Over the last few years my family and I have binged all of Star Trek, then moved on to Star Trek adjacent shows like The Orville and Stargate. At the moment we’re not really watching anything sci-fi. I was wondering if anyone had recommendations for similar shows (or maybe some books) that fill the void left by Star Trek. In particular I really like the episodes that deal with interacting with other civilizations, diplomacy, and exploration more-so than say, an anomaly episode.
I would advise not watching Andromeda.
Why? It was a good show, and very much in line with what was asked. I may not be a fan of what the lead actor has turned into now, but I still enjoy some of the shows he acted in.
Because I don’t think it’s a good or particularly interesting show.
To each their own :)
