Well, I finished watching the first four seasons of Andromeda (minus a couple episodes that I deliberately skipped over), and what I have to say is this:

I'm not angry at the way this show was derailed after the first half of the second season -- how it was turned into an incoherent mess with horribly misdeveloped characters and awful continuity -- just incredibly disappointed and very, very, very sad.

I still like the first season-and-a-half of the show, though -- along with a handful of episodes from the third -- and therefore I'm going to try to create my own rewrite of the series sometime in the future, one which stays true to the spirit of the show as it was in the beginning (that'll be an incredibly daunting task for me, though).
