Agreed with most thought, although I had to give up on the show mid season 3. It was suffering too much from Tribune-syndrome. That is, it's a show by Tribune Entertainment (they may not be the culprit, but they're the name I most associate with the problem because of their placement on the end credits). Much like Earth Final Conflict, which had a very good first year, and then each additional year got dramatically worse as execs continued to tinker with it until S5 completely sucked and really had no relationship to the previous series (it became Renee Palmer, the Space Vampire Slayer), and was mind-numbingly dumb at times.

Andromeda season one and early season two were a bit rough, but they showed definite potential, but as the show got worse and worse I had to give up, I couldn't bear watching it happen to another show I liked.

I think that was the worst part of Andromeda. It had so much potential in the beginning... and it just got wasted. Not that it was every going to be on the level of, say Firefly, but it had the potential to be decent sci-fi (and it was for a bit).

And now we get to live with the repeats forever.

same here as everyone else watch the first 2 seasons and stop with the second to last ep of season 2. it's a good show in the beginning but there is nothing worth watching once you come to the seoson opening for season 3. since the last ep of season 2 is a not so very interesting cliffhanger just stop befor that and be happy.

Seems nearly unanimous: season 1 and 2 good and pretty good, then the bottom drops out. Think I'll take chance on season 1 - thx again!
