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!

    There it is, Stargate SG-1

    Damn that show starts off slow - most people can’t get past season one. But holy heck does it have an amazing team writing the plots. I thoroughly enjoyed that show. And it’s so underrated. I know I never watched it much when it was on air weekly with new episodes

      I binged all 10 seasons and while the last couple were a drag to get through, I totally enjoyed it. The episodic format is great.

      Also enjoyed Atlantis though I was skeptical of it and the characters at first, but they really grew on me.

      I also enjoyed Universe but it was more of a dark, gritty show along the same vein as BSG. It got canceled pretty quickly so there isn’t much to get into though.

      Yes season 1 is rough, season 2 is a bit battery. Season 3 is where the show really takes off for me.

      Stargate, Star Trek, Star Wars = the holy sci-fi trinity. Seen each countless times in their entirety, always find myself coming back
