Hi all, maybe this community can help recommend some new shows. I’m looking for Star Trek-like ‘world-of-the-week’ stuff.

I’ve already seen the following:

The Orville
The Expanse
Battlestar Galactica
Farscape
Babylon 5 (I forgot that I never finished it, so it’s going back on the menu)
Stargate SG-1 Quantum Leap (looooove Scott Bakula)
Doctor Who (Not all of it, but pretty caught up since Eccleston)
Firefly
Sliders
Foundation (really enjoyed this one, especially the Cleon clones storyline)
Andor (not a big Star Wars guy, but I really liked this series)

Is Andromeda worth watching? What else is out there?
Thanks in advance!

    I’m gonna throw this in here since no one has mentioned it —

    Dark Matter

    A fun SyFy show that was cancelled way too early and run by Joseph Mallozi who contributed to SG-1 and SG: Atlantis.

      I’m always worried watching stuff that’s cancelled too early. Does it end in a decent place?

        Unfortunately it ends with an unresolved cliffhanger. Although I feel like they dropped enough hints that you could kind of imagine how the next season would go.

        Don’t let that stop you. The show sputters here and there, but the story is intriguing. Anyone that complains has clearly never seen seasons 1 & 2 of ST:TNG, and Dark Matter’s entire run is only 39 eps.

        And with all due respect to Brent Spiner, Zoie Palmer as the android is *fantastic*.

        I’ll be honest. Where it ended, I was pretty pissed that I wasn’t going to get a resolution.

        But, am I still glad I watched it? Absolutely.
