"MAD TO BE SAVED"

Nitcentral's Bulletin Brash Reflections: Andromeda: Season Three: "MAD TO BE SAVED"

The Systems Commonwealth orders Dylan to protect a Mengele-like scientist after a hostage situation develops involving Harper and the "insane" victims of the scientist.

Harper must try to help when Andromeda goes schizophrenic.

Also, the crew must find a scientist who has killed many people.

Hasn't Andromeda been schizophrenic already?


By Lee Jamilkowski (Ljamilkowski) on Thursday, October 24, 2002 - 12:23 am:

Well, that plot point (Andromeda going schizophrenic) didn't happen. It must have been an earlier story idea or something that got dropped.

I haven't quite dared to watch it yet, though I taped it. Is it really as dire as I hear? (It sounds as though the show has jumped from E:FC season one quality (or a bit better) straight to E:FC season five with no intervening steps.

Erase the tape, Jessica, it is that bad.

A few more episodes like this & I'm going to stop watching. Hopefully John de Lancie's episode will be an improvement.

You'd think that a warship would have the ability to lock doors & seal off corridors to prevent people from just wandering around wherever they like.

Tyr makes a grammatical error. He says "from whence". Whence means 'from where' so saying "from whence" is redundent.

If Dr. Yamamoto (or whatever) had this 'trump card' all along, why did he wait until he was locked up to play it? Wouldn't it have made sense to play it for Dylan at the beginning?

Throughout the episode they keep sending crewmembers to get the patients. Why not use those droids??? They can't be killed & taking one hostage wouldn't be a big deal.

Did you notice that in the scene where Tyr Anasazi confronts that boy with the attitude, Tyr's forearm spines are missing? You'd think the Trib would spring for some glue to hold those bad boys in place.


By Jessica on Wednesday, November 27, 2002 - 10:28 pm:

Didn't he officially lose the spikes in If the Wheel is Fixed?

With no particular explanation, but then, that covers the whole episode.
