Andromeda Finding Its Way

Kevin Sorbo, star of the hit syndicated TV series Gene Roddenberry's Andromeda, told the Fandom Web site that the show is still finding its way. "I still think we're going through teething pains," Sorbo told the site. "Season two will be great. I think all of us actors on the show are still trying to find our feet. We've come a long way."

Producers have completed 17 of the first 22 episodes of the series, which is shot in Vancouver, Canada. "I think shows have gotten better," Sorbo said. "I think there's a couple here that didn't turn out as expected. It's interesting when you're reading scripts and you say, 'This is going to be awesome!' but when you shoot it and look at it, you go, 'Oh my God!' Of the 17 [filmed] we have three right now that I'm not crazy about. I think we can save one of them. All the shows coming up for the November sweeps are going to be unbelievable. I'm happy with about 70 percent. That's pretty good odds. On [Hercules: The Legendary Journeys], I'd be happy with about 50 percent or 40 percent."

Sorbo also acts as a producer of the show, which has earned healthy ratings in syndication since it premiered last month. "Right now we're still trying to figure out where the characters are going," Sorbo said. "The writing is excellent. I think we need to get back to some of the basics of what Capt. Hunt is trying to do. What he's trying to re-establish with the Commonwealth. I think we need to go out there and explore strange new worlds and not stay on the ship so much. The writers are trying to lighten the view on who's Capt. Hunt. Who's Trance? Who's Harper? Give them backstories. That will come in time. I really believe this series will go five or seven years."
 
I agree with a lot of that, lots of work to do and we need to know more about character motiviation, it is coming across too slowely. We shall see. It is brilliant that he dosen't see it as all good, knows what is good and what is not and what needs work. Very good sign i think.
 
I just hope that they don't do it all at once ... give us the answers too fast. A little mystery is always good. ;)

Cheers,
 
Yep

I agree they need to find a happy medium enough to keep the viewer interested and watching but not so fast that it can't be absorbed properly by the average person.
