Rating:  - andromeda Season 3
After I paid for the product. It arrived in days. I have seen all the DVD's in the set and am pleased with them.
Rating: - cowboys and Indians in outer space
II enjoyed the series on TV, but as a typical viewer, I naturally missed some episodes,so I bought the seasons as the came out. Seasons 3 and 2 were among the last put on DVD. I also enjoyed watching those, but I haven't finished.
Rating:  - A mixed bag
Season 3 of Andromeda, like the previous 2 seasons, has some episodes that are worth watching more than once and some that are not. Unfortunately, the number of episodes that are not worth multiple viewings increased dramatically.
Among this season's strong points are episodes like "The Unconquerable Man", which gives a look at what might have been had Dylan Hunt's first officer Gaheris Rhade won their battle - like any decent Gaheris Rhade feature, it attempts to paint him as a man who wanted a good future, but whose actions created a bad one.
"Cui Bono", while not all around great, brings back Beka Valentine's "uncle" Sid - the strongest point about the episode is that the return of this one character brings depth to three characters: Sid, Beka, and Beka's dad. "The Lone and Level Sands" takes the characters to an old Earth ship that has been exploring deep space and manages to take a conflict among its crew and not paint any of the characters as bad people.
Among the bad are episodes like "Vault of the Heavens", where Dylan is drawn by a mysterious voice to a planet where glowing women want to have sex with him (because they must procreate to save their people, of course). "The Illusion of Majesty" features soft porn actress Krista Allen in an entertaining (mostly thanks to Tyr) but ultimately pointless episode.
One of the biggest saving graces in season 3 is Tyr Anasazi, who has always brought an interesting balance to the show with his self ... Read More
Rating: - Andromeda Season 3
Awesome...like one review above said...Andromeda gets better every season. I never watched the series on TV because I was in Japan when it came out but I have watched every episode that has been released on DVD so far and it gets better and better.
Rating: - What can you say about season 3?
About midway through season 2, head writer, executive producer, and let's face it, creator of Andromeda Robert Hewitt Wolfe was jetissoned because Kevin Sorbo wanted to garner more casual viewers, and wanted more screen-time for himself.
Things were just beginning to gather steam with the first two seasons too. The characters were progressing nicely, in fits and starts (see Trance Gemini), and the threads that were to weave an epic story arc began to show. After Wolfe was fired, some peculiar things happen, and as a result season 3 is just what the star wanted, more episodic. But Mr. Sorbo didn't seem to realize the crux of sci-fi fandom-continuity.
After season 3 they seemed to realize their mistake, but it was too late. The trajectory the show was on had changed irrevocably, and I believe, for the worse.
Don't get me wrong, Andromeda is and always has been a great, fun show to watch. But I felt the strength was in the writing, not the action, in the ensemble cast, not in a single star, and in its grand scale. Keith Hamilton-Cobb (Tyr Anasazie) left after this season for precisely these reasons, and the show was greatly diminished in his absence.
