SciFiWorld posted an interview with former Gene Roddenberry's Andromeda star Kevin Sorbo and here are few excerpts
Gilles Nuytenss: My next question: did the storylines from ‘Andromeda', as season one progressed, meet your expectations?
Kevin Sorbo: Yeah. I thought it was fantastic. To cut to the chase, I thought it was a big mistake to get rid of Robert Hewitt Wolfe as our show runner. He made a five year vision for the show and they fired him after two years. That's kind of the studio's way to sort of keep people in their place for ego reasons, I don't know. I was hoping we could see his vision through. I enjoyed the darkness of it, the unpredictability of it, and I enjoyed the universe. Being as evil as it was, I wanted to see how Dylan was going to work his way through with the Magogs and the Nietzscheans, and all the other bad people.
Gilles Nuytens: Were you happy with the ending of the show in its final season?
Kevin Sorbo: It's so hard to please everybody, because everyone is going to have their own opinion. It's like going to soccer game. You're going to have half the people who are going to hate the official and the other half is going to love him. It's never a win/win situation. I liked it for the reason that I think Dylan started to slide back into the person he was in season one. Even though he learned from his crew to be a little less militant and a little more carefree sort to speak, I think he got tired of constantly talking to them into doing basically his vision, what he had hoped for a safer universe. And I like that he sort of became more of a loner, that he went ‘screw you guys, if you're not going to be with me, fine. I'm going to do my own thing. You guys can do your own thing.' I kind of like the ambiguity of the way it ended because to me they left it open for possibly to do a movie or something like that. If that'll happen, I don't know. I'm guessing not. The studio's fallen apart, it's for sale. They also have all kind of problems internally.

The only thing I really remember about Andromeda was the guy with the dreads that I sort of resented for being so good-looking.

The autumn days swung soft around me, like cotton on
my skin. But as the embers of the summer lost their
breath and disappeared, my heart went cold, and
only hollow rhythms resounded from within.
