It's one of the problems I have with Andromeda. There's a real lack of humour. And Jarriere, unless I missed him.
Damn, I *knew* there was something missing!
The 2nd season is a lot better than the first.
Though the 2nd-season opening credits/music are infinitely worse.
In fact, the cliff-hangerat the end of the 1st season was the first episode that had any tension. And there is a story arc now in the 2nd season, even if it is about a big, unquestionably bad enemy with a fully operational death star (well, you know what I mean).
I'm rather hoping that we might see more of the Pyreans. A non-humanoid alien species, hurrah!
But now I hear that we may not see any more of Andromeda for ages, as Sky has thought of a new excuse to drop it.
And speaking of time gaps, which we are now, that missing time between Spacefall and C.A. has a parallel in Andromeda. In the 1st season cliffhanger episode, Beka, has a short curly (see, there's another link) blonde bob. At the beginning of the 2nd season, which immediately followed, on both Sky 1 and series time, that cliffhanger, she has a long plait
Didn't Cally manage a severe hair cut between series?
And what is it with these hair-scraped-back-into-a-plait looks? Aeryn has suddenly done it, too, and I don't like it at all.
