev Bem's great grandsons' origins
Is anyone besides me curious about the origins of Rev Bem's great grandson? I mean does anyone think he's descended from Tiama's brood or from someone from before he became a Wayist? Please speak your minds, that's what this is about.
Andromeda fan fic series
Hey everyone this Dragonboy546 I am glad to be on here and to give you a new thing in the Andromeda Universe now as many has known that the end of Andromeda the series was season 5 but many fans have been making Andromeda fan fic series stories some about what happened between episodes some like mine after the series, now at the end of the series we see the Andromeda in orbit around the long lost home of Dylan Hunt Tarn-Vedra well what would happen if he was promoted to Admiral and gives command of his ship to a new Captain.
A question of tense
I would be interested to know other people's feelings on this point. It seems strange to me that, within a single article, the story often shifts back and forward between past and present tense while describing a procession of events. Should there be a standard of past or present tense for all pages? Is the 'now' of a given episode the present tense for writing about that series of events?
Presumably, if there is a 'now' for these tales it is the timeframe of the five seasons.
On an unrelated note, I also wonder if the information and pages pertaining only to the novels should be specially marked, or have some other categorisation which shows that this information wasn't seen or heard on screen.
Offer to help
I can try to get some pics from Andromeda if someone can give me an episode and a general time.
Notes to Self.

The wikia changes and what to expect
Wikia will be changing it's look over the next 2 weeks. The current Monaco skin and the format of the page are going to completely change to a wikia css format, bringing with it new options and a brand new, sleek look. The beta for the new look has been out for several weeks, and the admins of this wiki have been participating so that we know that to expect and how to cope with the change.
Basically, designing a new skin will become not a matter of coding but picking pictures and colors with a few clicks of the mouse.
- The wiki sidebar navigation has now been moved the top of each page, for quick access to the most important links on your wiki. The sidebar has also been made smaller and the tiers of choices of pages has been taken away in ord…
Decision to not install the Wikia Badge Feature
I have decided not to install the Wikia Badge feature for a variety of reasons. Let me begin by describing the system. The badge system would put into place a system where users could gain badges and points for doing various tasks around the wiki, such as adding images, blog posts, comments on articles, and just regular edits on pages. You would also gain points along with every badge you earn, thus creating a list of users ranked by how many points and badges they have. While this system may seem interesting and cool, I believe that there are some serious downsides that this system would generate.
- It would turn the wiki into a game, where any edit (no matter how small) would count towards the badge system. While this might inspire more peo…
Sara Riley
How can anyone watch the series Andromeda and not love Sara Riley? (She is so lucky, I envy her). She and Dylan make a perfect couple (how can anyone not love him? hehe)
Bureaucrat Request for this wiki
I have asked the sole bureaucrat and other admin besides myself (Anthil'za) for her to grant me Bureaucratship. I believe that I have proven myself to be a good and steady editor, as I have edited several times a week for the past 2.5 years that I have been an admin, and usually try to edit several times a day. I have also tried my best to expand the wiki, gain new users, and make it an outstanding compilation of information on the Andromeda universe. If anyone would like to object, comment or express support, please comment. Acaeton 02:18, July 24, 2010 (UTC)
Looking for something
I've been watching my collection of Andromeda and I have a question. I'm getting old and I remember an episode where the crew were in a giant library that was being taken over by the Abyss. The library was a huge computer mainframe and they would go dark as they were infected. Does anyone know what I'm talking about?
Fic: Life On Our Own - Chapter 1
Since "Blog posts are a great way to share news, opinions, and creative pieces with the community", here goes nothin'.
Dylan and Beka walked down the corridor, in the middle of talking. "According to Trance, the repairs will be complete no earlier than start of next week."
Dylan sighed, and asked, "Remind me again why I let Harper and Rommie go with Tyr, rather than I going in their place? Especially when Harper's needed here."
Beka smirked a little, and listed, "First, Little Miss Golden Future Fighter told us there's a high probability that with the infamous Dylan Hunt there, something would go wrong, but with Rommie there, not so much. With Harper?"
Dylan interrupted, "He's a magnet for trouble."
"And any sort of trouble he'll get into he could…
Fic: Ideas of Family - Chapter 1
Since "Blog posts are a great way to share news, opinions, and creative pieces with the community", here goes nothin'.
Looking up from the report, Dylan glanced at the busy engineer at the other end of the Command deck, before keeping his eyes on Beka, “I thought these systems would have been operational by now.” He spoke, not loud enough to attract Harpers' attention.
Beka composed herself, and replied, “Harper says he’s moving as fast as he can.”
Dylan looked closely at his first officer, and nodded. She had looked sad, until he had spoken. Normally, he would have then commented that Harper had already taken twice as long as the last time he’d had to do repairs of this magnitude, and only half of the repairs were even done, and that was across…
Possibility of an mIRC chat channel for the wiki
Would anybody be able to or want to participate in a chat group about this wiki? Any subject could be covered from editing to discussion of episode. It would be a big help for collaborating and talking about the series, and I think that it would be a lot of fun. Anybody else feel this way?
Editing more, please comment.
This is pretty much a plea for help from everyone that has edited on this Wikia. To be blunt, people need to edit more, in every sense of the word. Since i became an editor of this Wikia a little less than a year ago, I have been doing a majority of the editing, and while we do have a couple people who edit on a regular basis, most people that edit on this Wikia only add half a sentence or a couple of words, or sometimes just remove or add a space. I've seen only 2 instances of where someone has created a new page here, and there have been almost no large edits of pages at all by any users. I'm not trying to sound bossy or vindictive, but if this Wikia is going to grow at more than a snails pace we need more people to edit. You don't have …
